Sector Coverage

The airMAX Sector Antenna is a
Carrier Class 2x2 Dual Polarity MIMO
Sector Antenna that was designed to
seamlessly integrate with RocketM
radios (RocketM sold separately).

Pair the RocketM’s radio with the
airMAX Sector Antenna’s reach to
create a powerful basestation. This
versatile combination gives network

architects unparalleled exibility and

convenience.

the airMAX Sector Antenna can be

Utilize airMAX Technology*

Unlike standard Wi-Fi protocol,
Ubiquiti’s Time Division Multiple
Access (TDMA) airMAX protocol
allows each client to send and receive
data using pre-designated time
slots scheduled by an intelligent AP
controller.

This “time slot” method eliminates
hidden node collisions and maximizes

airtime efciency. It provides

many magnitudes of performance
improvements in latency, throughput,
and scalability compared to all other
outdoor systems in its class.

Intelligent QoS Priority is given to
voice/video for seamless streaming.

Scalability High capacity and
scalability.

Long Distance Capable of
high-speed, carrier-class links.

Software

airOS is an intuitive, versatile,

highly developed Ubiquiti rmware

technology. It is exceptionally
intuitive and was designed to require
no training to operate. Behind
the user interface is a powerful

rmware architecture, which

enables high-performance, outdoor
multipoint networking.

• Protocol Support

• Ubiquiti Channelization

• Spectral Width Adjustment

• ACK Auto-Timing

• AAP Technology

• Multi-Language Support

Integrated on all Ubiquiti M
products, airView provides Advanced
Spectrum Analyzer Functionality:
Waterfall, waveform, and real-time
spectral views allow operators to
identify noise signatures and plan
their networks to minimize noise
interference.

• Waterfall Aggregate energy over

time for each frequency.

• Waveform Aggregate energy

collected.

• Real-time Energy is shown in real

time as a function of frequency.

• Recording Automate airView to

record and report results.

airControl is a powerful and
intuitive, web-based server network
management application, which
allows operators to centrally manage
entire networks of Ubiquiti devices.
