Grounding screens with 2-pin power supplies

Wed Mar 10, 2021 2:11 pm

Hi,

I'm trying to figure out a way of grounding ethernet screens and units when using the 2-pin PSU and floppy injector that Mikrotik supplies. Connecting to a PC with grounded chassis or a patch panel is not a problem but when connecting 2 POE devices (I've recently been connecting SXT bridge to wAP) or even an LHG to a desktop router, then all is on 2-pin and floats.

I could replace the PSU with integrated PSU/POE on a 3-pin or get the rather expensive metal cased inline couplers and somehow attach a ground wire but then clients would start to complain about us throwing out the included PSU and selling them another!

What do other installers do?

Cheers,
Adam
