Ubiquiti airMAX LiteBeam AC Gen2 LBE-5AC-GEN2

Ubiquiti airMAX LiteBeam AC Gen2 (model LBE‑5AC‑GEN2) is a high‑performance outdoor wireless broadband CPE designed to deliver reliable long‑distance 5 GHz connectivity for point‑to‑point (PtP) and point‑to‑multipoint (PtMP) links. Featuring airMAX ac technology, a 23 dBi high‑gain directional antenna and a rugged, weather‑resistant build, this unit provides focused signal transmission with enhanced noise immunity, making it ideal for ISP backhaul, rural broadband distribution, campus connectivity and outdoor network expansion.

Product Features

High‑Gain Directional Antenna

The integrated 23 dBi directional antenna focuses RF energy for extended range and improved link reliability, helping maintain strong connections over long distances with reduced interference.

airMAX ac Wireless Performance

Built on airMAX ac protocol, the LiteBeam AC Gen2 supports high throughput and low latency for both PtP and PtMP wireless setups, delivering efficient spectrum use and stable data transfer.

Integrated Management Wi‑Fi Radio

Includes a dedicated management radio that allows quick setup and monitoring using Ubiquiti Network Management System (UNMS) or mobile‑based tools, simplifying configuration without a wired laptop.

Passive PoE Power Delivery

Supports 24 V passive PoE with an included adapter, enabling both data and power over a single Ethernet cable to reduce installation complexity and cabling.

Rugged Outdoor Design

Engineered for outdoor environments with robust materials, strong ESD protection and high wind survivability, this unit operates reliably in extreme conditions across a wide temperature and humidity range.

Flexible Channel and Mounting Options

Selectable channel widths and an adjustable pole‑mount kit with azimuth and elevation alignment allow precise tuning and optimal signal alignment for efficient link performance.
