|
Secondary |
This Gigabit Ethernet port is used for bridging and can provide passive PoE to a device. |
Main |
This Gigabit Ethernet port is used to connect the power and should be connected to the LAN and DHCP server. 803.2at PoE+ can be provided by an 802.3at PoE+ switch, such as a UniFi PoE Switch. |
LCD Screen |
Displays status information, including the LTE signal strength. |
Installation Requirements
- Phillips screwdriver
- Wall-mounting (optional): drill with 6 mm drill bit
- For WAN failover:
- UniFi Dream Machine, model UDM
- UniFi Security Gateway, model USG, USG-PRO-4, or USG-XG-8
- UniFi cloud account
- Activation of Ubiquiti LTE data plan
- For indoor applications, use Category 5 (or above) UTP cabling approved for indoor use.
- For outdoor applications, shielded Category 5 (or above) 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. For more details, visit: ui.com/toughcable
Note: The U-LTE can only be adopted via remote access at: unifi.ui.com |
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. |
