Ubiquiti NanoBeam 5AC Gen2 Wireless Bridge

Key Features

• Connect remote locations on one network

• Share Internet connection between buildings, remote sites, etc.

• Indistinguishable from Ethernet cable

• 200mW output power, 2x2 MIMO operation

• Gigabit Ethernet interface

• 8W (max) power consumption

• Discrete, compact 190mm form factor

• Two units required for wireless bridge

• Includes POE injector and Australian 240V AC adaptor.

New Model

• The new NanoBeam 5AC Gen2 incorporates 802.11ac technology - providing 256QAM modulation resulting in data rates as high as 450Mbps @ >65dBm, gigabit Ethernet, and AirMax packet prioritisation technology for superior latency reduction in your multi-point environment

• Previous PowerBeam and NanoBeam models were based on 802.11n technology which provided up to 64QAM (270Mbps, but often limited by their 10/100Eth interface to 100Mbps).

Recommended Usage

• NanoBeam AC 19 Gen2 are most commonly deployed to provide a very high speed wireless bridge between adjacent buildings

• The units moderate 19dBi gain makes it ideal for short range high capacity network sharing, with a typical suggested range of 100-600m

• Due to the small dish size, these units are best for locations isolated from competing 5GHz networks.

Improved Noise Immunity

• The NanoBeam AC Gen2 directs RF energy in a tighter beamwidth

• With the focus in one direction, the PowerBeam AC blocks or spatially filters out noise, so noise immunity is improved

• This feature is especially important in an area crowded with other RF signals of the same or similar frequency.

• This is a transparent data-link layer bridge, not a routed bridge - this means that you are creating a virtual ethernet cable between the two facilities, making network setup incredibly simple - no routing configuration, all protocols (DHCP, DNS, etc) just work

• Management of the Ubiquiti device couldn't be easier with SSH and SNMP protocol support, as well as a very intuitive HTTP interface.

Ready to Install

• This unit has all networking hardware and surge protection integrated and is completely weatherproof for permanent installation in even the toughest environments

• Signal strength indicators allow for quick and easy alignment

• For best performance the unit should be roof mounted, high and clear of obstructions, via its integrated pole mounting bracket

• The units are powered via Power over Ethernet (PoE) - simply plug one end of the Ethernet cable into the NanoBeam, and the other into the PoE Injector (which is plugged into AC power)

• This allows one cable to both power the unit and also carry network traffic

• We recommend using Cat6 Outdoor UV Shielded Cable with this unit.
