Installation Requirements
- Phillips screwdriver
- 13 mm wrench
- 16 mm wrench
- Shielded Category 5 (or above) cabling should be used for all 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. For more details, visit ui.com/toughcable
Hardware Overview
Bottom View
Ethernet |
---|
This Gigabit Ethernet port is used to connect the power and should be connected to the LAN and DHCP server. |
Reset Button |
To reset to factory defaults, press and hold the Reset button for more than 10 seconds while the device is powered on. Alternatively, the device may be reset remotely via a Reset button located on the bottom of the Gigabit PoE Adapter. |
Release Button |
After you assemble the PowerBeam, check the Release button; it should be fully engaged in the Release Button Slot of the Rear Housing. This ensures that the Antenna Feed is locked into place. If you need to remove the Antenna Feed, you must depress the Release button first. |
LEDs
Signal |
---|
In airOS®, you can modify the threshold value for the wireless signal strength LEDs on the Wireless tab under Signal LED Thresholds. Each LED will light when the wireless signal strength is equal to or greater than the LED’s threshold value. The default threshold values for these LEDs are shown below: |
Ethernet |
The Ethernet LED will light steady blue when an active Ethernet connection is made and flash when there is activity. |
Power |
The Power LED will light blue when the device is connected to a power source. |
Application Examples
The PowerBeam mounted outdoors with the Reflector installed provides directional outdoor coverage (gain is reflector-dependent).
The PowerBeam mounted outdoors without the Reflector installed provides outdoor-to-indoor coverage using the 3 dBi Antenna Feed only.
Installation
Connecting Power
WARNING: The switch port must comply with the power specifications listed in this Quick Start Guide. |

Accessing airOS
You can also manage your device using the Ubiquiti Internet Service Provider Application. Setup using the UISP™ app requires the U-Installer, sold separately.
Installer Compliance Responsibility
Devices must be professionally installed and it is the professional installer’s responsibility to make sure the device is operated within local country regulatory requirements.
Antenna
Select your antenna from the list. If Calculate EIRP Limit is enabled, transmit output power is automatically adjusted to comply with the regulations of the applicable country. For a Custom antenna, Antenna Gain is entered manually. Note the requirements and antenna types listed below.
Cable Loss (When applicable)
Enter the cable loss in dB. Output power is adjusted to compensate for loss between the radio and the antenna.
Certified Antenna Types
This radio transmitter FCC ID: SWX-PBE5AC / IC: 6545A-PBE5AC has been approved by FCC / ISED Canada to operate with the antenna types listed below with the maximum permissible gain for each antenna type indicated. Antenna types not included in this list or having a gain greater than the maximum gain indicated for that type, are strictly prohibited for use with this device.
