Package Contents
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. 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.
