Power Cord
Installation Requirements
Drill, 6 mm drill bit, and Phillips screwdriver (wall-mounting)
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.

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

Note: PoE is disabled by default on all numbered ports and is not available on the
Management port. To enable PoE on the appropriate ports, use the Ports tab in the
Configuration Interface.

Accessing the Configuration Interface
Connect to the Configuration Interface:
1. Ensure that your computer (or other host machine) is connected to the Management port
on the EdgeSwitch.
Note: By default, you can configure the EdgeSwitch via any port; however, we
recommend the Management port. (Access to the Configuration Interface can be
limited to the Management port only. You can configure this setting on the
Device tab.)
2. Configure the Ethernet adapter on your host system with a static IP address on the
192.168.1.x subnet (e.g., 192.168.1.100).
3. Launch your web browser. Type https://192.168.1.20 in the address field. Press enter
(PC) or return (Mac).
4. Enter ubnt in the Username and Password fields. Click Login.

The Configuration Interface will appear and allow you to customize your settings. You can
enable PoE on the Ports tab.
You can also manage your device using the Ubiquiti® Network Management System. UNMS™
lets you configure, monitor, upgrade, and back up your devices using a single application.

Electrical Safety Information
1. Compliance is required with respect to voltage, frequency, and current requirements
indicated on the manufacturer’s label. Connection to a different power source than those
specified may result in improper operation, damage to the equipment or pose a fire
hazard if the limitations are not followed.
2. There are no operator serviceable parts inside this equipment. Service should be provided
only by a qualified service technician.
