Installation Requirements
- 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
RP-SMA Antenna Connectors |
---|
Used to attach RF cables (not included). |
Power LED |
The Power LED will light green when the device is connected to a power source. |
Ethernet LED |
The Ethernet LED will light steady green when an active Ethernet connection is made and flash when there is activity. |
Signal LEDs |
In airOS®, you can modify the wireless signal strength threshold values for each LED on the Advanced tab under Signal LED Thresholds. The default values are shown below: |
LAN |
The 10/100 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 already powered on. |

Accessing airOS
Verify connectivity in the airOS Configuration Interface.
- Make sure that your host system is connected via Ethernet to the device.
- Configure the Ethernet adapter on your host system with a static IP address on the 192.168.1.x subnet.
- Launch your web browser and type https://192.168.1.20 in the address field. Press enter (PC) or return (Mac).
- Enter ubnt in the Username and Password fields. Select your Country and Language. You must agree to the Terms of Use to use the product. Click Login.
The airOS Configuration Interface will appear, allowing you to customize your settings as needed. For details, refer to the User Guide available at ui.com/download/airmax
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. 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.
