Description

The Ubiquiti PBE-5AC-500-AU is an airMAX PowerBeam ac 5 GHz wireless bridge with an integrated 500 mm dish reflector delivering 27 dBi of antenna gain. It provides 450+ Mbps of real TCP/IP throughput and link ranges of 25+ km, making it well suited to long-distance point-to-point backhaul between buildings or remote sites. This is the AU version and includes a 24V 0.5A gigabit PoE adapter.

InnerFeed technology integrates the radio into the antenna feedhorn to eliminate cable losses, while a custom airMAX ac processor with a hardware-accelerated TDMA scheduler supports low latency and scalability. The UV-stabilised polycarbonate enclosure, protective radome and corrosion-resistant hardware suit permanent outdoor installation. A link is formed by pairing two units, so they must be purchased in pairs.

FAQs

Q: Do I need to buy two of these to make a link?
A: Yes. A point-to-point link requires a radio at each end, so the PBE-5AC-500-AU must be purchased in pairs.

Q: Is a PoE adapter included?
A: Yes. The AU version ships with a 24V 0.5A gigabit PoE adapter, and the unit is powered using passive 2-pair PoE.

Q: What throughput and range can I expect?
A: The PowerBeam 5AC 500 delivers 450+ Mbps of real TCP/IP throughput and supports link ranges of 25+ km with clear line of sight.

Q: What is the difference between this and smaller PowerBeam models?
A: This model uses a 500 mm dish with 27 dBi gain, offering higher gain and longer reach than the smaller dish variants in the PowerBeam ac range.

Q: How is it mounted?
A: A pole mount is included, and the snap-and-lock assembly allows installation with a single wrench.

Q: What operating frequency does it use?
A: It operates in the 5 GHz band using airMAX ac technology and runs airOS v7.
