Installation Requirements
• The GPS Antenna needs to have clear line of sight to the sky
for proper GPS operation.
• 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
Networks. For more details, visit
• Surge protection should be used for all outdoor installations.
We recommend that you use two Ethernet Surge Protectors,
model ETH-SP, one near the RocketPrism and the other
at the entry point to the building. The ETH-SP will absorb
power surges and safely discharge them into the ground.
