Package Contents

Installation Requirements

Wall-mounting (optional)

Drill with 6 mm drill bit

Phillips screwdriver

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 EdgeRouter itself

should be housed inside a protective enclosure.

RJ45 serial console port for Command Line Interface (CLI) management.

All RJ45 ports can be used for routing and support 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet

connections. Ports 0 - 7 can be configured for switching functions using the

EdgeOS Configuration Interface. Port 0 supports 24V Passive PoE In and port

9 supports optional Passive PoE Out (disabled by default).

SFP routing ports are hot-swappable and support Gigabit fiber SFP modules.

Wall Mounting

Grounding (Recommended)

The Power Adapter grounds the device; however, you can add optional ESD

grounding for enhanced ESD protection.

1. Attach the Ground Screw to secure a ground wire (not included) to the

Grounding Point.

2. Optional: To secure the Power Adapter cord, insert it into the Cable Clip and

secure the Cable Clip using the Ground Screw.

3. Secure the other end of the ground wire to a grounding block.

Connecting Power

Connect the Power Adapter to the Power port and a power outlet.

Accessing the EdgeOS Configuration Interface

The EdgeOS® configuration interface can be accessed via DHCP or static IP

address assignment. By default, eth1 is set up as a DHCP client, while eth0 is

assigned a static IP address of 192.168.1.1. To configure the EdgeRouter, proceed

to the appropriate section: DHCP or “Static IP Address”.

DHCP

1. Connect an Ethernet cable from eth1 on the EdgeRouter to a LAN segment that

has an existing DHCP server.

2. To check the IP address of the EdgeRouter, use one of the following methods:

Set up the DHCP server to provide a specific IP address to the EdgeRouter

based on its MAC address (on the label).

Let the EdgeRouter obtain an IP address and then check the DHCP server to

see which IP address was assigned.

3. Launch your web browser. Enter the appropriate IP address in the address field.

Press enter (PC) or return (Mac).

4. Enter ubnt in the Username and Password fields. Read the Ubiquiti License

Agreement, and check the box next to I agree to the terms of this License

Agreement to accept it. Click Login.

The EdgeOS Configuration Interface will appear, allowing you to customize your

settings as needed. For more information, refer to the EdgeOS User Guide, which

is available at ui.com/download/edgemax

Static IP Address

1. Connect an Ethernet cable from the Ethernet port on your computer to the port

labeled eth0 on the EdgeRouter.

2. Configure the Ethernet adapter on your host system with a static IP address on

the 192.168.1.x subnet.

3. Launch your web browser. Type https://192.168.1.1 in the address field. Press

enter (PC) or return (Mac).

4. Enter ubnt in the Username and Password fields. Read the Ubiquiti License

Agreement, and check the box next to I agree to the terms of this License

Agreement to accept it. Click Login.

The EdgeOS Configuration Interface will appear, allowing you to customize your

settings as needed. For more information, refer to the EdgeOS User Guide, which
