Ubiquiti PowerBeam PBE-5AC-Gen2 High-Performance airMAX 5Ghz ac Bridge ac Gen2

Ubiquiti PowerBeam 5AC Gen2 | High-Performance 5GHz Wireless Bridge

Overview Ubiquiti PowerBeam Networks launches the latest generation of airMAX® CPE (Customer Premises Equipment), the PowerBeam® 5AC Gen 2, with dedicated Wi-Fi management. Improved Noise Immunity The PowerBeam 5AC Gen 2 directs RF energy in a tighter beamwidth. With the focus in one direction, the PowerBeam 5AC Gen 2 blocks or spatially filters out noise, so noise immunity is improved.

This feature is especially important in an area crowded with other RF signals of the same or similar frequency. Integrated Design Ubiquiti’s InnerFeed® technology integrates the radio into the feedhorn of an antenna, so there is no need for a cable.

This improves performance because it eliminates cable losses. Featuring high performance and innovative design, the PowerBeam 5AC Gen 2 is versatile and cost‑effective to deploy
