Overview:
The airFiber X Antennas feature significant advances in noise isolation and beam performance to complement the airFiber X radios for carrier backhauls and Point-to-Point (PtP) bridging (airFiber X radio sold separately).
Powerful Performance
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.
Application Example
Carrier-Class Construction
Incorporating a dish reflector design for excellent beam directivity, the airFiber X antennas feature robust mechanical design using industrial‑strength hardware for outdoor application use.
Plug and Play Integration
airFiber X antennas and airFiber X radios have been designed to seamlessly work together. Every airFiber X antenna has a built-in airFiber X radio mount, so installation requires no special tools. Snap the airFiber X radio securely into place and mount the antenna; you then have the optimal combination of airFiber X antenna and airFiber X radio for your PtP application.
Mounting the AF-5X (airFiber X radio sold separately)
Features:
Innovative Mechanical Design
- Secure Pole-Mounting
Maintains the position of the dish during harsh outdoor conditions. - Low-Profile Form Factor of the AF-5G23-S45
Reduces wind-loading.
Weatherproof Design
- Protective Shroud
Protects the cables and connectors from the elements. - Integrated Radome of the AF-5G23-S45
Shields the radio from the environment.
Compact Footprint for Deployment Flexibility
The compact form factor allows the airFiber X Antennas to be used in various applications, from carrier backhauls between towers to PtP bridging between buildings.
The airFiber X supports ± 45° slant polarization for improved noise immunity and Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR). The compact form factor of the airFiber X allows it to fit into the radio mount of Ubiquiti antennas, so installation requires no special tools.
The airFiber X antennas are purpose-built with 45° slant polarity for seamless integration with the airFiber X.
Avanced RF Isolation Design
The innovative industrial design improves RF isolation to significantly reduce interference and deliver superior gain for high-capacity, multipoint networks. The near-field plot of the AF-5G23-S45 is displayed in watts and uses a linear scale. The strength of the electromagnetic field is color-coded:
- Red: Highest strength
- Green: Medium strength
- Indigo: Lowest strength
airFiber X Conversion Kit
The 5 GHz RocketDish to airFiber Antenna Conversion Kit, model AF-5G-OMT-S45, converts the RocketDish RD-5G30 or RD-5G34 antenna for use with the airFiber AF-5X radio.

Accessories:
(Model: ISO-BEAM-620)
The IsoBeam is an isolator radome that is available as an optional accessory for the AF-5G30-S45 and other dish antenna models:
- RocketDish RD-5G30-LW
- PowerBeam PBE-5AC-620
- PowerBeam PBE-M5-620
The innovative RF-choke perimeter of the IsoBeam delivers superior noise immunity in co-location deployments; its perimeter corrugation provides enhanced RF shielding. Compare the two near-field plots below, and note the breakthrough isolation performance of the IsoBeam.
Both near-field plots are displayed in watts and use a linear scale. The strength of the electromagnetic field is color-coded:
- Red: Highest strength
- Green: Medium strength
- Indigo: Lowest strength
Precision Alignment Kit
The Precision Alignment Kit is available as an optional accessory for the AF-5G30-S45. It features 15° of azimuth adjustment and 15° of elevation adjustment to enable extremely accurate aiming for optimal PtP link performance.
The Precision Alignment Kit is also compatible with other dish antenna models:
- RocketDish RD-5G30-LW
- PowerBeam PBE-5AC-620
- PowerBeam PBE-M5-620
