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
• Surge protection should be used for all outdoor installations. We recommend
that you use two Ethernet Surge Protectors, model ETH-SP, one near the
NanoStation and the other at the entry point to the building. The ETH-SP will
absorb power surges and safely discharge them into the ground.
