Ubiquiti Networks RocketM5 5GHz 2x2 MIMO airMAX BaseStation

Featuring mix-and-match industrial design, the Rocket is a Ubiquiti Networks airMAX BaseStation that supports speeds of up to 150+ Mbps real TCP/IP throughput. It is ideal for deployment in Point-to-Point (PtP) bridging or Point-to-MultiPoint (PtMP) airMAX applications.

The 5 GHz frequency band is free to use, worldwide, offers plentiful spectrum and works well for long-distance links. However, 5 GHz signals have more difficulty passing through obstacles than lower-frequency signals.

M5
The Rocket enclosure is built to survive harsh environments and fits the Rocket mount built into every airMAX antenna. Pair the Rocket with the appropriate antenna for your PtP link or PtMP network.

Flexibility
The Rocket is available in several frequency models: 900 MHz, 2.4 GHz, 3/3.65 GHz and 5 GHz, to support your specific application. You have the freedom to locate, deploy and operate the Rocket in these unlicensed bands (subject to local country regulations). The Rocket allows for a high degree of flexibility in configuring channel bandwidths: 2, 3, 5, 8, 10, 20, 25, 30, and/or 40 MHz, depending on the specific product model and local country regulations.

Plug and Play Integration
Rocket radios and airMAX antennas have been designed to seamlessly work together. Every airMAX Sector, Rocket Dish, Omni or Yagi antenna has a built-in Rocket mount, so installation requires no special tools. Snap the Rocket securely into place and mount the antenna; then you have the optimal combination of Rocket radio and airMAX antenna for your PtP or PtMP application.

airMAX Technology Included
Unlike standard Wi-Fi protocol, Ubiquiti's Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) airMAX protocol allows each client to send and receive data using pre-designated time slots scheduled by an intelligent AP controller. This time slot method eliminates hidden node collisions and maximizes airtime efficiency. It provides many magnitudes of performance improvements in latency, throughput and scalability compared to all other outdoor systems in its class.

Intelligent QoS
Priority is given to voice/video for seamless streaming.

Scalability
High capacity and scalability.

Long Distance
Capable of high-speed, carrier-class links.
