• New Antenna Design with +6dBi Gain
• Improved Radio Design
• Improved Surge Protection
• Management WiFi Radio / UISP Mobile App
• Uniform Beamwidth Maximizes Noise Immunity
• Dedicated Wi-Fi Radio for Management
• airMAX ac Processor for Superior Performance

Improved Noise Immunity

The NanoBeam 5AC Gen 2 directs RF energy in a tighter beamwidth. With the focus in one direction, the NanoBeam 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.

Well Integrated Design

The radio and antenna are combined to create a more efficient and compact CPE. The NanoBeam 5AC Gen 2 gets maximum gain out of the smallest footprint.

Providing high performance and an innovative form factor, the NanoBeam 5AC Gen 2 is versatile and cost‑effective to deploy.

airOS® 8 Software Compatible

airOS® 8 is the revolutionary operating system for Ubiquiti® airMAX ac products.

airMAX ac Technology

Unlike standard Wi-Fi protocol, Ubiquiti’s Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) airMAX protocol allows each client to send and receive data using pre-designated time slots scheduled by an intelligent AP controller.

This time slot method eliminates hidden node collisions and maximizes airtime efficiency, so airMAX technology provides performance improvements in latency, noise immunity, scalability, and throughput compared to other outdoor systems in its class.

• Intelligent QoS Priority assigned to voice/video for seamless streaming
• Scalability High capacity and scalability
• Long Distance Capable of high-speed, carrier-class links

Superior Performance

The next-generation airMAX ac technology boosts the advantages of our 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.

Throughput Breakthrough

This airMAX ac supports high data rates, which require dense modulation: 256QAM – a significant increase from 64QAM, which is used in airMAX.

With their use of proprietary airMAX ac technology, airMAX ac products supports up to 450+ Mbps real TCP/IP throughput – up to triple the throughput of standard airMAX products.

Hardware Overview

The NanoBeam 5AC Gen 2 features airMAX ac technology and enhanced protection against ESD events.

Ease of Installation

• Quick Installation:
  No fasteners are required for pole-mounting, and a single wall fastener (not included) is required for wall‑mounting
• Convenient Alignment:
  The NanoBeam 5AC Gen 2 pivots on its ball joint 3‑axis mount for easy aiming

Innovative Mechanical Design

• Efficient Footprint:
  The radio and antenna are combined into a single body that takes up less space. The form factor has the highest gain for its size
• Aesthetics:
  The NanoBeam 5AC Gen 2 is small enough to blend discreetly into the background at a customer's location
• Versatile Mounting:
  The NanoBeam 5AC Gen 2 can be mounted in almost any position needed for line of sight
