UBNT AirFiber AF-5, 1Gbps Backhaul, 5.4-5.9GHz

Ubiquiti Networks introduces our proprietary INVICTUS™ core communications processing engine. The speed, power, and efficiency of this integrated circuit enhances the performance of the airFiber AF-5/AF-5U. Surpassing conventional wired backhauls, the airFiber®5 delivers real throughput of up to 1.2+ Gbps with 1024QAM modulation speed.

The airFiber®5 operates in worldwide, license-free, 5 GHz frequencies. Users can deploy airFiber5 almost anywhere they choose (subject to local country regulations). The airFiber®5 supports FDD (Frequency Division Duplexing) in full-duplex mode for < 1 ms latency, resulting in increased efficiency for carrier-class network backhauls. Designed to be a high-performance backhaul, the airFiber®5 performs at a range of up to 100+ km.


Newly designed for the airFiber AF-5/AF-5U, the Radio Alignment Display (RAD) makes aiming quicker and easier. The dual, calibrated signal strength indicators display the actual signal strength on the local and remote airFiber radios in real time. The comprehensive array of radio status indicators display the following:

• GPS synchronization status
• Master/slave mode
• RF link status
• RF overload warning
• Current modulation mode
• Link activity and speed for wired
• management and data ports
