Installation Requirements
• GPS antenna (RM5-Ti only) must have a clear line of sight
to the sky.
• Shielded Category 5 (or above) cabling should be used for
all wired Ethernet connections and should be grounded
through the AC ground of the PoE.
We recommend that you protect your networks from the
most brutal environments and devastating ESD attacks
with industrial-grade shielded Ethernet cable from Ubiquiti
Networks. For more details, visit

TERMS OF USE: Ubiquiti radio devices must be professionally installed. Shielded Ethernet
cable and earth grounding must be used as conditions of product warranty. TOUGHCable is
designed for outdoor installations. It is the customer’s responsibility to follow local country
regulations, including operation within legal frequency channels, output power, and Dynamic
Frequency Selection (DFS) requirements.

Signal In airOS, you can modify the wireless
signal strength threshold values for each LED on
the Advanced tab under Signal LED Thresholds,
or you can configure the LEDs to display the GPS
connection quality instead (RM5-Ti only). The
default values are shown below:
LED will light green when the wireless
signal strength is above -65 dBm.
LED will light green when the wireless
signal strength is above -71 dBm.
LED will light green when the wireless
signal strength is above -77 dBm.
LED will light green when the wireless
signal strength is above -82 dBm.
LED will light green when the wireless
signal strength is above -88 dBm.
LED will light green when the wireless
signal strength is above -94 dBm.
GPS (RM5-Ti only) The GPS LED indicates
airSync™activity. Requires three or more satellite
connections.
Secondary Ethernet The secondary Ethernet
LED will light steady green when an active
Ethernet connection is made to the Secondary
Ethernet port and flash when there is activity.
Main Ethernet The main Ethernet LED will
light steady green when an active Ethernet
connection is made to the Main Ethernet port and
flash when there is activity.
Power The Power LED will light green when the
device is connected to a power source.
