Compact 5 GHz radio for long-range links
The Ubiquiti Networks Loco5ACUS combines a 5 GHz radio and directional antenna in a single NanoStation housing. It delivers up to 450 Mbps throughput over distances beyond 10 km. The unit runs airOS 8 and is managed through the UISP platform. Installers who need a low-profile customer-premises device for point-to-point or point-to-multipoint deployments will find it fits the role.
Replaces older 5 GHz CPE with lower throughput
The airMAX AC chipset raises capacity above earlier M-series units while keeping the same mounting footprint. A dedicated spectral-analysis radio helps choose clean channels before the link is commissioned. The upgrade is worthwhile when existing gear cannot sustain 450 Mbps or when spectral congestion demands real-time scanning. Buyers who need more than one radio chain or integrated PoE injection should look elsewhere.
Sustained output with selectable channel widths
In point-to-point mode the radio supports 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60 and 80 MHz channels; point-to-multipoint operation uses 10 to 40 MHz. Automatic distance selection adjusts ACK timing for link stability over long paths. Transmit power control keeps output within regulatory limits during continuous operation. The gigabit Ethernet port prevents the wired side from becoming the bottleneck.

Questions about this item
What mounting hardware does the Loco5ACUS require for installation?
The unit uses the classic NanoStation form factor with integrated radio and antenna, mounting directly to a pole or wall using the included bracket system. No separate antenna assembly is needed.
How is the 24V 0.3A gigabit PoE injector connected during setup?
Connect the injector LAN port to your router or switch, then run a single Ethernet cable to the Loco5ACUS LAN port. The injector must be powered separately as it is not included in the box.
What ongoing maintenance does the dedicated spectral analysis radio need?
The spectral analysis radio operates passively within airOS 8 for interference monitoring. No user maintenance is required; firmware updates via UISP keep the analysis features current.
