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.
