Description
airMAX AC RocketDish, 5 GHz, 31 dBi Antenna
The RD-5G31-AC RocketDish AirMAX 2x2 PtP Bridge Dish Antenna from Ubiquiti Networks provides a gain of 31 dBi for creating a high-speed, reliable Point-to-Point (PtP) bridge and networking backhaul when paired with an optional Rocket M5 or Rocket5ac BaseStation. Ubiquiti has improved the RD-5G31's F/B ratio and outfitted it with high isolation to create a better Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR), which allows the use of higher-order modulation to increase the maximum data rate. With an improved F/B ratio and lower sidelobes, interference from other transmitters in the area is lowered. In addition, the antenna operates under the 5 GHz frequency and supports airMAX technology, which uses a Time Division Multiple Access protocol to send and receive data at pre-designated time slots.
Ubiquiti Networks has designed the RD-5G31-AC RocketDish for outdoor use and included brackets and fasteners so you can mount it to a pole. To withstand nature's harsh conditions, the dish and mounting bracket of the antenna are crafted with lightweight aluminum. For easy alignment of the dish, a bubble level is on board. Furthermore, the dish is protected with an included radome, and the cables and connectors are housed in a metal shroud.

Breakthrough Design and Performance
The powerful RocketDish™ ac Antennas feature carrier-class construction and 2x2, dual-polarity performance.
Powerful Beam Directivity
The RocketDish™ ac Antennas feature high isolation and improved F/B ratio for better Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR), which allows the use of higher-order modulation and the maximum data rate.
Reduced Interference, Higher Gain
The improved F/B ratio and lower sidelobes significantly reduce interference, so the innovative RocketDish™ ac Antennas provide superior gain and beam performance for high-capacity, multipoint networks.
Industrial-Strength Construction
RocketDish™ ac Antennas are designed with robust mechanical design for outdoor application use.
Weatherproof Design
Ruggedized yet lightweight components resist corrosion and are designed to withstand harsh outdoor conditions. The included radome and metal shroud help protect against nature’s elements.
