Ubiquiti Networks AF-5X airFiber X 5GHz Wireless Carrier Backhaul Radio - Brand New

Overview
Ubiquiti Networks continues to disrupt the wireless broadband market with revolutionary technology at breakthrough pricing by introducing airFiber® X, a modular airFiber radio system that will serve a wide range of frequencies and is designed to be compatible with a variety of Ubiquiti® antennas.

Building upon the proven design of the airMAX® Rocket™ system, airFiber X allows you to customize airFiber backhaul links or upgrade existing Rocket Point to Point (PtP) links. The first airFiber X model is the AF 5X model for use in the 5 GHz frequency band.

Engineered for Performance
Ubiquiti’s INVICTUS™ custom silicon and proprietary radio architecture are designed specifically for long-distance, outdoor wireless applications.

Our INVICTUS core communications processing engine surpasses all of the limitations inherent to generic Wi-Fi chips to provide superior performance, long-range capability, DFS flexibility, and power output.

The AF-5X features industry leading 10.6 bps/Hz spectral efficiency, line rate data packet processing for up to 500+ Mbps of real data throughput, and innovative xtreme Range Technology (xRT™) for up to 200+ km in range.

5 GHz Backhaul Full-Band Certification with DFS
The AF -5X covers the entire, license -free, 5 GHz spectrum and includes DFS approval. Anyone around the world can deploy and operate the AF -5X in the 5 GHz range practically anywhere they choose (subject to local country regulations).

Optimal Operation in Unlicensed Bands
Channel width flexibility (10/20/30/40/50 MHz) allows independent TX and RX channel frequency configurations anywhere within the radio band to avoid local interference, and the channel centers are selectable in 1 MHz increments. You also have the ability to program different uplink and downlink duty cycles to support asymmetric traffic requirements.

Ultra-Low Latency with HDD Technology
The AF -5X is designed to provide the highest TDD throughput available and is engineered with proprietary Hybrid Division Duplexing (HDD) technology.

In a backhaul link, two AF -5X radios use patent -pending HDD technology to calculate the propagation delay and know when each radio can transmit and receive, so they send packets in precise synchronization. Packet transmission latency is virtually eliminated.

Co-Location
Co-location is vital in many scenarios. For example, a WISP may have limited tower space, so it must co-locate all equipment within that allotted footprint.

GPS Synchronization
Precise GPS frame synchronization frees the AF-5X from interference for superior co-location capability. GPS enables the concurrency of TX and RX frames so you can co-locate the AF-5X radios and enhance the overall performance of your backhaul links.

Clean Power Output
Using digital pre-distortion compensation and multi-IFFT processing, the innovative RF design delivers ultra-clean power output that improves noise immunity and co location performance. This reduces the potential impact on the RF noise environment and allows for the use of higher-order modulation, such as 256QAM.

Deployment Flexibility
The AF-5X supports ± 45° slant polarization for improved noise immunity and Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR). It is compatible with multiple Ubiquiti antennas offering gain of 23 to 34 dBi. The compact form factor of the AF-5X allows it to fit into the radio mount of Ubiquiti antennas, so installation requires no special tools.
