airFiber 5xHD - 5 GHz Carrier Radio with LTU[tm] Technology

As bandwidth demands and scalability challenges increased through the years, Ubiquiti responded with performance-enhancing innovations such as the airMAX® TDMA protocol, PRISM® active RF filtering, and GPS synchronization - all working to extract every ounce of potential from consumer 802.11 Wi-Fi chipsets.

However, we always knew that one day growing subscriber bandwidth demands combined with an increasingly crowded unlicensed RF spectrum would expose the fundamental limitations of 802.11 Wi-Fi silicon and ultimately threaten the survival of our industry.

Years ago, a core group of engineers at Ubiquiti set out to make sure this day would never come. We began an ambitious plan that would span millions of man hours of development and tens of millions of dollars of investment. The result was a new technology and ASIC chipset created from the ground floor up specifically for the Wireless ISP industry - a technology we believe positions our Industry to succeed in the new challenging landscape of the future. Welcome to what we call the Long Term Ubiquiti vision, or simply LTU[tm].

Ubiquiti continues to disrupt the wireless broadband market with revolutionary LTU technology that breaks through the limitations of 802.11 Wi-Fi technology. Designed for use in the 5 GHz frequency band, the new airFiber® AF-5XHD is Ubiquiti's first LTU radio, offering greater channel bandwidths of up to 100 MHz, and more advanced RF components.

Pair the AF-5XHD with a compatible Ubiquiti® airFiber X antenna or RocketDish[tm] antenna for a complete 5 GHz Point-to-Point (PtP) solution.

An IP67 upgrade kit is included to provide enhanced protection from dust and water.

Engineered for Performance

Designed specifically for the Wireless ISP industry from the ground floor up, the AF-5XHD's custom LTU silicon and radio architecture provide breakthrough performance. Its core communications processing engine surpasses the limitations inherent to generic Wi-Fi chips to provide low latency, long-range capability, DFS flexibility, higher constellations, and better power output, along with improved receive sensitivity.

The AF-5XHD features industry-leading 21.2 bps/Hz spectral efficiency*, line-rate data packet processing for up to 1.34 Gbps of real data throughput*, and innovative xtreme Range Technology (xRT[tm]).

* Assuming 4096QAM (requires firmware version 1.1.2 or above).

Key Features

* Auto Output Power - Enabled by default, the Auto Output Power option causes the AF-5XHD to set the output power (EIRP) to the appropriate level.

* Programmable Transmit Power - The radio's transmit power level can be programmed up to +29 dBm.

* Programmable DL/UL Ratio - The AF-5XHD can split downlink and uplink traffic and support asymmetric traffic as needed. DL/UL ratios include 25%, 33%, 50%, 67%, and 75%. The DL/UL Ratio is an essential part of GPS sync functionality; it must be the same in all APs that you wish to synchronize.

* Configurable GPS Synchronization - The AF-5XHD offers configurable support for 2, 2.5, 4, and 5 ms frames. Timing is compatible with all other synchronous systems, and 5 ms frame length is compatible with airMAX networks.

* Split TX and RX Frequency1 - The radio can operate on different frequencies for TX and RX, allowing great flexibility for interference avoidance.

* Split TX and RX Channel Bandwidth2 - Support for different channel bandwidths for TX and RX allows users to scale required data capacity more efficiently.

* Adaptive Modulation up to 4096QAM1 - Adaptive modulation rates of up to 4096QAM are supported.

* Dual Redundant Gigabit Ethernet Ports with PoE - The AF-5XHD has two Gigabit Ethernet ports that can be used for redundant PoE power.

* Bluetooth Wireless Configuration - Use the built-in Bluetooth interface for wireless configuration.
