Ubiquiti Networks launches the latest generation of air MAX CPE (Customer Premises Equipment), the Power Beam 5AC Gen 2, with dedicated Wi-Fi management. Improved Noise Immunity The Power Beam 5AC Gen 2 directs RF energy in a tighter beamwidth. With the focus in one direction, the Power Beam 5AC Gen 2 blocks or spatially filters out noise, so noise immunity is enhanced. This feature is especially important in an area crowded with other RF signals of the same or similar frequency. Integrated Design Ubiquiti’s Inner Feed 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 & innovative design, the Power Beam 5AC Gen 2 is versatile & cost-effective to deploy.

This time slot method eliminates hidden node collisions & maximizes airtime efficiency, so air MAX technology provides performance improvements in latency, noise immunity, scalability, & throughput compared to other outdoor systems in its class. Intelligent Qo S Priority assigned to voice/video for seamless streaming. Scalability High capacity & scalability. Long Distance Capable of high-speed, carrier-class links. Superior Performance The next-generation air MAX ac technology boosts the advantages of our proprietary TDMA protocol. Ubiquiti’s air MAX engine with custom IC dramatically improves TDMA latency & network scalability. The custom silicon provides hardware acceleration capabilities to the air MAX scheduler, to support the high data rates & dense modulation used in air MAX ac technology. Throughput Breakthroughair MAX ac supports high data rates, which require dense modulation: 256QAM – a significant increase from 64QAM, which is used in air MAX. With their use of proprietary air MAX ac technology, air MAX ac products supports up to 450+ Mbps real TCP/IP throughput – up to triple the throughput of standard air MAX products. Advanced RF Analyticsair MAX ac devices feature a multi-radio architecture to power a revolutionary RF analytics engine. An independent processor on the PCBA powers a second, dedicated radio, which persistently analyzes the full 5 GHz spectrum & every received symbol to provide you with the most advanced RF analytics in the industry. Real-Time Reportingair OS 8 displays the following RF information:• Persistent RF Error Vector Magnitude (EVM) constellation diagrams• Signal, Noise, & Interference (SNI) diagrams• Carrier to Interference-plus-Noise Ratio (CINR) histograms Spectral Analysisair View means that you can identify noise signatures & plan your networks to minimize noise interference. air View performs the following functions:• Constantly monitors environmental noise• Collects energy data points in real-time spectral views• Helps optimize channel selection, network design, & wireless performance In air View, there are three spectral views, each of which represents different data: waveform, waterfall, & ambient noise level.air View provides powerful spectrum analyzer functionality, eliminating the need to rent or purchase additional equipment for conducting site surveys.UNMS App The Power Beam 5AC Gen 2 integrates a separate Wi-Fi radio for fast & easy setup using your mobile device. Accessing air OS via Wi-Fi The UNMS™ app provides instant accessibility to the air OS configuration interface & can be downloaded from the App Store (i OS) or Google Play™ (Android). UNMS means that you can set up, configure, & manage the Power Beam 5AC Gen 2 & offers various configuration options once you're connected or logged in. Hardware Overview The Power Beam 5AC Gen 2 supports up to 450+ Mbps real TCP/IP throughput & features enhanced surge protection. Innovative Mechanical Design• Built-in mechanical tilt Mounting bracket conveniently offers elevation adjustments: ± 20° tilt.• Quick assembly Minimal fasteners simplify installation.• Easy removal The antenna feed can be detached with the push of a button. Industrial-Strength Construction• Fasteners GEOMET-coated for enhanced corrosion resistance when compared with zinc-plated fasteners. • Dish & brackets made from galvanized steel that is powder-coated for superior corrosion resistance. The hardware also prevents paint from being removed from the metal brackets for enhanced corrosion resistance.• Optional support In high-wind environments, you can enhance support with additional hardware (not included).PBE-5AC-Gen 2 The dish reflector design of the PBE-5AC-Gen 2 makes it an ideal CPE for deployments requiring maximum performance. A protective radome is available as an optional accessory for the PBE-5AC-Gen 2. Model Frequency PBE-5AC-Gen 2 Dish R PBE-5AC-ISO-Gen 2 The PBE-5AC-ISO-Gen 2 offers a rear housing with a metal-plated interior, designed to enhance RF shielding. in addition, an included protective radome shields the Power Beam 5AC ISO Gen 2 from nature's harshest elements. Breakthrough RF Isolation The integrated isolator design spatially filters out interference, so the PBE-5AC-ISO-Gen 2 delivers enhanced noise immunity in co-location deployments. Compare the two near-field plots below, & note the superior performance of the integrated RF isolator. Both near-field plots are displayed in watts & use a linear scale. The strength of the electromagnetic field is color-coded:• Red: Highest strength• Green: Medium strength• Indigo: Lowest strength
