Frequently Asked Questions
What is the primary operational frequency range for the Ubiquiti airFiber 60? +
The airFiber 60 operates on the 60 GHz frequency band. This high-frequency spectrum allows for high-capacity, low-latency point-to-point bridging, making it an ideal choice for short-to-medium range backhaul applications where interference-free performance is critical for dense network environments.
What kind of throughput can I expect from the airFiber 60 antenna? +
This unit is designed for high-performance Gigabit connectivity. By utilizing the 60 GHz band, it supports multi-gigabit throughput, facilitating reliable data transmission for bandwidth-intensive tasks like enterprise video surveillance backhaul, fiber-extension links, or interconnecting separate office buildings with minimal latency.
How does the 38 dBi gain rating affect the deployment of this antenna? +
The 38 dBi antenna gain provides a high level of signal directivity and focus. This high gain allows the system to maintain a stable, high-capacity link over greater distances while effectively minimizing signal leakage, which is essential for maintaining signal integrity in outdoor wireless bridge deployments.
Does the Ubiquiti airFiber 60 require precise alignment during installation? +
Due to the narrow beamwidth characteristic of high-gain 60 GHz antennas, precise alignment is mandatory for optimal performance. Proper physical mounting and fine-tuning are required to ensure the signal is perfectly centered, maximizing throughput and link stability between the paired airFiber 60 units.
Is the airFiber 60 suitable for long-range point-to-point wireless backhaul? +
The airFiber 60 is optimized for short-to-medium range links. While the 60 GHz band offers exceptional speed, it is subject to oxygen absorption and signal attenuation over very long distances. It is best utilized for high-capacity links where fiber-like performance is needed without the cost of trenching cables.
What are the common mounting requirements for the AF60-AU? +
The unit is designed for standard pole mounting common in outdoor wireless installations. Because it functions as a highly directional antenna, you must use a rigid, wind-resistant mast to prevent physical vibrations or swaying, which could cause signal fluctuations or complete link drops during inclement weather conditions.
How does weather impact the performance of the airFiber 60? +
Operating in the 60 GHz band means the system can be affected by heavy rain or intense atmospheric conditions known as rain fade. However, its high gain helps compensate for these factors, and it remains a robust solution for most climates when configured correctly for your specific geographic link path.
Is the AF60-AU manageable through standard Ubiquiti network software? +
Yes, the airFiber 60 is designed for integration into the Ubiquiti UISP ecosystem. This allows for centralized management, remote monitoring of link status, throughput tracking, and firmware updates, providing network administrators with clear visibility into the health and performance of their point-to-point wireless infrastructure.
How can I request a bulk quote for multiple airFiber 60 units? +
