Installation Requirements
~ Ratchet wrench with 13 and 17 mm sockets
~ 13 mm combination wrench
- 3 mm hex wrench (Sp/ice Kit for 55770072 or 5377003 only)
~ Shielded Category 5 (or above) cabling with drain wire should
be used for all wired Ethernet connections and should be
properly grounded to the earth/chassis ground,
We recommend that you protect your networks from
harmful outdoor environments and destructive ESD events
with industrialrgrade, shielded Ethernet cable from Ubiquiti
Networks. For more details, visit wwwtuhntJom/toughnble
Installation Guldelines
Installation Guidelines
Orient the panel towards the south (or towards the north ifin the
southern hemisphere). Ifyou prefer to set the angiejust once, we
recommend to use the adjustment angle for your latitude in winter.
Ie of Adjustment titude (Winter) Latitude iSummer)
10“ <13“ <30“
20“ 13—20“ 30—40“ l
30“ 20—27“ 40—50“ l
40“ 27—34“ 50—50“ l
50“ 34—41“ 50—70“ l
60“ 41—47“ 7080“ l
70“ >47“ >80“ l
Note: These are approximate values to optimize energy
generation in the given season. Local weather patterns,
shading, or other environmental factors may require
different adjustments and affect performance.
To use the so“ or 70“ angle ofadjustment, first configure the main
solar panel as follows:
1, Remove the four screws securing the electronics compartment.
2, Lower the compartment to the bottom set of mounting holes,
and secure it using the four screws.

Installation Overview
Installatlon includes the following:
- Hardware Installation Mount the solar panel(s).
- Connecting the SolarBeam Connect the cables.
- Accessing the Configuration Interface Configure settings,
Hardware Installation
Ifyou have 587002 or 5870073, install the main solar panel first
before installing the other panels. You have two options, pole or
wall mounting. Proceed to the instructions foryour option.
Pole Mounting
1. Attach two Pole clamps to the top and bottom ofthe Mounting
Bracket, For each clamp:
a. Hold the Mounting Bracket with its clamps facing you and
the Angle Indicator: towards the bottom.
b. Insert the two Carriage Bolts through the holes of the
Mounting Bracket,
c, Slide the hole of the Pole Clamp over one bolt ofthe
Mounting Bracket.
d. Place one Flat Washer, Split Lock Washer, and Hex Nut on
each bolt.

2, Mount the Mounting Bracket on the pole and secure it.
a, Place the Mounting Bracketagainst the pole,
b, Slide the slot of each Pole Clamp over the adjacent
Carriage Bolt.
ct Tighten the HexNuts ofthe bolts to 25 N -m to secure the
Mounting Bracket to the pole.
Note: The mounting assembly can accommodate a
W 381-1015 mm (1.5" - 4,0") pole.

Connecting the SolarBeam
Connecting the SolarBeam
Before you begin, unscrew the thumbscrews to remove the
port cover.
When you have finished your connections, hand—tighten the
grommets and replace the port cover.
Connecting to an External Battery (Optional)
You can use flexible conduit or an optional cable gland (not
included) for your connection to an external battery.
1. Punch out the V1“ NPT (M20) cutout on the bottom ofthe
electronics compartment to allow the (able feed.

O I‘l'.
WARNING: We strongly recommend that you add
an appropriate DC breaker Unterrupter) between the
Ext Battvbart terminm block and external battery to
increase safety during instauat‘ron or maintenance.
Suggested breaker rating: 3ovocnoA.
3. Wire the other end to an external battery.
4. Feed the induded NTC Thermistor through the hole and wire it
to the Tbatrterminal block. (You can use a cape to extend the
NTC The/mister as needed.)

Connecting to the DC Output (Optional)
Nate: Ensure that your network device supports the
supplied voltage
1, Remove the FUSE to disable the DC output,
2, Feed the included DC Cable through the grommet and wire it
to the Z4l/DC Output terminal block.
3. Wire the othev end of the cable to a network device that
supports the supplied voltage.
4, Replace the Fuse to enable the DC output.

Connecting Ethernet
Nate: Ifyou are using TOUGHCaMe, we recommend
attaching the TOUGHCabIe ConnectorKS) after you Insert the
cable(s) into the grommet.
1. Rotate the grommet cover counterdockwise to remove it.
2. Remove the grommet from the SolarBeam.

Note: If you are connecting two Ethernet cables, then
use the doublercable grommet (pie—installed). If you
connecting only a single Ethernet cable, then use the
included Single—Cable Grommet instead.

WARNING: The PVCabIeS carry e|e(trlcity any time the
panel is exposed to light. You must wire a single cable at
a time because they could short if you connect them at
the same time.
3. Wire the negative (—) PVCable to the negative (—) input.
