with industrial-grade shielded Ethernet cable from Ubiquiti
Networks. For more details, visit www.ubnt.com/toughcable
Hardware Installation
To install the PowerBridgeM, perform the following steps:
1. The Port Cover is hinged to the PowerBridgeM and locked
with a screw. Use a flathead screwdriver to turn the locking
screw counter-clockwise until it is loose. Open the cover by
sliding it down and raising it up.
2. Connect an Ethernet cable to the Ethernet Port.
3. Close the Port Cover and lock it in place by turning the
locking screw clockwise.
4. Insert two Carriage Bolts into each Pole Bracket.

5. Connect the Pole Brackets to the U-Brackets using the four
Flange Bolts.
6. Mount the PowerBridgeM to the pole:
a. Position the Carriage Bolts around the pole at the
mounting location.
b. Slide a Pole Clamp onto each pair of Carriage Bolts.
c. Hand-tighten a Flange Nut on each Carriage Bolt.
Note: The mounting assembly can accommodate a
Ø 1.25" - 2.2" pole.
7. Rotate the PowerBridgeM to the correct azimuth towards
the other end of the wireless link.
