Overview
- The Ubiquiti UniFi Outdoor Patch Cable 2M is purpose-built for outdoor network installations where standard cables would degrade or fail. Its comprehensive weather and electrical protection makes it ideal for Australian conditions, from coastal salt spray to intense UV exposure and temperature fluctuations.
The cable combines a shielded RJ45 connector with internal foil shielding and an ESD drain wire, all protected by a weatherproof insulating jacket. This multi-layer approach prevents signal degradation, electromagnetic interference, and electrostatic damage—critical for maintaining network reliability in exposed locations.
At 2 metres, this cable length accommodates most outdoor mounting scenarios, including distance between roof-mounted access points and network infrastructure, or between outdoor equipment and protected enclosures. It integrates seamlessly with Ubiquiti's UniFi ecosystem and meets Category 5e performance standards for consistent data transmission.

FAQs
Is this cable suitable for permanent outdoor installation?
Yes. The UniFi Outdoor Patch Cable is specifically designed for permanent outdoor use. Its weatherproof jacket and shielding protect against rain, UV exposure, temperature changes, and electromagnetic interference typical of outdoor Australian environments.
What does the ESD drain wire do?
The ESD (electrostatic discharge) drain wire reduces the risk of damage to network equipment from static electricity buildup, which is common in outdoor installations. This protects both the cable and connected devices.
Can I use this cable indoors?
While the cable will function indoors, it is optimised for outdoor use. For indoor installations, standard UniFi patch cables are more cost-effective and space-efficient.
What is the difference between this cable and a standard patch cable?
The outdoor cable features reinforced shielding, ESD protection, and a weatherproof jacket designed to withstand harsh conditions. Standard patch cables lack these environmental and electrical protections.
Does this cable come in other lengths?
Yes. Ubiquiti offers the UniFi Outdoor Patch Cable in 1, 2, 3, 5, and 8-metre lengths to suit different installation distances.
Is the cable compatible with non-Ubiquiti equipment?
Yes. The cable uses a standard RJ45 connector and Category 5e rating, making it compatible with any equipment that accepts RJ45 Ethernet connections.
What warranty is included?
The cable is covered by a 12-month manufacturer warranty, providing protection against manufacturing defects.
