PoE Camera Connection
The Ubiquiti G4 Instant PoE-to-USB Cable is a purpose-built solution designed to connect Camera G4 Instant and Camera G6 Instant to a Power over Ethernet (PoE) source. With a total length of 4.5 meters, the cable provides installation flexibility while enabling a clean, fully wired camera setup. When used together with a compatible PoE to USB-C Adapter (sold separately), this cable allows Instant series cameras to operate as wired PoE devices, eliminating the need for local power outlets and improving reliability compared to Wi-Fi-only power solutions. The cable supports Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) connectivity, enabling stable data transmission alongside power delivery for consistent video performance.
This design is ideal for professional and residential deployments where a fixed installation, centralized power distribution, and uninterrupted connectivity are required. By leveraging PoE infrastructure, installers can simplify cable routing, reduce power adapters, and improve overall system stability. Optimized specifically for Instant cameras, the cable ensures secure physical connection, predictable performance, and compatibility within the UniFi Protect ecosystem, making it a reliable accessory for converting compact cameras into professionally wired surveillance endpoints.
Robust Construction
The Ubiquiti G4 Instant PoE-to-USB Cable is engineered for long-term durability and safe operation in a wide range of environments. The cable features a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) jacket, providing flexibility, abrasion resistance, and mechanical protection while maintaining a compact outer diameter of 3.5 mm. The white jacket color allows discreet integration into modern interiors. Internally, the cable uses stranded copper conductors with a wire configuration of (2) 24 AWG + (3) 30 AWG, optimized for combined power delivery and data transmission. Shielded twisted pair (STP) construction helps minimize electromagnetic interference and ensures signal integrity in electrically noisy environments.
The cable meets VW-1 flame rating (UL1581) requirements, enhancing safety in permanent installations. A minimum bend radius of 14 mm (0.55 in) allows for clean routing around corners without stressing the conductors. Designed to operate reliably in ambient temperatures from –20 to +60 °C, the cable is suitable for both indoor and protected outdoor deployments. With its installation-grade materials and compliance with safety standards, this cable delivers dependable performance for professional PoE camera installations.
