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 professional installer’s responsibility to follow local country regulations, including operation within legal frequency channels, output power, and Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS) requirements.
Installation Requirements
The NanoBeam can be mounted on a pole or to a wall. A Metal Strap (included) is used for pole-mounting. For wall mounting, a suitable fastener such as a screw or bolt (not included) is required.
•Pole-mounting: 7 mm socket wrench or screwdriver
•Wall-mounting: wall fastener (not included)
•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 Networks. For more details, visit www.ubnt.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 NanoBeam and the other at the entry point to the building. The ETH-SP will absorb power surges and safely discharge them into the ground.

Ethernet Port
(10/100/1000 Mbps)
Reset Button To reset to factory defaults, press and hold the Reset button for more than 10 seconds while the NanoBeam is powered on. Alternatively, the NanoBeam may be reset remotely via a Reset button located on the bottom of the
Gigabit PoE Adapter.
Ethernet Port This Gigabit Ethernet port is used to connect the power and should be connected to the LAN and DHCP server. Power can be provided by any of the following:
•Gigabit PoE adapter (included)
•Ubiquiti Networks EdgeSwitch®
•Ubiquiti Networks EdgeRouter™ PoE
LEDs
Power The Power LED will light blue when the device is connected to a power source.
Ethernet The Ethernet LED will light steady blue when an active Ethernet connection is made and flash when there is activity.
Signal In airOS®, you can modify the threshold value for the wireless signal strength LEDs 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 threshold values for these LEDs are shown below:
-94 dBm -80 dBm -73 dBm -65 dBm
Hardware Installation
The NanoBeam can be mounted on a pole or to a wall. Perform the steps for the appropriate installation:
Note: The NanoBeam can also be mounted inside a window using the NanoBeam Window Mount, model NBE-19-WM (sold separately). For instructions, see the NanoBeam Window Mount Quick Start Guide.
Pole-Mount
1.Insert the Ball Joint Mount into the Lock Ring with the threads of the Lock Ring facing the ball joint.
2.Open the Metal Strap and feed it through the base of the
Ball Joint Mount.
3.Wrap the Metal Strap around the pole. Use a 7 mm socket wrench to turn the screw clockwise and securely fasten the clamp to the pole.
4.Attach the NanoBeam to the Ball Joint Mount and turn the Lock Ring to secure it. Keep the Lock Ring loose enough to allow the NanoBeam to pivot for aiming.
Wall-Mount
The NanoBeam must be mounted directly to a wood stud or other structurally stable surface to avoid damage to the mounting hole when you adjust the aim.
Optional Accessory
To enhance stability, you can use the NanoBeam Wall Mount Kit, model NBE-WMK (sold separately).
Note: Center screw included. Two optional screws (not included) provide additional stability.
Installation Instructions
1.Mark the desired location of the mounting point.
2.If needed, drill a pilot hole for the fastener (not included).
3.Insert the Ball Joint Mount into the Lock Ring with the threads of the Lock Ring facing the ball joint.
4.If you are using the optional NanoBeam Wall Mount Kit, then skip to step b.
a.To attach the Ball Joint Mount to the wall, insert a fastener (not included) through the center of the ball joint, and into the wall. Securely tighten the fastener. Proceed to step 5.
b.To attach the Ball Joint Mount to the wall, insert the Wall Mount Kit screw through the center of the ball joint, through the Wall Mount Kit plate, and into the wall. Securely tighten the screw.
