cabling should be used for all wired Ethernet connections
and should be grounded through the AC ground of the
power supply.

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:

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock,

do not expose this product to rain or moisture.

Note: Although the cabling can be located outdoors,

the U-LTE itself should be housed inside a protective
enclosure.

Hardware Installation

The U-LTE can be mounted in three ways:

• Screw Mount

• “Adhesive Mount”

• “Desktop Mount”

Screw Mount

1. Mark two holes set 22 mm apart.

U-LTE. Then slide the U-LTE down to lock it into place.

Connecting Ethernet

Connect an Ethernet cable to the Main port on the U-LTE and

an 802.3at PoE+ switch, such as a UniFi PoE Switch.

Configuration

Overview

You will do the following:

• Adopt the U-LTE in the UniFi Controller software.

• Set up your LTE account. (The first month is free with use of
the SIM activation billing portal.)

• Enable USG virtual WAN failover. (This requires the UniFi

Security Gateway, model USG or USG-PRO-4.)

• Select the configured networks that are allowed to use LTE
failover.

• Forward to the billing portal: unifi.ubnt.com/settings/lte

If the primary WAN 1 or 2 goes offline, then the configured

networks fail over to the U-LTE.

Instructions

1. In the UniFi Controller, click the Devices tab. Select the

U-LTE and click Adopt.

2. Click the U-LTE to view device details.

3. Click the Settings icon to access configuration settings.
