Quick Start Guide

Installation Requirements
• 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 Networks. For more details, visit:

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do
not expose the EdgeRouter to rain or moisture.
Note: Although the cabling can be located outdoors,
the EdgeRouter itself should be housed inside a
protective enclosure.
