Rocket 5ac Lite access point
The Ubiquiti Networks Rocket 5ac Lite is an airMAX AC base-station radio built for point-to-point wireless links. It operates in the 5150 to 5875 MHz band and supports channel widths of 20, 40, 50, 60 or 80 MHz as local regulations allow. The unit is rated for outdoor use from -40 to 80 °C and up to 95 % humidity.
256-QAM modulation
The radio uses 256-QAM modulation to maximise spectral efficiency on each channel. This single physical-layer feature determines the peak throughput available for a given channel width and link budget. Firmware updates are planned to add point-to-multipoint capability, but the hardware ships optimised for point-to-point backhaul.
RP-SMA antenna connector
Installers who can supply their own RocketDish or compatible RP-SMA antenna will get a complete high-performance link. Buyers who need an all-in-one integrated antenna or a different connector type should look at other models.

Questions about this item
What does the 5150–5875 MHz frequency range mean for my wireless link?
It defines the operating band the radio uses; actual channels and allowed widths are set by your local regulator.
How do the 20, 40, 50, 60 and 80 MHz channel widths affect throughput?
Wider channels carry more data, but the maximum width you can select is limited by country regulations.
What antenna connector does the radio use for mounting a RocketDish?
It uses RP-SMA connectors to attach a RocketDish antenna for point-to-point backhaul.
