Installation Requirements
•Phillips screwdriver
•7 mm socket wrench
•Ground wire – min. 10 AWG (5 mm2) and max. length: 1 m. As a safety precaution, ground the EdgePoint to a grounded mast, pole, tower, or grounding bar.
•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 harmful outdoor environments and destructive ESD events with industrial grade, shielded Ethernet cable from Ubiquiti Networks. For more details, visit: www.ubnt.com/toughcable
TERMS OF USE: 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.

Hardware Overview
Power Options
Either the VDC input or PoE input is used at any one time. If both input types are connected, only the input type with the highest voltage will be used; the other can be used as a backup. Any of the input options can power any of the output options.
Power Input Options
•24VDC, 3A
•24V, 1.4A on eth0 (PoE In)
Power Output Options
•EdgePoint (required)
•Passive 24V, 2-Pair PoE on eth0-eth4
The number of devices that can be powered depends on the power consumption of the specific devices. For example, if you provide 24VDC, 1.25A, then you have 30W of power. If the EdgePoint uses 7W (Max. Power Consumption), then you have 23W available for passive PoE output. Please check product specifications for the power consumption values to use in your calculations.
