Ubiquiti Rocket M5-AC Lite 450Mbps PtP/PtMP Wireless Bridge

Key Features

• Up to 450Mbps with 802.11ac MCS-9 (256QAM, 5/6 coding)

• Up to 500mW output power (27dBm)

• 10/100/GigEth RJ-45 Input

• 2x RP-SMA Female antenna connections

• Radio only (external antenna required)

• 24VDC POE Injector (Passive) & 240V AC Adaptor included.

Usage

• Introducing the next step for the Ubiquiti Rocket series

• The Rocket M5-AC now sports a gigabit Ethernet connection permitting cabled data rates in excess of the previous 100Mbps fast-eth limitation

• With the advent of the 802.11ac standard, Rocket-AC can modulate at 256QAM, permitting PHY rates of up to 450Mbps on a 50MHz channel

• Numerous chipset improvements have also been included, resulting in reduced TDMA latency and performance in noisy RF environments

• With version 7.1.1 being released the Rocket AC-Lite can now operate in Point to Multi-Point. The next-generation airMAX ac technology boosts the advantages of Ubiquiti's proprietary TDMA protocol

• Ubiquiti’s airMAX engine with custom IC dramatically improves TDMA latency and network scalability

• The custom silicon provides hardware acceleration capabilities to the airMAX scheduler, to support the high data rates and dense modulation used in airMAX ac technology.

High Speed Network Sharing

• This is a transparent data-link layer bridge, not a routed bridge - this means that you are creating a virtual ethernet cable between the two facilities, making network setup incredibly simple - no routing configuration, all protocols (DHCP, DNS, etc) just work

• Management of the Ubiquiti device couldn't be easier with SSH and SNMP protocol support, as well as a very intuitive HTTP interface

• The units are powered via Power over Ethernet (PoE) - simply plug one end of the Ethernet cable into the Rocket, and the other into the PoE Injector (which is plugged into AC power)

• This allows one cable to both power the unit and also carry network traffic. We recommend using Cat6 Outdoor UV Shielded Cable with this unit.
