The Quick-Mount is an adjustable mounting accessory designed to provide flexible installation options for a variety of Ubiquiti CPE (Customer Premises Equipment) devices. It facilitates the secure attachment of these devices to surfaces, allowing for precise aiming and positioning. The Quick-Mount assembly is composed of several key components, including a Mount Arm, Universal Ball Mount, Bracket Mount, Rotation Collar, Stacking Washer, and Ball Mount Washer, each playing a specific role in the mounting process.
Function Description:
The primary function of the Quick-Mount is to serve as a versatile and adjustable mounting solution for Ubiquiti wireless devices. It allows for the secure attachment of devices to a surface, providing articulation and rotation capabilities to optimize signal alignment and coverage. The design incorporates different mounting configurations to accommodate various Ubiquiti models, ensuring compatibility and ease of installation. The Mount Arm provides the main structural support and adjustability, while the Universal Ball Mount and Bracket Mount offer different interfaces for attaching specific device types. The Rotation Collar enables rotational adjustment, and the Stacking Washer and Ball Mount Washer are used to stabilize and secure the assembly, particularly for certain device models.

- Weight: 375 g (0.83 lb)
- Device Support:
- Ball Mount Assembly: Compatible with loco5AC, NS-5AC, or LTU-Lite.
- Universal Ball Mount: Compatible with NBE-2AC-13, NBE-M5-16, UBB, or GBE.
- Universal Ball Mount with Ball Mount Washer: Compatible with NBE-5AC-Gen2, NBE-M5-19.
Usage Features:
The Quick-Mount offers several usage features that enhance its versatility and ease of installation:
- Adjustable Mount Arm: The Mount Arm is the core component that provides adjustability, allowing users to position the connected Ubiquiti CPE device at desired angles. This is crucial for optimizing wireless signal direction and performance.
- Rotation Collar: The Rotation Collar is an integral part of the Quick-Mount assembly that locks the Mount Arm into place and allows for rotational adjustments. This feature provides flexibility in orienting the device without needing to reposition the entire mount.
- Multiple Mounting Configurations: The Quick-Mount supports different Ubiquiti device models through specific component combinations:
- For NBE-2AC-13, NBE-M5-16, UBB, or GBE, the Universal Ball Mount is used.
- For NBE-5AC-Gen2 or NBE-M5-19, the Universal Ball Mount is used in conjunction with the Ball Mount Washer.
- For loco5AC, NS-5AC, or LTU-Lite, the Bracket Mount is used, forming part of the Ball Mount Assembly.
- Simple Installation Process: The installation involves a straightforward sequence:
- Inserting the Mount Arm into the Rotation Collar until it locks.
- Optionally, marking and drilling a 3 mm (1/8") pilot hole for the mounting screw.
- Attaching the Quick-Mount assembly to the desired surface using the integrated screw.
- Tightening the mount to secure it in place.
- Attaching the Ubiquiti device to the appropriate mount (Universal Ball Mount or Bracket Mount), sometimes requiring the device's Lock Ring and/or the Ball Mount Washer.
- Adjusting the device's position for optimal alignment, leveraging the rotational and angular flexibility of the mount.
- Compatibility with Device Lock Ring: For certain models like NBE-5AC-Gen2, NBE-M5-19, loco5AC, NS-5AC, and LTU-Lite, the device's existing Lock Ring is utilized as part of the Quick-Mount assembly, ensuring a secure and integrated fit.
Maintenance Features:
As a passive mounting accessory, the Quick-Mount requires minimal maintenance. Key considerations include:
- Durable Construction: The components are designed for outdoor use and are expected to withstand various environmental conditions, reducing the need for frequent replacement.
- Secure Fastening: The design emphasizes secure fastening mechanisms, such as the locking action of the Mount Arm into the Rotation Collar and the tightening of the mounting screw, which helps maintain stability over time.
- Inspection: Periodic inspection of the mount for any signs of wear, loosening, or damage due to environmental factors (e.g., strong winds, extreme temperatures) is recommended to ensure continued stability and performance of the mounted device.
- Cleaning: Occasional cleaning may be necessary to remove dirt or debris that could accumulate on the mount, especially in outdoor environments, to prevent potential degradation of materials or obstruction of moving parts, though this is generally not critical for its function.
In summary, the Quick-Mount is a robust and adaptable mounting solution that simplifies the deployment of various Ubiquiti CPE devices by providing secure attachment, precise adjustability, and broad compatibility, all within a compact and durable design.
