Installation Requirements
Mounting accessories and drain wire are not included.
Pole-Mounting
• Drill with a 4.5 mm Drill Bit
• 7 mm Socket Wrench or Screwdriver
Wall-Mounting
• (2) Screws (≤ 5 mm Screw Head)
• (1) Drain Wire, Optional (≤ 16 AWG, ≤ 40 cm)
Cables
• 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
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 professional
installer’s responsibility to follow local country regulations, including operation within legal
frequency channels, output power, and Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS) requirements.

Quick Start
Guide
• Surge protection should be used for all outdoor installations.
We recommend that you use two Ethernet Surge Protectors,
model ETH-SP, one near the N-SW and the other at the entry
point to the building. The ETH-SP will absorb power surges
and safely discharge them into the ground.

Port Description
PoE In RJ45 port supports 10/100/1000 Ethernet
PoE Out 1-3 RJ45 ports support 10/100/1000 Ethernet
connections and supports 24V, 2-pair passive
PoE to power the switch. We recommend
supplying power with a POE-24-24W PoE
adapter (not included) to allow the maximum
power consumption to be 24W.
connections and provide passive 24V, 2-pair
PoE passthrough for up to 24W PoE output.
WARNING: PoE is always active. Before connecting
a device to a PoE Out port, ensure that the device
supports passive PoE and the supplied voltage.
WARNING: Do NOT provide more than a total of 24W
PoE output (24V, 1A); otherwise this will damage
the NanoSwitch.

Ground Bonding Point The NanoSwitch must be grounded
in one of the following ways:
• Use the Self-Tapping Screw to ground the NanoSwitch
directly to a grounded metal pole or structure.
• Use the Machine Screw and Nut to attach a drain wire (not
included) that is connected to a remote grounding block or
structure.
Connect a Drain Wire (Optional)
If a drain wire is used to ground the NanoSwitch, attach it to
the Ground Bonding Point with the Self-Tapping Screw and nut.
At the installation site, secure the other end of the drain wire
to a grounded mast, pole, tower, or grounding bar.
Note: The drain wire should be as short as possible and
no longer than one meter in length.
