Installation Requirements

  • Phillips screwdriver
  • Standard-sized, 19″ wide rack with a minimum of 1U height available
  • For indoor applications, use Category 5 (or above) UTP cabling approved for indoor use.
  • For outdoor applications, shielded Category 5 (or above) cabling should be used for all wired Ethernet connections and should be grounded through the AC ground of the power supply.

We recommend that you protect your networks from harmful outdoor environments and destructive ESD events with industrial-grade, shielded Ethernet cable from Ubiquiti. For more details, visit: ui.com/toughcable

Note:
Although the cabling can be located outdoors, the UniFi Switch it self should be housed inside a protective enclosure.
