Chapter 3 Lightning Protection
3.1 Cabling Reasonably
In the actual network environment, you may need cable outdoors and indoors, and
the requirements for cabling outdoors and indoors are different. A reasonable cabling
system can decrease the damage of induced lightning to devices.
Note:
It's not recommended using Ethernet cables outdoors. When cabling outdoors,
please use a signal lightning arrester.
■
Requirements for Cabling Outdoors
■
Aerial cabling without safeguard is not allowed.
■
It’s not allowed cabling down the building to connect network devices in different
floors.
■
Outdoor cables should be buried and paved to the indoor through basement. A piece of
steel wire should be paved underground along the pipe and connected to the lightning
protection terminal of the building for shielding. Before connecting the cable to the
device, install a signal lightning arrester on the corresponding port.
■
When an aerial cable is set up, the cable should be through a metal pipe (15m long
at least) before coming into the building. The two ends of this metal pipe should be
grounded. Before connecting the cable to the device, install a signal lightning arrester
on the corresponding port.
■
It’s not necessary to pave STP cables through pipes. The shielded layer of STP cable
should be well grounded. Before connecting the cable to the device, install a signal
lightning arrester on the corresponding port.

JetStream Gigabit Smart Switch
Lightning Protection
15
■
Requirements for Cabling Indoors
When cabling indoors, keep a certain distance away from the devices that may cause
high-frequency interferences, such as down-conductor cable, powerline, power
transformer and electromotor.
■
The main cable should be paved in the metal raceway of the access shaft. When
cabling, keep the loop area formed by the cable itself as small as possible.
■
Requirements for the distance between Ethernet cable and other pipelines are shown
in the table.

Equipotential Bonding
Equipotential Bonding is the practice of intentionally electrically connecting all earthed
systems to the same grounding grid or connecting the grounding grids of all the
earthed systems together through the ground or overground metal so as to create
an earthed equipotential zone. When lightning occurs, the high voltage produced by
lightning current in all systems will meanwhile exist in their ground cables, and thus all
ground cables have the same electrical potential and basically eliminate the electric
strikes between the systems.
The figure below illustrates how to practice equipotential bonding in a network.
Figure 3-3 Equipotential Bonding
Grounding Terminal Equipotential Bonding Cable
Grounding Bar Ground Cable
When equipotential bonding, please note that the cable should be copper wrapped
Kelly with its area being 6mm
2
at least. The shorter cable the better, and use a
grounding bar to establish an equipotential bonding point.
Note:
The equipotential bonding cable and ground cable are not provided with our
product. If needed, please self purchase it.
Use Lightning Arrester
Power lightning arrester and signal lightning arrester are used for lighting protection.
Power lightning arrester is used for limiting the voltage surge due to a lightning. If an
outdoor AC power cord should be directly connected to the device, please use a power
lightning arrester.
Note:
Power lightning arrester is not provided with our product. If needed, please self
