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

LEDs

Power  The Power LED will light steady green when the PowerBridge is connected to a power source.

Ethernet  The Ethernet LED will light steady green when an active Ethernet connection is made and flash when there is activity.

GPS  The GPS LED lights up green when the GPS signal strength can sustain AirSync operation. This requires a minimum of 3 satellite connections.

Signal  The first Signal LED is lit when the wireless signal strength is above -94 dBm, the second LED when the wireless signal strength is above -77 dBm, and the third LED when the wireless signal signal strength is above -65 dBm.

Hardware Installation

Note: By default, the Signal LEDs represent the wireless signal strength with default threshold values. In the airOS interface, you can modify the threshold values for each LED or configure the LEDs to display the GPS connection quality instead. The settings can be configured on the

Advanced tab under Signal LED Thresholds.

Hardware Installation

To install the PowerBridge M5 X3, perform the following steps:

1.Use a flathead screwdriver to unlock the cover. Turn the screw counter-clockwise until it is loose. The screw remains attached to the cover. Lift the cover by pressing down and raising it up.

2.Connect an Ethernet cable and the GPS Patch Antenna. There are grooves for the cables on the cover. Align them properly and slide the cover back on and secure it with the screw.
