PBE-5AC-GEN2 - 5 GHz High Performance airMAX(R) ac Bridge

PBE-5AC-Gen2 - 5 GHz High Performance airMAX ac Bridge

• Highly efficient antenna beam performance
• Up to 450+ Mbps throughput
• Dedicated Wi-Fi radio for management

launches the latest generation of airMAX CPE (Customer Premises Equipment), the PowerBeam 5AC Gen 2, with dedicated Wi-Fi management.

Improved Noise Immunity

The PowerBeam 5AC Gen 2 directs RF energy in a tighter beamwidth. With the focus in one direction, the PowerBeam 5AC Gen 2 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

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 5AC Gen 2 is versatile and costeffective to deploy.

Hardware Overview

Featuring improved surge protection, the PowerBeam 5AC Gen 2 is available in single- or fivepacks.

Innovative Mechanical Design

• Built-in mechanical tilt: Mounting bracket conveniently offers elevation adjustments: +/- 20° tilt.
• Quick assembly: Minimal fasteners simplify installation.
• Easy removal: The antenna feed can be detached with the push of a button.

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 powdercoated for superior corrosion resistance. The hardware also prevents paint from being removed from the metal brackets for improved corrosion resistance.
• Optional support: In high-wind environments, you can enhance support with additional hardware (not included).
