5 GHz, 16 dBi airMAX® ac CPE Model: NBE-5AC-16
Introduction Thank you for purchasing the Ubiquiti Networks® NanoBeam® ac. This Quick Start Guide is designed to guide you through the installation, and show you how to access the airOS® Configuration Interface. This Quick Start Guide also includes the warranty terms and is for use with the NanoBeam ac, model NBE-5AC-16. Package Contents NanoBeam ac Ball Joint Mount Lock Ring 5 GHz, 16 dBi airMAX® ac CPE Model: NBE-5AC-16 Metal Strap Gigabit PoE Adapter with Mounting Bracket (24V, 0.
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. • 7 mm socket wrench or screwdriver (for pole‑mounting) • Wall fastener (for wall-mounting) • 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.
Reset Button To reset to factory defaults, press and hold the Reset button for more than 10 seconds while the NanoBeam is already powered on. Alternatively, the NanoBeam may be reset remotely via a Reset button located on the bottom of the PoE Adapter. Ethernet Port The Ethernet port is used to connect the power and should be connected to the LAN and DHCP server.
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 drive or screwdriver to turn the screw clockwise and securely fasten the strap 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 (sold separately). 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. 3.
4. If you are using the optional NanoBeam Wall Mount Kit, 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. Aim the front of the NanoBeam towards the other end of the wireless link, while using the bubble level to ensure level alignment. 2. 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 Gigabit 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. 3. Replace the port cover.
4. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable from the NanoBeam to the Ethernet port labeled POE on the Gigabit PoE Adapter. 5. Connect an Ethernet cable from your LAN or computer to the Ethernet port labeled LAN on the Gigabit PoE Adapter. 6. Connect the Power Cord to the power port on the Gigabit PoE Adapter. Connect the other end of the Power Cord to a power outlet.
Mounting the PoE Adapter (Optional) 1. Slide the PoE Mounting Bracket down to remove it from the Gigabit PoE Adapter. 2. Place the PoE Mounting Bracket at the desired location and mark the two holes. Pre‑drill the holes if necessary, and then secure the bracket using two fasteners (not included). 3. Align the slots of the Gigabit PoE Adapter with the tabs of the PoE Mounting Bracket, and then slide the adapter down.
Accessing airOS Verify connectivity in the airOS Configuration Interface. 1. Make sure that your host machine is connected via Ethernet to the NanoBeam. 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 and type https://192.168.1.20 in the address field. Press enter (PC) or return (Mac). 4. The login screen will appear. Enter ubnt in the Username and Password fields. Select your Country and Language.
