Ports

10 GbE

The 10 GbE port is a 1/10 Gbps Ethernet port used to connect to the LAN and DHCP server. It can also be used to connect the power.

Note: The UWB-XG-BK can be powered using an 802.3bt PoE switch or the included Gigabit PoE adapter. For instructions, see Connecting Power.

1 GbE

The 1 GbE port is a 10/100/1000 Ethernet port used for bridging. It can also be used to connect the power.

Reset

The Reset button serves two functions for the UWB-XG-BK:

  • Restart Press and release the Reset button quickly.
  • Restore to Factory Default Settings Press and hold the Reset button for more than five seconds.

VESA Mounting

If you choose to use your own mount, remove the four M4 x 10 screws from the back of the UWB-XG-BK and detach the pre-installed mount.

Hardware Installation

Note: The UWB-XG model may be installed indoors or outdoors; however, the UWB-XG-BK model must only be installed indoors. Due to its darker color, it can potentially overheat if installed outdoors.

Pole Mount

  1. Proceed to Connecting Ethernet.

Wall Mount

To mount the UWB‑XG‑BK on a wall, securely attach the Adjustment Bracket to the wall using the four Lag Screws.

Note: The Adjustment Bracket must attach directly to a stud or other stable structure.

  1. Proceed to Connecting Ethernet.

Connecting Ethernet

Note: If you are using TOUGHCable, we recommend attaching the TOUGHCable Connector(s) after you insert the cable(s) into the cable gland(s).

The cable gland is comprised of the following components:

  1. Repeat steps 1-14 to connect an Ethernet cable to the 1 GbE port if one of the following conditions applies:
    • You will use the 1 GbE port for bridging.
    • You will use the 1 GbE port for 802.3bt PoE.
    • You will use the included Gigabit PoE adapter to power the UWB-XG-BK.

Note: By default, the UWB-XG-BK is set to 15 dBi for its small-cell gain. To switch to its large-cell gain of 10 dBi, use the UniFi Network Application.

Connecting Power

IMPORTANT: Using the 10GbE port requires enabling flow control on the upstream switch port’s configuration for maximum performance.
