Overview
- The Ubiquiti UniFi Outdoor Patch Cable is purpose-built for outdoor network deployments where standard Ethernet cables fall short. Its weatherproof jacket, shielded RJ45 connector, and internal foil shielding protect against moisture, UV exposure, and electromagnetic interference—ensuring reliable data transmission in harsh conditions.
Designed specifically for UniFi ecosystems, this cable integrates seamlessly with Ubiquiti outdoor access points, switches, and network infrastructure. The integrated ESD drain wire provides additional protection against electrostatic discharge, extending cable lifespan and reducing network downtime.
At 2 metres, it offers practical reach for connecting outdoor equipment without excessive slack. Available in multiple lengths (1M, 3M, 5M, and 8M options also offered by Ubiquiti), this cable is ideal for businesses deploying resilient outdoor networks across campuses, warehouses, and remote facilities.

FAQs
Is this cable suitable for indoor use?
Yes. While specifically designed for outdoor conditions, the UniFi Outdoor Patch Cable can be used indoors. However, for standard indoor installations, Ubiquiti's regular patch cables are typically more cost-effective.
What does ESD protection mean and why is it important?
ESD (electrostatic discharge) protection safeguards network equipment from damage caused by static electricity. This is particularly important in outdoor environments where lightning strikes and weather-related electrical activity pose risks to sensitive equipment.
Can I use this cable with non-Ubiquiti equipment?
Yes. This is a standard RJ45 Category 5e patch cable and works with any Ethernet-compatible device, including switches, routers, and access points from other manufacturers.
What is the maximum data speed supported?
Category 5e cables support data rates up to 1 Gigabit per second (1 Gbps), suitable for most business network applications.
Is the shielding necessary for outdoor use?
Yes. Outdoor environments expose cables to electromagnetic interference from power lines, radio signals, and weather. Shielding and the ESD drain wire protect signal quality and equipment longevity.
What is the warranty coverage?
This cable includes a 12-month manufacturer's warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship.
