Model: AF-5XHD-US - US Version

Airfiber 5XHD PTP 5 GHz Carrier Radio with LTU Technology

Ubiquiti Networks continues to disrupt the wireless broadband market with revolutionary technology at breakthrough pricing by introducing the airFiber® AF-5XHD. Designed for use in the 5 GHz frequency band, the AF-5XHD features the newest radio technology, offering greater channel bandwidths (up to 100 MHz) and more advanced RF components.

The AF-5XHD is also compatible with a number of existing Ubiquiti® antennas for the 5 GHz band, including airFiber X antennas and certain RocketDish™ antennas. Pair the AF-5XHD with a compatible Ubiquiti antenna for a complete 5 GHz Point-to-Point (PtP) solution.

The AF-5XHD also includes a special IP67 upgrade kit for enhanced protection from dust and water.

Engineered for Performance

Ubiquiti’s custom silicon and proprietary radio architecture are designed specifically for long-distance, outdoor wireless applications.

The core communications processing engine surpasses all of the limitations inherent to generic Wi-Fi chips to provide superior performance, long-range capability, DFS flexibility, higher constellations, and power output, along with better receive sensitivity.

The AF-5XHD features industry-leading 10.6 bps/Hz spectral efficiency, line-rate data packet processing for up to 1 Gbps of real data throughput, and innovative xtreme Range Technology (xRT™) for up to 100 km in range.

Features:

• Programmable Transmit Power The radio's transmit
• power level can be programmed up to +29 dBm.

• Bluetooth interface for wireless configuration.
• AlignLock™ Antenna Aiming Guard This alerts the
• user when the radio or antenna aiming is changed
• due to tampering, impact, or storm damage.
• User-Configurable Interference Mitigation Three
• user-selectable profiles support both high-interference
• and greenfield deployments for robust, optimal
• performance.
• Redundant Images for Fail-Safe Configuration
• Creation of backup firmware images ensures fail-safe
• configuration and enhances reliability.
• Persistent Spectrum Analysis with Dedicated RX
