Installation Requirements

Wall-mounting (optional)
Drill with 6 mm drill bit
Phillips screwdriver
For indoor applications, use Category 5 (or above) UTP cabling approved for indoor use.
For outdoor applications, shielded Category 5 (or above) cabling should be used for all wired Ethernet connections and should be grounded through the AC ground of the power supply.
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: ui.com/toughcable

Note: Although the cabling can be located outdoors, the EdgeSwitch itself should be housed inside a protective enclosure.

Hardware Overview

1. System LED
Flashing White	Bootup in Progress
White	Ready for Use Not Connected to Ubiquiti Internet Service Provider (UISP™)
Blue	Ready for Use Connected to UISP
Steady Blue with Occasional Flashing	Ready for Use Unable to Connect to UISP
Quickly Flashing Blue	Used to Locate a Device in UISP
Alternating Blue/White	Firmware Upgrade in Progress
2. RJ45 Speed/Link/Activity LED (Ports 1 – 8)
Off	No Link
Amber	Link Established at 10/100 Mbps Flashing Indicates Activity
Green	Link Established at 1000 Mbps Flashing Indicates Activity
3. SFP Link/Activity LED (Ports 9 – 10)
Green	Link Established at 1 Gbps Flashing Indicates Activity
4. RJ45 (Ports 1 – 8)
RJ45 ports support 10/100/1000 Ethernet connections. PoE In (Port 1) Supports 24V Passive PoE input. PoE Out (Port 8) Supports 24V Passive PoE passthrough.
5. SFP (Ports 9 – 10)
Hot-swappable SFP ports support 1 Gbps connections. If you use a copper Ethernet module (example: UF-RJ45-1G), power off the EdgeSwitch before insertion; otherwise there may be a device reboot.
6. Reset Button
To reset to factory defaults: 1. Disconnect power from the EdgeSwitch. 2. Reconnect power while holding the Reset button. The port LEDs will light up in sequential order (this takes approximately ﬁve seconds). 3. When the port 1 LED ﬂashes again, release the Reset button.
7. Power
Connect the included Power Adapter to the Power port.
8. Grounding Point
Ground bonding point for an optional ground wire.

Hardware Installation

The optional EdgeRouter™ Rackmount Kit, model ER-RMKIT, is sold separately.
WARNING: The EdgeSwitch ES-10X must not be stacked. Do not place it on top of another switch. Do not place anything on top of the ES-10X.

Wall Mounting

Grounding the EdgeSwitch (Recommended)

Connecting Power

Note: Only one power source can be used at any one time. With both power sources connected, the input with the highest voltage will be used; the other power source defaults to backup.

Connecting Ethernet

WARNING: Before enabling PoE passthrough, ensure that the connected PoE device supports 24V Passive PoE.

Using SFP Ports

For information about compatible ﬁber SFP modules, visit: ubnt.link/SFP_DAC_Compatibility

Accessing the Conﬁguration Interface

The device is set to DHCP by default, so it will try to automatically obtain an IP address. If that fails, then it will use the default fallback IP address, 192.168.1.20.
Proceed to the appropriate section, DHCP or “Fallback IP Address”:
DHCP
Use one of the following methods:
Set up the DHCP server to provide a speciﬁc IP address to the device based on its MAC address (on the label).
Let the device obtain an IP address and then check the DHCP server to see which IP address was assigned.

Launch your web browser. Type the appropriate IP address in the address ﬁeld.
Press enter (PC) or return (Mac).
Enter ubnt in the Username and Password ﬁelds. Click Sign In.
The EdgeSwitch Conﬁguration Interface will appear. Customize additional settings as needed. For 24V Passive PoE conﬁguration, refer to “Conﬁguring PoE Settings”.
For more information, refer to the EdgeSwitch documentation, which is available at ui.com/download/edgemax

Fallback IP Address

Ensure that your computer (or other host system) is connected to the device.
Conﬁgure the Ethernet adapter on your host system with a static IP address on the 192.168.1.x subnet.
Launch your web browser. Type the appropriate IP address in the address ﬁeld (192.168.1.20 is the default fallback IP address). Press enter (PC) or return (Mac).
Enter ubnt in the Username and Password ﬁelds. Click Sign In.
The EdgeSwitch Conﬁguration Interface will appear. Click the System Settings tab.
Change the IP Address to a unique IP address. Click Apply.

Note: If you change the IP settings, then the session will be cut off, and you will need to reconnect to the device using the new IP address.

Customize additional settings as needed. For 24V Passive PoE conﬁguration, refer to “Conﬁguring PoE Settings”. For more information, refer to the EdgeSwitch
documentation, which is available at ui.com/download/edgemax

Conﬁguring PoE Settings
The PoE setting for port 8 is set to Off by default.
WARNING: Before activating PoE, ensure that the connected device supports passive PoE and the supplied voltage.
On the Dashboard tab, click the PoE setting of port 8. Then select 24V.

UISP Management

You can manage your device using UISP, which lets you conﬁgure, monitor, upgrade, and back up your devices using a single application. Get started at uisp.ui.com
