Setting up a wifi bridge with switch correctly

by sodbuster35 . Updated 2 weeks, 5 days ago

I have recently purchased a Unifi Building bridge, a mini flex switch, and a Cloud Gateway Ultra to get internet from my house to my farm shop. These devices were recommended by an IT friend. He is out of town and I am ready to install everything but no very little of the correct hookup procedures. I apologize I am unable to put pictures with my question. From the bridge on the shop, does the cat6 wire go to the mini flex? If so, which port does it go to? Then I assume the cable that came with the Ultra plugs into the miniflex as well? Again, if so, which port? I also have a cat6 wire coming from my overhead door that I don’t know which device it plugs into (flex or Ultra). This is needed because the manufacturer offers a door opening app. Does it also plug into the miniflex or into the Ultra? All of this is very foreign to me so any help is appreciated.
