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 EdgeSwitch itself
should be housed inside a protective enclosure.

RJ45 ports support 10/100/1000 Ethernet connections.
PoE In (Port 1) Supports 24V Passive PoE input.
PoE Out (Port 8) Supports 24V Passive PoE passthrough.
Hot-swappable SFP ports support 1 Gbps connections. If you use a copper
Ethernet module (example: UF-RJ45-1G), power off the EdgeSwitch before
insertion; otherwise there may be a device reboot.
To reset to factory defaults:
1. Disconnect power from the EdgeSwitch.
2. Reconnect power while holding the Reset button. The port LEDs will light up in
sequential order (this takes approximately five seconds).
3. When the port 1 LED flashes again, release the Reset button.
Connect the included Power Adapter to the Power port.
Ground bonding point for an optional ground wire.
Hardware Installation
The optional EdgeRouter™ Rackmount Kit, model ER-RMKIT, is sold separately.
WARNING: The EdgeSwitch ES-10X must not be stacked. Do not place it
on top of another switch. Do not place anything on top of the ES-10X.

Connecting Power
Note: Only one power source can be used at any one time. With both power
sources connected, the input with the highest voltage will be used; the other
power source defaults to backup.

Accessing the Configuration Interface
The device is set to DHCP by default, so it will try to automatically obtain an IP
address. If that fails, then it will use the default fallback IP address, 192.168.1.20.
Proceed to the appropriate section, DHCP or “Fallback IP Address”:
DHCP
Use one of the following methods:
Set up the DHCP server to provide a specific IP address to the device based on
its MAC address (on the label).
Let the device obtain an IP address and then check the DHCP server to see
which IP address was assigned.
ES-10X Quick Start Guide

To log in, follow these steps:
1. Launch your web browser. Type the appropriate IP address in the address field.
Press enter (PC) or return (Mac).
2. Enter ubnt in the Username and Password fields. Click Sign In.
The EdgeSwitch Configuration Interface will appear. Customize additional settings as
needed. For 24V Passive PoE configuration, refer to “Configuring PoE Settings”.
For more information, refer to the EdgeSwitch documentation, which is available at
ui.com/download/edgemax
Fallback IP Address
1. Ensure that your computer (or other host system) is connected to the device.
2. Configure the Ethernet adapter on your host system with a static IP address on
the 192.168.1.x subnet.
3. Launch your web browser. Type the appropriate IP address in the address field
(192.168.1.20 is the default fallback IP address). Press enter (PC) or return (Mac).
4. Enter ubnt in the Username and Password fields. Click Sign In.
5. The EdgeSwitch Configuration Interface will appear. Click the System Settings
tab.
6. Change the IP Address to a unique IP address. Click Apply.
Note: If you change the IP settings, then the session will be cut off, and you
will need to reconnect to the device using the new IP address.
Customize additional settings as needed. For 24V Passive PoE configuration, refer to
“Configuring PoE Settings”. For more information, refer to the EdgeSwitch
documentation, which is available at ui.com/download/edgemax
Configuring PoE Settings
The PoE setting for port 8 is set to Off by default.
WARNING: Before activating PoE, ensure that the connected device
supports passive PoE and the supplied voltage.
On the Dashboard tab, click the PoE setting of port 8. Then select 24V.
UISP Management
You can manage your device using UISP, which lets you configure, monitor, upgrade,
and back up your devices using a single application. Get started at uisp.ui.com
