For Missions Where Other Cables Give Up: The UISP Outdoor Cable
When you install a Network connection outdoors, you play by different rules. Standard LAN Cabling is made for the cozy office environment, but not for the relentless outdoor conditions. The Ubiquiti UISP Cable PRO was developed precisely for this scenario. Its polyethylene outer jacket is not only water-repellent but also UV-resistant, certified according to ASTM G 151/154. This means that aggressive solar radiation cannot harm the Cable for years, while other Cables become brittle and lose their protective function.
Shielding That Makes the Difference
Near power lines, motors, or other sources of interference, clean data transmission is not a given. That's why the UISP Cable PRO is designed as an F/UTP cable (Foiled/Unshielded Twisted Pair). A continuous aluminum foil encloses the four wire pairs, effectively shielding them against electromagnetic interference (EMI). Additionally, an integrated ESD grounding wire protects your connected, expensive Network devices like an Ethernet Switch or IP Cameras from electrostatic discharge. The result: a stable Gigabit connection without unexplained interruptions.
Power over Ethernet: Full Power Where You Need It
Modern outdoor devices like PTZ IP Cameras, powerful WiFi Access Points, or directional Antennas require not only data but also a reliable Power Supply. The UISP Cable PRO, thanks to its 24 AWG solid copper conductors, is the perfect choice for Power over Ethernet applications. It effortlessly supports all standards from PoE (802.3af) over PoE+ (802.3at) to high-power PoE++ (802.3bt) with up to 100 watts. This allows you to power even distant devices with just a single Cable, saving you the complex installation of separate power lines.
Quality Down to the Smallest Detail: Solid Copper Instead of Compromises
The core of any good Cable is its conductors. Ubiquiti consistently relies on pure solid copper conductors (Solid Bare Copper). Unlike cheaper cables with copper-clad aluminum (CCA), solid copper offers significantly lower resistance. This leads to less signal loss (attenuation) and lower heat generation, which is crucial for performance and safety, especially over long distances and when using PoE. This quality feature makes the UISP Cable PRO the foundation for professional and durable Cabling.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can the Ubiquiti UISP Cable PRO be buried directly in the ground?
No, the cable is not specified for direct burial. While it is extremely weather-resistant, for underground installations, it should always be routed in a suitable conduit to protect against mechanical stress and rodents. This ensures the longevity of your **Cabling** and **Network** infrastructure.
What maximum speed does this **Ethernet Cable** support?
The UISP Cable PRO is a CAT5e cable and reliably supports **Ethernet** speeds of up to 1 Gigabit per second (1 Gbps). It's an excellent choice for a robust **Network** connection.
Is the cable shielded and why is that important?
Yes, it is a shielded cable (F/UTP) with aluminum foil and an additional ground wire. This shielding is crucial for outdoor installations or parallel to power lines, as it protects the data signal from interference and increases **Network** stability. This is vital for reliable **Cabling** in challenging environments, especially when connecting **IP Cameras** or **UniFi Access Points**.
Can I power a PoE surveillance camera with this cable?
Yes, absolutely. The cable supports all common PoE standards, including PoE, PoE+ and PoE++ up to 100 watts. It is therefore ideally suited to power surveillance **IP Cameras**, **WiFi Access Points**, and other PoE-enabled devices with power and data. This makes it perfect for **PoE Injectors / Power Supplies** setups.
What does the 24 AWG solid copper conductor cross-section mean?
24 AWG is a standard for the wire diameter in **Ethernet Cables**. 'Solid copper' means that each conductor consists of a single, solid copper wire. This ensures better conductivity and lower signal loss, which is particularly important for long cable runs and **PoE Injectors / Power Supplies** applications, enhancing your overall **Network** performance.
Is the cable flexible enough for tight corners?
As an **Ethernet Cable** with solid copper conductors, it is stiffer than flexible patch cables. It is designed for fixed installation, where the minimum bending radius should be observed. For connecting from the wall outlet to the end device, a flexible patch cable is recommended to maintain optimal **Network** connectivity.
