Frequently Asked Questions
What wireless standard and data rate does the Ubiquiti PBE-2AC-400 support?
The PBE-2AC-400 operates on IEEE 802.11ac and delivers 330 Mbit/s wireless throughput. This AC-class bridge is designed for high-speed point-to-point wireless connectivity in outdoor deployments.
What frequency band does this PowerBeam operate on?
The PBE-2AC-400 operates on the 2.4 GHz frequency band, making it suitable for long-range wireless bridge applications where 5 GHz models may not be appropriate. It features an 18 dBi antenna gain for extended coverage.
How is the PBE-2AC-400 powered, and what are the power requirements?
The unit is powered via passive PoE (Power over Ethernet) using a 24V, 0.5A Gigabit PoE adapter, with a supported voltage range of 20-26VDC. Maximum power consumption is 8.5W, making it energy-efficient for remote deployments.
What mounting options and mechanical features does the PBE-2AC-400 include?
The PBE-2AC-400 comes with a pole-mounting kit and features built-in mechanical tilt capability with ±20° of adjustment (20° uptilt and up to 20° downtilt). The antenna feed can be detached with a push button for easy field maintenance.
How durable is the PBE-2AC-400 in harsh outdoor environments?
The unit is built for corrosion resistance with GEOMET-coated fasteners and a galvanized steel dish with powder-coat finish. It survives wind speeds up to 200 km/h (125 mph), operates in temperatures from -40 to 70°C, and has passed salt fog, vibration, UV, and wind-driven rain testing per industry standards.
What networking interface and management capabilities does the PBE-2AC-400 provide?
The PBE-2AC-400 includes one 10/100 Ethernet port for network connectivity and can be centrally managed through Ubiquiti's controller software, which supports network mapping, device status monitoring, mass firmware upgrades, and task scheduling.
