Installation Requirements
- Phillips screwdriver (for shelf or wall mounting)
- (Optional) 42 to 56VDC power source, such as the EdgePower™ EP-54V-150W, for stand-alone DC power or redundant power backup.
- 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: Although the cabling can be located outdoors, the EdgeSwitch itself should be housed inside a protective enclosure. |

Connecting AC Power
Connecting DC Power (Optional)
For stand-alone DC power or redundant power backup, connect a 42 to 56VDC power source to the EdgeSwitch:
|
Note: Only AC power or DC power can be used at any one time. With both power sources connected, the input with the highest voltage will be used (output voltage of the internal AC/DC PSU is 54VDC); the other power source defaults to backup. |

Accessing the Configuration Interface
The EdgeSwitch is set to DHCP by default, so it will try to automatically obtain an IP address. If that fails, then it will use the default fallback IP address, 192.168.1.2. Proceed to the appropriate section, DHCP or “Fallback IP Address”:
DHCP
Use one of the following methods:
- Set up the DHCP server to provide a specific IP address to the EdgeSwitch based on its MAC address (on the label).
- Let the EdgeSwitch obtain an IP address and then check the DHCP server to see which IP address was assigned.
To log in, follow these steps:
- Launch your web browser. Type the appropriate IP address in the address field. Press enter (PC) or return (Mac).
- Enter ubnt in the Username and Password fields. Click Sign In.
- The EdgeSwitch Configuration Interface will appear. Customize additional settings as needed.
For more information, refer to the EdgeSwitch documentation, which is available at ui.com/download/edgemax
Fallback IP Address
- Ensure that your computer (or other host system) is connected to the EdgeSwitch.
- Configure the Ethernet adapter on your host system with a static IP address on the 192.168.1.x subnet.
- Launch your web browser. Type the appropriate IP address in the address field (192.168.1.2 is the default fallback IP address). Press enter (PC) or return (Mac).
- Enter ubnt in the Username and Password fields. Click Sign In.
- The EdgeSwitch Configuration Interface will appear. Go to Settings .
- Change the IP Address to a unique IP address. Click Apply.
|
Note: If you change the IP settings, then the session will be cut off, and you will need to reconnect to the EdgeSwitch using the new IP address. |
