Ubiquiti Networks PBE-5AC-620 PowerBeam High-Performance airMAX Bridge

Ubiquiti Networks airMAX PBE-5AC-620-US Overview

The Ubiquiti Networks PBE-5AC-620 PowerBeam AC is a high-performance airMAX bridge built for CPE deployments that demand top speed and reliability. Designed with a precision parabolic reflector and Ubiquiti’s exclusive airMAX AC technology, it delivers faster data rates, lower latency, improved noise filtering, and excellent scalability. With the ability to push throughput beyond 450 Mbps and maintain stable links over 30+ kilometers, it’s an ideal solution for long-distance wireless connectivity.

One of its key advantages is InnerFeed technology, which integrates the radio directly into the antenna’s feed horn. This removes the need for external RF cables, eliminating cable loss and improving overall performance. On top of that, Ubiquiti’s custom airMAX engine features a dedicated chip that enhances TDMA performance, reduces latency, and allows the network to scale more efficiently.

Thanks to enhanced beam steering, the PowerBeam AC also holds strong in areas with high interference, ensuring consistent connections even in noisy environments. The airMAX TDMA protocol further supports scalability by enabling high throughput and low latency across license-free multipoint networks.

For flexibility, the PowerBeam AC supports both point-to-point (PtP) and point-to-multipoint (PtMP) modes. Channel width options include 10/20/30/40/50/60/80 MHz in PtP mode and 10/20/30/40 MHz in PtMP mode, giving users the ability to optimize performance based on deployment needs.

Installation is straightforward with Ubiquiti’s mounting system, offering a tilt range of 20° up and 10° down, along with an additional ±15° adjustment for fine-tuning alignment.
