Power Cord
Package Contents
Installation Requirements
The GPS Antenna needs to have clear line of sight to the sky for proper GPS operation.
Shielded Category 5 (or above) cabling with drain wire 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 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 RocketPrism and the other at
the entry point to the building. The ETH-SP will absorb power surges and safely discharge
them into the ground.

on the Wireless tab under Signal LED Thresholds. Each LED will light when the wireless
signal strength is equal to or greater than the LED’s threshold value. The default values are
shown below:
GPS The GPS LED will light steady blue when the GPS signal strength is sufficient. This
requires a minimum of three satellite connections.
LAN The LAN LED will light steady blue when an active Ethernet connection is made to the
LAN port and flash when there is activity.
Power The Power LED will light blue when the device is connected to a power source.
To reset to factory defaults, press and hold the Reset button for more than 10 seconds
while the device is already powered on. Alternatively, the device may be reset remotely
via a Reset button located on the bottom of the Gigabit PoE adapter.
The Gigabit Ethernet port is used to connect the power and should be connected to the
LAN and DHCP server.
Hardware Installation
The Rocket is designed to mount directly onto a Ubiquiti airMAX RocketDish™ antenna for
Point-to-Point use or an airMAX Sector antenna for Point-to-MultiPoint use.
