Revolutionary Performance for Wireless ISPs
Ubiquiti introduces the airFiber AF-5XHD, a groundbreaking 5 GHz carrier backhaul radio engineered to shatter the limitations of standard 802.11 Wi-Fi technology. Designed from the ground up for the Wireless ISP (WISP) industry, the AF-5XHD incorporates Ubiquiti's proprietary LTU silicon and radio architecture to deliver exceptional performance. This custom technology provides low latency, long-range capability, and superior noise immunity, ensuring your network operates at peak efficiency. With a processing engine that handles over 2 million packets per second, the AF-5XHD is built for the most demanding network environments.
Unprecedented Spectral Efficiency and Throughput
The airFiber 5XHD is built to perform, featuring industry-leading 21.2 bps/Hz spectral efficiency. It achieves a true data throughput of up to 1.34 Gbps and supports advanced modulation rates up to 4096QAM. This allows for more data to be transmitted using less spectrum, which is critical in today's crowded RF environments. The device supports channel bandwidths up to 100 MHz and utilizes innovative xtreme Range Technology (xRT™) for robust, long-distance links.
Engineered for Flexibility and Reliability
The AF-5XHD offers unparalleled deployment flexibility. It features configurable GPS synchronization for enhanced co-location performance and can operate with split TX and RX frequencies and channel bandwidths to expertly navigate around interference. Its rugged, IP67-rated weatherproof design ensures continuous operation in the harshest conditions. For simplified management, the radio includes a built-in Bluetooth interface for wireless configuration from your mobile device. Dual Gigabit Ethernet ports with PoE provide redundant power options for maximum uptime.
Advanced Features for Optimal Performance
- GPS Synchronization: Precise GPS frame timing allows for dense co-location of radios without self-interference.
- Programmable Duty Cycle: Configure asymmetric TX and RX ratios (25%, 33%, 50%, 67%, 75%) to match your traffic needs.
- AlignLock™ Antenna Aiming Guard: Receive alerts if the antenna aiming is altered, ensuring link stability.
- Persistent Spectrum Analysis: A dedicated RX radio performs real-time spectral analysis without interrupting the main link.
- Wide Compatibility: Pair the AF-5XHD with a compatible Ubiquiti® airFiber X antenna or RocketDish™ antenna for a complete Point-to-Point (PtP) solution.
