airFiber 5XHD
What is the best 5 GHz radio for 1 Gbps+ point-to-point backhaul links over 100 km?
The airFiber 5XHD (AF-5XHD) is Ubiquiti's flagship spectrally efficient PtP radio, built exclusively for WISPs and telecoms operators who need gigabit-class backhaul at distances that defeat lesser radios. Simplifi Networks — the Authorized Master Distributor for Ubiquiti in Kenya and Uganda — supplies the AF-5XHD to network operators across East Africa replacing fibre-limited or legacy microwave links with high-throughput wireless backbone.
True 1+ Gbps throughput at 100+ km range — with GPS sync, a dedicated spectral analysis radio, and AES-256 encryption — the AF-5XHD is the backbone radio for serious East African WISP infrastructure.

About the airFiber 5XHD
- 1+ Gbps throughput at 100+ km — Gigabit-class wireless backhaul at distances spanning entire counties or cross-border links — replaces expensive licensed microwave at a fraction of the deployment cost.
- Dedicated spectral analysis radio — A separate radio continuously scans the spectrum without interrupting the active link — your operations team sees RF interference before it degrades subscriber experience.
- Integrated GPS sync — GPS synchronisation reduces self-interference between co-located sectors to ±0.2 ppm frequency accuracy — essential for dense WISP tower sites across Kenya and Uganda.
- AES-256 encryption — Military-grade encryption on every packet — carrier-grade security for ISP backbone links carrying subscriber traffic across East Africa.
- Selectable 10–100 MHz channel bandwidth — Tune channel width to balance throughput against spectral availability — adaptable to the fragmented 5 GHz regulatory environment across East African markets.
Simplifi: The WISP Backbone Distributor for Kenya and Uganda
- Authorized Master Distributor — Simplifi is Ubiquiti's official distribution partner for Kenya and Uganda — every AF-5XHD is sourced through the manufacturer's authorised channel, not grey-market imports.
- Genuine Hardware — GPS, spectral scanning, and AES-256 are hardware-level features — counterfeits cannot replicate them. Our units are factory-genuine and firmware-unlocked correctly for regional frequencies.
- Official Local Warranty — A failed backbone radio means network downtime affecting subscribers. Our warranty is processed in Nairobi and Kampala — fast local resolution, not international RMA delays.
- B2B Technical Support — Long-range link budget design, GPS sync tower planning, frequency coordination, and airFiber antenna pairing — dedicated WISP infrastructure support across East Africa.
