FAQs
What is the coverage pattern of the AM-5AC21-60?
The antenna provides a 60-degree sector coverage pattern, making it ideal for point-to-multipoint deployments where you need directional coverage across a defined area.
Is this antenna compatible with other Ubiquiti equipment?
Yes, the AM-5AC21-60 is compatible with Ubiquiti Rocket Prism 5AC and other airMAX AC systems. Verify compatibility with your specific access point before purchasing.
What does 21dBi gain mean, and why does it matter?
21dBi is the antenna gain rating, which indicates the strength of the signal transmission and reception. Higher gain antennas provide greater range and directional focus, ideal for extending coverage to distant client locations.
Is installation difficult, and what mounting hardware is included?
The antenna includes mounting accessories and brackets for standard installation. Professional installation is recommended to ensure optimal orientation and alignment for best performance.
Can this antenna be used indoors?
No, the AM-5AC21-60 is designed for outdoor applications. The robust mechanical design is built to withstand weather conditions, and indoor use is not recommended.
What does dual-polarity mean?
2x2 dual-polarity means the antenna transmits and receives on both horizontal and vertical polarisations simultaneously, improving signal quality, link stability, and overall network performance.
