airFiber 2.4 GHz Radio
airFiber 2X
Pair an airFiber® X antenna with an airFiber X radio to create the endpoint of a high-performance, Point-to-Point (PtP) bridge or network backhaul (airFiber X radio sold separately). The airFiber X antenna delivers 2x2, dual-polarity performance. On the right is one example of how the airFiber X antenna with an airFiber X radio can be deployed as endpoints in a backhaul link to deliver bandwidth from a WISP network out to a neighborhood tower. From there, an airMAX® Sector antenna with a Rocket® radio delivers bandwidth to the WISP’s customers.
Performing as a carrier-class network backhaul, airFiber® delivers robust
FDD performance in full-duplex mode with 0.2 millisecond latency.
Spectral Efficiency Breakthrough
airFiber® implements the most efficient use of unlicensed-band spectrum – a vital attribute in increasingly crowded RF environments. By employing a unique dual-antenna design and proprietary self-interference cancellation algorithms, airFiber extracts more usable channels out of the available spectrum than any other comparable radio system. airFiber’s built-in configuration tool guides the selection of RF channel bandwidths, transmit power, and other parameters to minimize interference potential and optimize link budgets.
Innovative Design, RF Agility
airFiber provides unparalleled flexibility, allowing independently selectable, asymmetric TX/RX channel bandwidths and selectable TX/RX frequencies wherever spectrum is available and without being locked into predetermined FDD channel pairs. Split-frequency TDD operation facilitates maximum versatility in avoiding interference in today’s crowded bands. Channel width flexibility allows you to independently configure TX and RX channel widths (10/20/30/40/50 MHz) and place them anywhere within the radio band to suit your link.
Powerful Multi-Mode Duplexing
airFiber® supports all duplexing modes: TDD, FDD, and Ubiquiti’s patented HDD – no other radio system
provides this level of flexibility. Ubiquiti’s proprietary protocol enables time-synchronous packet transmission,
resulting in the lowest possible, sub-millisecond latency – vital for backhaul performance.
Line-Rate Packet Processing
Ubiquiti’s custom silicon, our proprietary INVICTUS™ core communications
processing engine, powers airFiber® to process 2+ million packets per second.
Clean Power Output
Using digital pre-distortion compensation and multi-IFFT processing, airFiber® delivers the cleanest output spectrum for unlicensed-band radio systems. This reduces the potential impact on the RF noise environment and allows for the use of higher-order modulation, such as 1024QAM.
