Description

Ubiquiti RD-5G30-LW (RocketDish 5 GHz, 30 dBi) Product Description

The Ubiquiti RD-5G30-LW is a high-performance dish antenna designed for use with Ubiquiti’s Rocket radios to create long-range, high-throughput wireless point-to-point (PtP) and point-to-multipoint (PtMP) links. This 5 GHz, 30 dBi antenna offers exceptional gain and precision, enabling stable and reliable communication over vast distances, even in environments with high interference. Built for outdoor environments, the RD-5G30-LW is ideal for use in backhaul links, wireless ISP networks, and enterprise-grade wireless applications, making it an essential tool for extending network coverage or creating dedicated wireless links between remote locations.

The RD-5G30-LW uses a parabolic dish design to focus the signal, achieving high directional gain, which reduces interference and boosts long-range performance. Its 30 dBi gain ensures it can communicate over distances of several kilometers with a high degree of stability and low latency, even in environments with high wireless congestion. This high level of gain is essential for long-distance backhaul or high-capacity PtP links where both signal strength and clarity are paramount.

The RD-5G30-LW is designed to be paired with Ubiquiti’s Rocket M or Rocket AC radios, transforming them into powerful wireless access points or backhaul devices that are capable of delivering gigabit speeds in the 5 GHz frequency band. With the RocketDish’s advanced antenna technology and the Rocket radio’s powerful data handling, you can create highly reliable and efficient wireless connections in scenarios where wired infrastructure is impractical or cost-prohibitive.

The antenna features an integrated mounting system for easy installation on a variety of poles or mounting structures. It is designed for use in harsh weather conditions and is built with a rugged, weather-resistant housing that ensures durability and reliable performance even in extreme temperatures, wind, and rain. This makes it ideal for deployments in remote, outdoor environments, such as for rural broadband deployments, enterprise wireless networks, or large-scale outdoor point-to-point connections.
