Product Description
The Ubiquiti UniFi Active Ethernet Adapter (UACC - AE) is a top - notch solution for extending your Ethernet network via fiber optic cables. It overcomes the drawbacks of traditional copper cabling, allowing long - distance connections between Ubiquiti devices with almost no signal loss. Ideal for connecting buildings, outdoor access points, or remote network devices where copper cabling isn't practical. This adapter has a compact and weatherproof design, suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. It supports Power over Ethernet (PoE), enabling you to send data and power through a single fiber optic cable, simplifying installation and removing the need for separate power supplies at remote sites. Key features include long - distance fiber - based Ethernet extension, minimal signal loss, a durable design, PoE support, plug - and - play setup, and seamless integration with the UniFi Network application. Technical specs: It measures 76.5 x 76.5 x 26.8 mm, weighs 70 g, and has a UV - stabilized polycarbonate enclosure. It has a 1 Gbps SFP port and a GbE RJ45 port, supports multiple power methods, and has a max power consumption of 1.5W. It operates in a wide temperature and humidity range and has CE, FCC, IC certifications. The package includes the Ubiquiti UniFi Active Ethernet Adapter (UACC - AE).
Using the Ubiquiti UniFi Active Ethernet Adapter (UACC - AE) is easy. First, connect the fiber optic cable to the 1 Gbps SFP port and the Ethernet cable to the GbE RJ45 port. If you're using PoE, just plug it into a UniFi PoE switch. The adapter will power on automatically, and you'll see a steady white LED to indicate it's on. When there's data activity, the LED will blink blue. For outdoor use, its weatherproof design means you don't have to worry too much about the elements. But try to mount it in a place where it won't be directly exposed to heavy rain or strong sunlight for long periods. Maintenance is simple. Keep it clean by gently wiping it with a dry cloth. Avoid using any harsh chemicals. If you notice any issues with signal strength, check the cable connections first. Also, make sure the operating temperature stays between - 40 to 60°C and the humidity is within 10 to 90% non - condensing. This way, your adapter will keep working well for a long time.
