Long-range 5 GHz PtMP client radio
The Ubiquiti Networks LTU-XR is a 5 GHz LTU client radio designed for point-to-multipoint links up to 35 km. It connects to an LTU Rocket base station using a proprietary LTU processor and a 29 dBi antenna with InnerFeed technology. The radio supports channel widths of 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 MHz and achieves up to 1024 QAM modulation.
Suited for WISPs needing maximum reach
Wireless ISPs building long-distance subscriber links will benefit from the 35 km range and 550 Mbps throughput capability. The Bluetooth management radio allows setup and configuration through the UISP Mobile app. Installations that require standard Wi-Fi interoperability or shorter-range sector coverage should consider other product lines.
Proprietary LTU air interface
The radio uses Ubiquiti's proprietary LTU protocol, so it only works with compatible LTU Rocket base stations and cannot join standard Wi-Fi networks. This single constraint determines whether the unit fits an existing deployment or a new LTU-only build.

Questions about this item
How do I mount the LTU-XR and align its 29 dBi InnerFeed® antenna for a 35 km link?
Use the included pole-mount bracket to secure the unit on a mast, then aim the narrow-beam antenna precisely at the LTU Rocket base station using the UISP® Mobile app's Bluetooth signal-strength meter to lock in the best alignment before tightening all bolts.
What parts of the LTU-XR will need attention or replacement after extended outdoor exposure?
The weatherproof enclosure and pole-mount hardware are built for long-term outdoor use; periodically inspect seals, cable glands, and mounting bolts for corrosion or loosening, and replace any degraded UV-damaged cables or connectors to maintain the 35 km link reliability.
What throughput ceiling will I hit first on a sustained 35 km link with 1024 QAM modulation?
The radio tops out at 550 Mbps throughput under ideal conditions; real-world sustained rates will be limited by the chosen channel width (10/20/30/40/50 MHz), link quality at 35 km, and interference, so expect the 550 Mbps cap to be the first hard limit reached.
