Questions & Answers

FAQ

What is the purpose of Ubiquiti's InnerFeed technology in the PowerBeam ac?

Ubiquiti's InnerFeed technology integrates the radio directly into the feedhorn of the antenna, eliminating the need for a cable. This integration improves performance by reducing cable losses and enhancing signal strength.

How does the Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) airMAX protocol work in the PowerBeam ac?

The TDMA airMAX protocol allows each client to send and receive data using pre-designated time slots scheduled by an intelligent AP controller. This method eliminates hidden node collisions and maximizes airtime efficiency, resulting in substantial improvements in latency, noise immunity, scalability, and throughput.

What is the advantage of the PowerBeam ac's support for 256QAM modulation?

The support for 256QAM modulation allows the PowerBeam ac to achieve higher data rates. This is a significant increase from the 64QAM used in standard airMAX products, enabling the PowerBeam ac to support real TCP/IP throughput of up to 450+ Mbps.

What is the range of the PowerBeam ac 620mm 5GHz High-Performance airMAX Bridge?

The PowerBeam ac 620mm 5GHz High-Performance airMAX Bridge offers a long-range coverage of over 30 kilometers, making it ideal for high-speed, carrier-class links.

Can the PowerBeam ac prioritize voice and video streaming?

Yes, the PowerBeam ac is designed with intelligent Quality of Service (QoS) settings, which assign priority to voice and video streaming to ensure seamless, uninterrupted transmission.
