airMAX NanoBeam 5AC

The NBE-5AC-GEN2 (airMAX NanoBeam 5AC Gen2) is a compact UISP-ready 5 GHz wireless bridge featuring a sleek NanoBeam design with proprietary airMAX ac chipset, enhanced surge protection, dedicated spectral analysis radio, and dedicated management WiFi in a lightweight ball-joint-mounted form factor suited to East African PtP and CPE deployments requiring compact, flexible installation. Measuring 189 × 189 × 125 mm (7.44 × 7.44 × 4.92") and weighing 530 g (1.17 lb) in a UV-stabilised plastic enclosure, the NBE-5AC-GEN2 pivots on a ball joint for mounting and alignment flexibility with included pole mount kit (wall mount not included). 200 km/h wind survivability with 45.4 N wind loading. ±24 kV air/contact ESD/EMP protection. Environmental testing includes salt fog, vibration, temperature shock, UV, and wind-driven rain. Operating temperature: -40°C to 80°C (-40°F to 176°F). Fully NDAA compliant.

The NBE-5AC-GEN2 operates across 5150–5875 MHz worldwide delivering 450+ Mbps throughput over 10+ km links with 19 dBi integrated antenna gain, dual-linear polarization, and 1.5:1 maximum VSWR. PtP channel sizes of 10/20/30/40/50/60/80 MHz and PtMP channel sizes of 10/20/30/40 MHz. (2) GbE RJ45 ports provide primary data and secondary LAN connectivity. Powered via passive PoE 2-pair at 8.5W maximum (20–27V DC) with included 24V, 0.5A gigabit PoE adapter. Power, Ethernet, and (4) signal strength LEDs.
Additional specifications:

• CE, FCC, and IC certified, fully NDAA compliant

Ideal for building-to-building links, enterprise wireless backhaul, ISP CPE deployments, campus connectivity, medium-range PtP wireless links, and airMAX network deployments across Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda, and the wider East and Central Africa region requiring compact 5 GHz 19 dBi bridge performance with dual GbE ports, dedicated spectral analysis, dedicated WiFi management, and ball-joint alignment flexibility.
