|
WARNING: Until ready for use, keep modules and fiber patch cables covered using the included protective caps to ensure the connections stay clean. |
---|
|
WARNING: DO NOT connect the device directly to a UFiber GPON module (UF-GP-B+ or UF-GP-C+). Doing so will damage the device optics. Ensure that the device’s received signal level never exceeds -8 dBm. Use a UFiber PLC Splitter to add attenuation as needed. |

Accessing the Configuration Interface
- Ensure that your computer (or other host system) is connected to the device.
- 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 http://192.168.1.1 in the address field. Press enter (PC) or return (Mac).
- Enter ubnt in the Username and Password fields. Click Login.
Customize settings as needed. For more information, refer to the UFiber resources, which are available at: http://ubnt.link/UFiber-Support
OLT Compatibility Profiles
The device is compatible with most major brands of OLT (Optical Line Terminal) and offers four compatibility profiles. By default the device is set to Profile 1 - Ubiquiti UFiber OLT. For other brands, manually select Profile 2, 3, or 4.
- Log into the UFiber Configuration Interface.
- Go to Settings .
- On the Network screen, click the System tab.
- Select the appropriate profile from the OLT Profile drop-down menu:
- Profile 1 Ubiquiti UFiber OLT
- Profile 2 Other brands
- Profile 3 Other brands
- Profile 4 Other brands
Note: For more information, visit: https://ubnt.link/Supported-3rd-Party-OLTs
- Click Save Changes.
The device will automatically restart with the new profile.
