USP LED
USP Connect DC Input
Power Port
Hot-swappable SFP+ ports support 1/10 Gbps connections.
This button serves two functions for the UniFi Switch:
Restart Press and release the Reset button quickly.
Restore to Factory Default Settings Press and hold the Reset button for more than
five seconds.
The LED lights up blue when there is an active power connection on the USP DC input.
This DC input provides redundant power when the UniFi Switch is connected to the
UniFi SmartPower Redundant Power System, model USP-RPS, via the USP Cable (not
included). If there is an AC power loss or internal power supply failure, the UniFi Switch
will draw power from the USP-RPS instead.
Connect the included Power Cord to the Power port.
Installation Requirements
Phillips screwdriver
Standard-sized, 19" wide rack with a minimum of 1U height available
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.
