FAQ
What frequency range does the Ubiquiti AMO-5G13 antenna support?
The Ubiquiti AMO-5G13 antenna operates within the 5.45 GHz to 5.85 GHz frequency range, which falls under the SHF (Super High Frequency) band. This range is suitable for high-capacity wireless links, offering reduced interference compared to lower bands and supporting applications like point-to-multipoint networking or backhaul connections in licensed or unlicensed spectrum environments.
What is the antenna gain and how does it affect performance?
This antenna has an isotropic gain of 13 dBi, which measures its ability to focus signal strength in a specific direction relative to an ideal radiator. The 13 dBi gain enhances signal reach and reliability over long distances, improving link budgets for outdoor deployments. It helps maintain stable connections in challenging conditions, such as through foliage or across urban landscapes, by boosting transmitted and received signal power.
Is this antenna omni-directional or directional?
The Ubiquiti AMO-5G13 is an omni-directional antenna, meaning it radiates signal uniformly in all horizontal directions. This design provides 360° coverage, making it ideal for base station applications where clients are distributed around a central point. It simplifies installation by eliminating the need for precise directional alignment, though it may have less focused gain compared to directional antennas in specific beam patterns.
What does dual polarity MIMO 2x2 mean for this antenna?
Dual polarity MIMO 2x2 refers to the antenna's use of two polarization states (e.g., vertical and horizontal) with two spatial streams to improve wireless performance. This configuration enhances throughput by allowing multiple data streams over the same frequency, reduces multipath interference, and increases network capacity. It supports advanced MIMO technologies in compatible radios, such as Ubiquiti RocketM basestations, for better reliability in dense or dynamic RF environments.
How is this antenna mounted and what is included for installation?
The antenna features a pole-mount form factor and comes with a universal pole mount, RocketM bracket, and weatherproof RF jumpers in the package. It is designed for vertical installation on standard poles or masts, with the bracket securing it firmly to prevent movement. The included jumpers ensure reliable, weather-resistant connections to compatible radios, providing a complete setup without additional accessories for typical outdoor deployments.
What devices is the Ubiquiti AMO-5G13 antenna compatible with?
This antenna is specifically compatible with Ubiquiti RocketM basestation radios, which are part of the airMAX product line. It integrates seamlessly with these radios to form a complete wireless solution for point-to-multipoint or backhaul networks. The compatibility ensures optimal performance when used within the Ubiquiti ecosystem, supporting features like MIMO and high-gain operation without requiring adapters or modifications.
