Ubiquiti airFiber 5X AF-5G23-S45 23dBi slant antenna

Pair an airFiber® X antenna with an AirFiber X radio to create a high-performance link, point-to-point (PtP) bridge or network backhaul (AirFiber X radio sold separately). The airFiber X antenna uses the 5 GHz frequency band.

Superior performance

The airFiber X antenna is dual polarity 2x2. Below is an example of how the airFiber X antenna with an AirFiber X radio can be installed as an endpoint in a backhaul link to provide bandwidth from a WISP network to a neighborhood tower. From there, an airMAX® sector antenna with a Rocket® radio delivers bandwidth to WISP customers.

Great design

Featuring a parabolic reflector design allowing for excellent beam directivity, airFiber X antennas feature a robust mechanical design utilizing industrial strength hardware for outdoor applications.

Plug and play integration

The airFiber X antennas and airFiber X radios have been designed to operate without interruption. Each airFiber X antenna has a built-in radio mount, so installation requires no special tools.

Insert the AirFiber X radio in a secure position and mount the antenna; you then have the optimal combination of antenna and radio for your PtP application.

Hardware overview

• Safe pole mounting Maintains disc position despite harsh external conditions;
• Low profile form factor of the AF-5G23-S45 Reduces wind load;
  
• Protective shell Protects cables and connectors from atmospheric agents;
• Integrated radome Protects the radio from the elements.

Advanced irradiation design

The innovative industrial design improves RF isolation to significantly reduce interference and deliver superior gain for high capacity multipoint networks.

The AF-5G23-S45's near-field plot is displayed in watts and uses a linear scale. The strength of the electromagnetic field is color coded:
• Red: maximum resistance
• Green: medium strength
• Indigo: low resistance

Housed in a compact form factor (378mm diameter), the AF-5G23-S45 offers 23dBi of gain and offers the following benefits:
• Low sidelobes reduce interference from other transmitters in the area.
• High insulation improves performance for placement in tower installations.
• Low profile design with integrated radome reduces wind loading.
