Frequently Asked Questions
What is the maximum throughput of the Ubiquiti PowerBeam 5AC Gen2?
The PowerBeam 5AC Gen2 delivers up to 450+ Mbps throughput, making it suitable for high-speed point-to-point wireless links. This performance is achieved through Ubiquiti's innovative InnerFeed® technology and efficient antenna beam design.
How does the PowerBeam 5AC Gen2 improve noise immunity in congested RF environments?
The PowerBeam 5AC Gen2 directs RF energy in a tighter beamwidth that focuses transmission in one direction, which blocks or spatially filters out noise from other RF signals. This uniform beamwidth design is especially valuable in areas crowded with same or similar frequency signals.
What wireless modes and configurations does this PowerBeam model support?
The PowerBeam 5AC Gen2 supports Access Point PtMP (point-to-multipoint) airMAX Mixed Mode, long-range Point-to-Point (PtP) link mode, and airMAX ac protocol. It offers selectable channel widths from 10/20/30/40/50/60/80 MHz for PtP and 10/20/30/40 MHz for PtMP configurations.
Does the PowerBeam 5AC Gen2 include a dedicated management radio?
Yes, the PowerBeam 5AC Gen2 features a dedicated Wi-Fi radio for management, which simplifies device administration and monitoring. This dedicated management path operates independently from the main data radio.
What is InnerFeed® technology and how does it benefit performance?
Ubiquiti's InnerFeed® technology integrates the radio directly into the antenna's feedhorn, eliminating the need for external cables. This integrated design improves overall performance by removing cable losses that would otherwise degrade signal quality.
What security features are included with the PowerBeam 5AC Gen2?
The PowerBeam 5AC Gen2 includes WPA2 security, which is the strongest wireless security standard available for this class of equipment. The device runs on airOS® 8, Ubiquiti's advanced operating system designed for airMAX ac products.
