Description

High-Performance airMAX® ac Bridge Incorporating a dish reflector design with proprietary airMAX® ac technology, the PowerBeam™ ac is ideal for CPE deployments requiring maximum performance.

 

The PowerBeam ac 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.

 

Featuring high performance and innovative mechanical design, the PowerBeam ac is versatile and cost-effective to deploy.

 

It launches with PtP functionality, and a client mode feature will be added with a future firmware upgrade.

 

The Ubiquiti PBE-5AC-500 also includes a 500mm radome to shield the radio from harsh environments. POE and Australian power cable included.

 

Features:


Highly Efficient Antenna Beam Performance
Custom Ubiquiti® airMAX® ac Processor
Up to 450+ Mbps Real TCP/IP Throughput
Innovative Snap and Lock Assembly
Proprietary InnerFeed™ Technology
