Ubiquiti Rocket M5 (ROCKETM5)

Ubiquiti Rocket M5 is a powerful, professional solution for creating efficient high-bandwidth wireless networks. The access point uses the patented AirMax protocol with advanced TDMA technology, which completely eliminates collisions in the channel, due to which the device compares favorably with counterparts from other manufacturers. Parameters are configured via the web interface of the proprietary AirOS operating system, it is also possible to work with Rocket M5 using Telnet or SSH. The professional access point Ubiquiti Rocket M5 is a high-performance carrier-level solution for creating base stations in the 5 GHz band. This range is less noisy and preferable for use in places where the load of the widespread 2.4 GHz band is high.

   

The power of the Rocket M5 radio module is up to 27 dBm depending on the selected operating mode. Since Rocket access points do not have built-in antennas, Ubiquiti engineers developed several series of external antennas for them. These are omnidirectional AirMax Omni antennas, sector AirMax Sectors and narrowly oriented RocketDish with a parabolic reflector. The choice of model depends on the use of the access point - for long-range wireless bridges it is necessary to choose narrowly targeted, and sector or omnidirectional antennas are suitable for base stations.

The access point supports Wi-Fi 802 11 a / n, MIMO 2 × 2 mode, as well as the patented AirMax polling protocol developed by Ubiquiti for its own equipment. These characteristics allow the access point to achieve wireless speeds of up to 300 mb / s.

The advantages of the Ubiquiti Rocket M5 as a reliable solution for creating high-speed wireless channels are especially noticeable in urban areas, where the band noise is especially large.
