N-SW Quick Start Guide
Package Contents
Installation Requirements
Mounting accessories and drain wire are not included.
Pole-Mounting
- Drill with a 4.5 mm Drill Bit
- 7 mm Socket Wrench or Screwdriver
Wall-Mounting
- (2) Screws (≤ 5 mm Screw Head)
- (1) Drain Wire, Optional (≤ 12 AWG, ≤ 1 m)
Cables
- Shielded Category 5 (or above) cabling with drain wire 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
- Surge protection should be used for all outdoor installations. We recommend that you use two Ethernet Surge Protectors, model ETH-SP-G2, one near the N-SW and the other at the entry point to the building. The ETH-SP-G2 will absorb power surges and safely discharge them into the ground.
Hardware Overview
| 1. Power LED | |
| The Power LED will light blue when the device is connected to a power source. | |
| 2. PoE LED | |
| Green | Active 24V PoE |
| 3. Link LED | |
| Green | Link EstablishedFlashing Indicates Activity |
| 4. PoE In Port | |
| RJ45 port supports 10/100/1000 Ethernet connections and supports 24V, 2-pair passive PoE to power the switch. For maximum power consumption of 30W, we recommend supplying power with the POE-24-30W-G-WH PoE adapter (not included). | |
| 5. Ground Bonding Point | |
The NanoSwitch must be grounded in one of the following ways:
|
|
| 6. PoE Out (Ports 1 – 3) | |
| RJ45 ports support 10/100/1000 Ethernet connections and provide passive 24V, 2-pair PoE passthrough for up to 30W PoE output.WARNING: PoE is always active. Before connecting a device to a PoE Out port |
|
| WARNING: Do NOT provide more than a total of 24W PoE output (24V, 1A) per port or 30W total output; otherwise this will damage the NanoSwitch. |
Connect a Drain Wire (Optional)
If a drain wire is used to ground the NanoSwitch, attach it to the Ground Bonding Point with the Self-Tapping Screw and Nut.
At the installation site, secure the other end of the drain wire to a grounded mast, pole, tower, or grounding bar.Hardware InstallationFollow the appropriate steps for your installation:
