Ubiquiti Networks LOCOM2(US) Wireless Access Points
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the maximum outdoor range of the Ubiquiti LOCOM2?
The Ubiquiti Networks LOCOM2 delivers 150+ Mbps real outdoor throughput with a range of up to 15km or more, depending on antenna configuration and environmental conditions. This extended range capability makes it ideal for point-to-multipoint wireless deployments across larger areas.
Does the LOCOM2 support MIMO technology?
Yes, the LOCOM2 features 2x2 MIMO technology, which enables significantly faster and more reliable wireless links compared to earlier single-antenna designs. This dual-antenna approach improves both speed and range performance in outdoor deployments.
What wireless standards does the LOCOM2 support?
The LOCOM2 operates on IEEE 802.11b/g standards and is designed as a point-to-multipoint wireless bridge with a single 10/100 Ethernet port (RJ-45) for network connectivity. It supports passive Power over Ethernet (PoE) for simplified installation.
Can the LOCOM2 be mounted outdoors in harsh weather?
Yes, the LOCOM2 is built with an outdoor UV-stabilized plastic enclosure designed to withstand environmental stress. It operates reliably across a wide temperature range and humidity levels, making it suitable for permanent outdoor installation.
How is the LOCOM2 powered and installed?
The LOCOM2 uses passive Power over Ethernet (PoE) on pairs 4, 5+ and 7, 8 return for both power and network connectivity through a single Ethernet cable. It includes a pole-mount kit for easy outdoor installation on existing infrastructure.
What are the key differences between the LOCOM2 and NanoStation M models?
Both the LOCOM2 and NanoStation M (NSM2) share the same core 2x2 MIMO technology and 150+ Mbps throughput capability, but feature different form factors—the LOCOM2 has a more compact design optimized for point-to-multipoint links. We offer both models available from us for different deployment scenarios.
