headphone port (ground)

Spanish translation: Puerto de auriculares (a tierra)

English term or phrase: headphone port (ground)
¡Hola a todos!
Estoy traduciendo las instrucciones de uso de un reproductor de música y en una parte se habla de los "puertos de equilibrio" ("balanced ports") y dice lo siguiente:

Connect the mp3 to an external device using the headphone port ***(ground)*** and the balanced audio port (LR).

Mi opción fue "conexión a tierra", que es la única traducción que encontré para "ground" en este contexto. ¿Podrían decirme si mi opción es correcta o, caso contrario, orientarme sobre cómo habría que traducirla?

¡Muchas gracias de antemano!

Explanation:
Estás en lo cierto, en este contexto cada vez que veas "ground" se refiere a que la conexión va a tierra, es decir, uno de sus pines va a la toma de tierra para evitar ruidos eléctricos.
