GPS Patch Antenna Quick Start Guide
Installation Requirements
• The GPS Patch Antenna needs to have clear line of sight to
thesky.
• 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

Hardware Overview
LEDs
Power The Power LED will light steady green when
the RocketM5 GPS is connected to a power source.
Primary Ethernet The first Ethernet LED will light
steady green when an active Ethernet connection
is made to the Primary Ethernet Port and flash when
there is activity.
Secondary Ethernet The second Ethernet LED
will light steady green when an active Ethernet
connection is made to the Secondary Ethernet Port.
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 ‑65 dBm.
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.
