Installation Requirements

• GPS antenna (RM5-Ti only) needs to have a clear line of sight to
the sky.

• 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
