Ubiquiti airMAX PowerBeam ac 2.4GHz 18dBi CPE w/ 400mm Dish

PBE-2AC-400 - Ubiquiti 2.4 GHz High-Performance airMAX® ac Bridge with Dedicated Wi-Fi Management 

Ubiquiti Networks launches the latest generation of airMAX® CPE (Customer Premises Equipment), the PowerBeam® 2AC, with dedicated Wi-Fi management.

Improved Noise Immunity of PowerBeam:

The PowerBeam 2AC directs RF energy in a tighter beamwidth. With the focus in one direction, the PowerBeam 2AC blocks or spatially filters out noise, so noise immunity is improved. This feature is especially important in an area crowded with other RF signals of the same or similar frequency.

Integrated Design 

• Ubiquiti’s InnerFeed® technology integrates the radio into the feedhorn of an antenna, so there is no need for a cable. This improves performance because it eliminates cable losses.
• Featuring high performance and innovative design, the PowerBeam 2AC is versatile and cost-effective to deploy.

Powerful Wireless Features

• High-performance airMAX ac CPE
• airMAX ac Protocol Support
• Long-Range Point-to-Point (PtP) Link Mode
• Selectable Channel Width
• PtP: 10/20/40 MHz
• PtMP: 10/20/40 MHz
• Automatic Channel Selection
• Transmit Power Control: Automatic/Manual
• Automatic Distance Selection (ACK Timing)
• Strongest WPA2 Security

Usability Enhancements

• airMagic® Channel Selection Tool
• Redesigned User Interface
• Dynamic Configuration Changes
• Instant Input Validation
• HTML5 Technology
• Optimization for Mobile Devices
• Detailed Device Statistics
• Comprehensive Array of Diagnostic Tools, Including RF Diagnostics and airView® Spectrum Analyzer

Advanced RF analytics

airMAX ac devices feature a multi -radio architecture to power a revolutionary RF analytics engine. An independent processor on the PCBA powers a second, dedicated radio, which persistently analyzes the full 2.4 GHz spectrum and every received symbol to provide you with the most advanced RF analytics in the industry.

Real-Time Reporting

airOS 8 displays the following RF information:

• Persistent RF Error Vector Magnitude (EVM) constellation diagrams
• Signal, Noise, and Interference (SNI) diagrams
• Carrier to Interference-plus-Noise Ratio (CINR) histograms

Spectral Analysis

airView allows you to identify noise signatures and plan your networks to minimize noise interference. airView performs the following functions:

• Constantly monitors environmental noise
• Collects energy data points in real -time spectral views
• Helps optimize channel selection, network design, and wireless performance

In airView, there are three spectral views, each of which represents different data: waveform, waterfall, and ambient noise level. airView provides powerful spectrum analyzer functionality, eliminating the need to rent or purchase additional equipment for conducting site surveys.

Hardware Overview

Innovative Mechanical Design

• Convenient pole-mounting Only a single wrench is needed to mount the PowerBeam 2AC on a pole.
• Easy removal The antenna feed can be detached with the push of a button.
• Built-in mechanical tilt The mounting bracket offers elevation adjustments of up to ±20°.

Industrial-Strength Construction

• Fasteners GEOMET-coated for improved corrosion resistance when compared with zinc-plated fasteners.
• Dish and brackets Made of galvanized steel that is powder-coated for superior corrosion resistance.
• Optional support In high-wind environments, you can enhance support with additional hardware (not included).
