TERMS OF USE: Ubiquiti radio devices must be professionally installed. Shielded Ethernet
cable and earth grounding must be used as conditions of product warranty. TOUGHCable™is
designed for outdoor installations. It is the customer’s responsibility to follow local country
regulations, including operation within legal frequency channels, output power, and Dynamic
Frequency Selection (DFS) requirements.
Installation Requirements
The NanoBeam can be mounted on a pole or to a wall. A Metal
Strap (included) is used for pole-mounting. For wall-mounting,
a suitable fastener such as a screw or bolt (not included) is
required.
• Pole-mounting: 7 mm socket wrench or screwdriver
• Wall-mounting: wall fastener (not included)
• 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 the
most brutal environments and devastating ESD attacks with
industrial-grade shielded Ethernet cable, TOUGHCable from
Ubiquiti Networks.

strength is equal to or above -80 dBm.
LED will light blue when the wireless signal
strength is equal to or above -73 dBm.
LED will light blue when the wireless signal
strength is equal to or above -65 dBm.
Hardware Installation
The NanoBeam can be mounted on a pole or to a wall. Perform
the steps for the appropriate installation:
Pole-Mount
1. Insert the Ball Joint Mount into the Lock Ring with the
threads of the Lock Ring facing the ball joint.
2. Open the Metal Strap and feed it through the base of the
Ball Joint Mount.
3. Wrap the Metal Strap around the pole. Use a 7 mm socket
wrench to turn the screw clockwise and securely fasten the
clamp to the pole.
4. Attach the NanoBeam to the Ball Joint Mount and turn the
Lock Ring to secure it. Keep the Lock Ring loose enough to
allow the NanoBeam to pivot for aiming.
Wall-Mount
The NanoBeam must be mounted directly to a wood stud
or other structurally stable surface to avoid damage to the
mounting hole when you adjust the aim.
Optional Accessory
To enhance stability, you can use the NanoBeam Wall Mount
Kit, model NBE-WMK (soldseparately).
Note: Center screw included. Two optional screws
(not included) provide additional stability.
Installation Instructions
1. Mark the desired location of the mounting point.
2. If needed, drill a pilot hole for the fastener (not included).
3. Insert the Ball Joint Mount into the Lock Ring with the
threads of the Lock Ring facing the ball joint.
4. If you are using the optional NanoBeam Wall Mount Kit,
then skip to step b.
a. To attach the Ball Joint Mount to the wall, insert a
fastener (not included) through the center of the ball
joint, and into the wall. Securely tighten the fastener.
Proceed to step 5.
b. To attach the Ball Joint Mount to the wall, insert the Wall
Mount Kit screw through the center of the ball joint,
through the Wall Mount Kit plate, and into the wall.
Securely tighten the screw.
5. Attach the NanoBeam to the Ball Joint Mount and turn the
Lock Ring to secure it. Keep the Lock Ring loose enough to
allow the NanoBeam to pivot for aiming.
Aiming
1. Ensure the opening of the Ethernet cable is pointed
towards the ground.
2. Aim the front of the NanoBeam towards the other end of
the wireless link.
3. Hand-tighten the Lock Ring to lock the aim.
Note: Do not use a tool to tighten the Lock Ring.
Tighten the Lock Ring by hand only.
Connecting to the PoE Adapter
1. Remove the port cover by pressing down the center of the
cover and sliding the cover out.
2. Connect an Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port.
