Installation Requirements
• Pole-mounting: Two metal straps (not
included)
• Shielded Category 5 (or above) cabling with
drain wire should be used for all outdoor
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 camera and the
other at the entry point to the building. The
ETH-SP will absorb power surges and safely
discharge them into the ground.

camera by turning the Tilt/Mount Ring
counterclockwise.
2. Mark the mounting holes on the wall or
ceiling.
Note: If you are running the cable along
the wall or ceiling, position the Cable
Slot towards the direction you want the
cabling to run. For outdoor installations,
position the Cable Slot downward.
3. Use a 7 mm (¼") drill bit to drill the
mounting holes in the wall or ceiling.
Note: If
you are running the Ethernet
cable through the wall, cut a hole
centered between the mounting
holes that is large enough to feed the
cable through.
4. Insert a Screw Anchor into each mounting
hole.
5. If you are feeding the Ethernet cable
through the wall or ceiling, do so now and
feed it through the Mounting Base.
If not, feed the Ethernet cable through the
Mounting Base and place the cable in the
Cable Slot.
IMPORTANT: If
camera outdoors, create a drip loop for
the cable below the camera to prevent
water ingress.
6. Fasten the Mounting Base to the wall or
ceiling using two Self-Tapping Screws.
