Learn what makes this product unique and why it’s right for you.

The PowerBeam 5AC Gen2 is a high‑gain, high-performance outdoor bridge built for long-distance point‑to‑point (PtP) or point‑to‑multipoint (PtMP) links in the 5 GHz band. It integrates the radio inside the dish feedhorn (Ubiquiti’s InnerFeed design) to eliminate cable losses. With 25 dBi antenna gain, support for airMAX ac, and a dedicated 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi radio for setup/management, the PowerBeam 5AC Gen2 delivers robust throughput, better noise immunity (via a tight beam), and reliable performance in challenging RF environments.
