17.1 dBi 90° Sector Antenna
The Ubiquiti Networks AM-5G17-90 is a new airMAX 2x2 MIMO BaseStation sector antenna built for outdoor Point-to-MultiPoint networks. It delivers 17.1 dBi gain across the 4.90 to 5.85 GHz band with a 90-degree beamwidth. A built-in Rocket mount allows tool-free integration with compatible RocketM BaseStations for rapid deployment.
Suited for sector coverage builds
This antenna fits installers deploying carrier-class sector nodes who need strong cross-polarization isolation and noise resistance. It is not for clients requiring omnidirectional coverage or operators working outside the 5 GHz frequency range. Builders needing 60° or 120° beamwidth options should evaluate other models in the airMAX line.
17.1 dBi gain at 90° beamwidth
The single specification that decides fit is the 17.1 dBi gain combined with a fixed 90-degree azimuth pattern. This gain and beamwidth pair defines the sector footprint and link budget for high-capacity multipoint networks. Match these values to your RF design before purchasing.
