Installation Requirements

7 mm socket wrench
S2 hex wrench
Ground wire – min. 10 AWG (5 mm2) and max. length: 1 m. As a safety precaution, ground the EdgePoint to a grounded mast, pole, tower, or grounding bar.
Shielded Category 5 (or above) cabling should be used for all wired Ethernet connections and should be grounded through the AC ground of the PoE.
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

Power Options

Either the VDC or PoE input type is used at any one time. If both are connected, only the input type with the highest voltage will be used; the other can be used as a backup.

Both PoE inputs can be used at the same time. If there is a voltage difference, the higher-voltage source will be used first. The voltage from the initial source will drop as the load increases. When the voltage drops to the same level as the lower-voltage source, then the lower-voltage source will also start providing power.

Power Input Options

54VDC, 6A
54V, 1.5A on eth0 (PoE In)
54V, 1.5A on PoE In

Power Output Options

EdgePoint (required)
Passive 54/24V, 4-Pair PoE on eth1-eth2
Passive 24V, 2-Pair PoE on
eth3-eth7

The number of devices that can be powered depends on the power consumption of the specific devices and the power input option. Example: If you provide 54VDC, 1.5A, then you have 81W of power. If the EdgePoint uses 40W (Max. Power Consumption), then you have 41W available for passive PoE output. Check product specifications for the power consumption values to use in your calculations.

Console Port

RJ45 serial console port for Command Line Interface (CLI) management.

	Note: Remove the protective plug from the Console port before use.

DC Input

Terminal block connector uses auto-polarity detection and accepts +42 to +56VDC, 6A input (including the Ubiquiti EdgePower™, model EP-54V-150W) to power the EdgePoint and passive PoE output. -48V is NOT supported.

PoE In Port

RJ45 port accepts 54V, 1.5A PoE input from a secondary PoE adapter (not included) to power the EdgePoint and passive PoE output.

PoE In / eth0 Port

RJ45 port supports a 10/100/1000 Ethernet connection and accepts data and 54V, 1.5A PoE input from the included Gigabit PoE Adapter to power the EdgePoint and passive PoE output.

eth1 - eth2 Ports (54/24V PoE Out)

RJ45 ports support 10/100/1000 Ethernet connections and passive 54/24V, 4-pair PoE output for airFiber® devices.

eth3 - eth7 Ports (24V PoE Out)

RJ45 ports support 10/100/1000 Ethernet connections and passive 24V, 2-pair PoE output for airMAX® devices.

RJ45 port eth6 and SFP 1 port are combination ports; eth6 is active only if the SFP 1 port is empty.

RJ45 port eth7 and SFP 2 port are combination ports; eth7 is active only if the SFP 2 port is empty.

USB Port

Reserved for future use.

SFP 1 - 2 Ports

SFP ports are hot-swappable and support 100 Mbps or Gigabit fiber SFP modules.

If an SFP module is plugged into the SFP 1 port, then the SFP port is active, and the RJ45 port eth6 is deactivated.

If an SFP module is plugged into the SFP 2 port, then the SFP port is active, and the RJ45 port eth7 is deactivated.

	Note: For installations with extreme temperatures, please use industrial-grade fiber SFP modules.

Pole-Mount Bracket
Used for pole-mounting or in combination with the included Wall-Mount Bracket for wall-mounting.
PicoStation®M2HP Slot
Used for mounting an optional PicoStationM2HP (not included) to the back of the EdgePoint. (You can use the PicoStationM2HP for wireless management of the EdgePoint.)
Ground Bonding Point
Used to secure a ground wire (not included).

Attaching the Cable Sleeve

	Note: You have two options for using a 2.0-inch NPT (National Pipe Thread) male conduit (not included): Use the conduit instead of the Cable Sleeve. Use the conduit to extend the Cable Sleeve.

Hardware Installation

Mount the EdgePoint on a pole or to a wall:

"Pole-Mounting"
"Wall-Mounting"

Pole-Mounting

Proceed to "Grounding the EdgePoint".

Wall-Mounting

	Note: The Wall-Mount Bracket must be anchored directly to a stud or other structurally stable surface.

Grounding the EdgePoint

Connecting Ethernet

	Note: PoE is disabled by default.

Connecting SFP

For information about compatible fiber SFP modules, visit: ubnt.link/SFP_DAC_Compatibility

	Note: The corresponding RJ45 port will be deactivated.

Connecting Power

Proceed to the appropriate section:

"Connecting to the VDC Input"
"Connecting Power Using PoE"

	WARNING: -48V is NOT supported.

Connecting to the VDC Input

Connecting Power Using PoE

The following instructions show the PoE In / eth0 port; however, you can use the PoE In port above eth0 instead.

Optional

Accessing the EdgeOS Configuration Interface

The EdgeOS® configuration interface can be accessed via DHCP or static IP address assignment. By default, eth1 is set up as a DHCP client, while eth0 is assigned a static IP address of 192.168.1.1. To configure the EdgePoint, proceed to the appropriate section: DHCP or "Static IP Address".

DHCP

Use one of the following methods:

Set up the DHCP server to provide a specific IP address to the EdgePoint based on its MAC address (on the label).
Let the EdgePoint obtain an IP address and then check the DHCP server to see which IP address was assigned.
1. Connect an Ethernet cable from eth1 on the EdgePoint to a LAN segment that has an existing DHCP server.
2. Launch your web browser. Enter the appropriate IP address in the address field. Press enter (PC) or return (Mac).
3. Enter ubnt in the Username and Password fields. Read the Ubiquiti License Agreement, and check the box next to I agree to the terms of this License Agreement to accept it. Click Login.

The EdgeOS Configuration Interface will appear, allowing you to customize your settings as needed. For more information, refer to the EdgeOS User Guide, which is available at ui.com/download/edgemax

For more information on PoE configuration, refer to "Configuring PoE Settings".

Static IP Address

Connect an Ethernet cable from the Ethernet port on your computer to the port labeled eth0 on the EdgePoint. (If you are using PoE, connect your computer to the EdgePoint via a PoE switch, or to the adapter’s LAN port.)
Configure the Ethernet adapter on your host system with a static IP address on the 192.168.1.x subnet.
Launch your web browser. Type https://192.168.1.1 in the address field, and press enter (PC) or return (Mac).
