Ubiquiti Airfiber Model Comparison

Efficient by Design

Every detail of airFiber was designed and engineered by the Ubiquiti R&D Team. From the silicon chip up to the innovative split-antenna architecture, the Ubiquiti R&D Team created airFiber to deliver superior throughput with efficiency. airFiber was purpose-built to create a high performance backhaul.

Plug and Play Deployment

Based on Ubiquiti’s innovative and intuitive airOS, the airFiber Configuration Interface enables quick deployment. With installation efficiency in mind, the mechanical design allows easy installation by one person. A two-person installation crew can effectively install and align an airFiber link.

Designed for Freedom

airFiber operates in worldwide, license-free, 24 or 5GHz frequencies. Anyone around the world can purchase and operate airFiber without any special permits, paperwork, or added licensing costs. Users are free to locate, deploy, and operate airFiber practically anywhere they choose (subject to local country regulations).

Built for Speed and Range

airFiber delivers gigabit performance at 1.2+Gbps for airFiber AF-5/AF-5U, 1.5+ Gbps for airFiber AF-24, and 2Gbps for airFiber AF-24HD. To put this in perspective, airFiber can transmit a 100 MB file in less than a second. Rivaling common broadband providers, airFiber download speed is up to 100x faster. With speed and throughput surpassing conventional wired backhauls, airFiber prevails over expensive and labor-intensive wired infrastructures.

Superior 24GHz Performance

airFiber AF-24/AF-24HD provides a breakthrough in 24 GHz backhaul performance. Systems for millimeter-wave frequencies typically experience RF losses when part of the RF is lost in the switches and filters. The Ubiquiti R&D team eliminated such RF losses with separate yet integrated TX and RX antennas, so the link budget is robust and the airFiber AF-24/AF-24HD has better noise figure and higher transmit power efficiency.

Two airFiber 24GHz Models

Two models deliver superior speed with spectral efficiency in the worldwide, license-free, 24GHz radio band. The standard model, AF-24, delivers up to 1.5+Gbps throughput at a range of up to 13+ km. The heavy-duty model, AF-24HD, provides more throughput at up to 2Gbps and increased range of up to 20+ km. It also includes a more rugged exterior with a metal reflector, to protect against nature’s harshest elements.

NOTE:Price shown is for a single unit. airFiber is normally purchased in pairs to form a single link.
