Ubiquiti airMAX LiteBeam AC Gen2 LBE-5AC-GEN2

The Ubiquiti airMAX LiteBeam AC Gen2 (LBE-5AC-GEN2) is a high-performance, ultra-lightweight CPE (Customer Premises Equipment) device designed for long-range 5 GHz wireless connectivity. Featuring a 23 dBi gain directional antenna, this model is part of Ubiquiti’s airMAX AC series and is ideal for point-to-point (PtP) or point-to-multipoint (PtMP) wireless networks, especially in environments with high RF interference.

Product Features

• 5 GHz Radio Frequency: Operates on the 5 GHz band, reducing interference from 2.4 GHz devices, which is essential for stable long-range connections.
• 23 dBi Gain: The high-gain 23 dBi directional antenna focuses the signal in one direction, improving signal strength over longer distances while reducing noise interference. This ensures better performance in noisy RF environments.
• airMAX AC Chipset: Features Ubiquiti’s airMAX ac chipset, providing better throughput and efficiency for high-speed wireless connections. It also enhances noise immunity in crowded RF environments.
• 2×2 MIMO Technology: Dual-stream MIMO (Multiple Input, Multiple Output) allows for faster data rates and better range, ensuring 450+ Mbps throughput.
• Dedicated Management Wi-Fi: Supports UISP mobile app (formerly known as UNMS), making setup and management fast and easy via a dedicated Wi-Fi management radio.
• Adjustable Mounting: The LiteBeam AC Gen2 offers three-axis adjustability for flexible mounting options. This allows for precise alignment of the antenna to ensure optimal signal performance.
• Compact and Lightweight Design: At just 2.16 pounds, the LiteBeam AC Gen2 is lightweight and easy to install, ideal for both indoor and outdoor deployments.

Networking Interface

• 1× Ethernet Port: Gigabit Ethernet port (10/100/1000) supports high-speed data transfer to the device.

Channel Sizes

• Point-to-Point (PtP) Mode: Supports 10/20/30/40/50/60/80 MHz channel sizes.
• Point-to-Multipoint (PtMP) Mode: Supports 10/20/30/40 MHz channel sizes, optimizing for higher scalability in multi-user environments.
