Ubiquiti airFiber 5XHD AF-5XHD

The Ubiquiti airFiber 5XHD AF-5XHD is an advanced, high-performance 5GHz backhaul radio designed for long-range Point-to-Point (PtP) connections. Featuring Ubiquiti’s proprietary LTU technology, this radio provides exceptional throughput, low latency, and remarkable range capabilities. With a frequency range of 4.8 to 6.2 GHz and a reach of up to 62 miles, it is ideal for creating high-capacity wireless links in challenging environments. The AF-5XHD supports GPS synchronization, hybrid duplexing, and adaptive modulation for superior flexibility and performance. It’s an optimal solution for network operators, ISPs, or anyone requiring a reliable, scalable wireless backhaul solution.

Product Features

Programmable Transmit Power

The AF-5XHD allows for adjustable radio transmit power, with programmable levels up to +29 dBm, ensuring optimal signal strength for various deployment needs and operational environments.

Hybrid Division Duplexing (HDD) Technology

This unique technology reduces latency and enhances the performance of PtP links by synchronizing transmit and receive frames in real-time, ensuring highly efficient data transmission with virtually no delay.

Adaptive Modulation Up to 1024QAM

The radio supports adaptive modulation up to 1024QAM (with a future upgrade to 4096QAM), ensuring efficient data transmission under varying network conditions and providing the flexibility needed for high-capacity backhaul links.

Dual Gigabit Ethernet Ports with PoE Support

With two Gigabit Ethernet ports, the AF-5XHD can provide redundant power through Power over Ethernet (PoE), ensuring reliability and minimizing downtime during network outages.

GPS Synchronization for Co-Location

Precise GPS synchronization enables multiple AF-5XHD radios to be co-located on the same tower, minimizing interference and improving the overall performance of your network.

Bluetooth Wireless Configuration

Set up and manage your AF-5XHD using the built-in Bluetooth interface, which simplifies configuration and troubleshooting without requiring physical access to the device.

User-Configurable Interference Mitigation

Three user-selectable interference profiles ensure optimal performance, whether you’re deploying in high-interference areas or in “greenfield” environments with minimal interference.
