Datasheet

With the NanoBridge®, Ubiquiti
Networks

™

pioneered the all-in-one
design for an airMAX® product
functioning as a CPE (Customer
Premises Equipment).

The NanoBridge combines Ubiquiti's
InnerFeed

™

and airMAX technologies
to create a simple, yet powerful
wireless unit capable of up to

100+Mbps real outdoor throughput
and up to 30+kmrange.

InnerFeed Technology

Ubiquiti’s revolutionary InnerFeed
technology integrates the radio into
the feedhorn of an antenna, so there
is no need for a cable*. This improves
performance because it eliminates
cable losses.

Providing high performance and
robust all-in-one mechanical design
at a low cost, the NanoBridge is
extremely versatile and cost-effective
to deploy.

Application Examples

PtMP Client Links

The NanoBridge used as a CPE device for each client in an airMAX PtMP network.

Wireless Client

PtP Link

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 signicant 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
multi-point networking.

• Ubiquiti Channelization

• Spectral Width Adjustment

• ACK Auto-Timing

• AAP Technology

• Multi-Language Support

Datasheet

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.
