Ubiquiti airMAX LiteBeam 5AC

Description

The Ubiquiti airMAX LiteBeam 5AC is a powerful, outdoor wireless bridge designed for high-performance point-to-point and point-to-multipoint applications. Part of Ubiquiti’s airMAX product line, the LiteBeam 5AC combines innovative engineering with advanced features, making it an ideal solution for delivering reliable wireless connectivity over long distances.

One of the standout features of the LiteBeam 5AC is its impressive range, capable of achieving distances of up to 30 kilometers (18.6 miles) in optimal conditions. This makes it suitable for connecting remote locations or bridging gaps between buildings in urban and rural environments alike. Operating in the 5 GHz frequency band, the LiteBeam 5AC provides superior performance while minimizing interference from other devices, ensuring a stable and robust connection.

The device is equipped with a high-gain, 23 dBi antenna, which enhances both signal strength and clarity. This directional antenna helps focus the signal in a specific direction, maximizing range and throughput while reducing noise and interference from surrounding areas. With a maximum throughput of up to 450 Mbps, the LiteBeam 5AC is capable of handling high-bandwidth applications, making it a great choice for internet service providers and enterprises needing reliable connectivity for video streaming, VoIP, and data transfers.

Durability is a key consideration in the design of the LiteBeam 5AC. With an IP65 rating, it is resistant to dust and water, ensuring reliable performance even in harsh weather conditions. This rugged construction allows the device to function optimally across a range of environmental challenges, from rain and snow to extreme temperatures.

The LiteBeam 5AC is designed for easy installation and management. The lightweight design and included mounting hardware make it simple to install on various surfaces, including poles and walls. Additionally, it supports Power over Ethernet (PoE), allowing for a single cable to deliver both power and data, further simplifying setup.

Management is facilitated through Ubiquiti’s intuitive airOS, which provides a user-friendly interface for configuring settings, monitoring performance, and troubleshooting issues. Features such as spectral analysis and real-time bandwidth monitoring enable network administrators to optimize performance and address potential problems proactively.
