Grounding device prevents electrostatic discharge

The LAN static discharge unit grounding device eliminates potentially damaging electrostatic discharges from newly installed telecommunications backbone and horizontal cabling. Ungrounded indoor telecommunications cabling can act as a capacitor capable of storing an electrical charge that can cause malfunction or damage to electronic equipment and semiconductor devices. This unit includes a grounding wire lug, which is bonded to a grounded rack or cabinet that is connected to building's grounding and bonding busbar network. It drains electrostatic charges to the ground.Anixter Inc.
