airFiber 5 (AF-5) — 5GHz Full-Duplex Gigabit Backhaul Radio
Mid-band 5 GHz1.2+ Gbps100+ km rangeGPS sync
The Ubiquiti airFiber 5 (AF-5) is a carrier-class, full-duplex point-to-point radio for the mid-band 5 GHz spectrum, delivering real throughput of 1.2+ Gbps over links reaching 100+ km. Its FDD full-duplex design keeps latency under 1 ms, while 2×2 MIMO with separated transmit and receive streams and GPS synchronization make it a dependable long-haul backhaul for WISPs and enterprises. Sold under part number AF-5 (EAN 0810354022067). Typically in stock with fast delivery across Cyprus.
Compatibility & setup: airFiber is a point-to-point system — a link requires two AF-5 units, one at each end, with clear line of sight. It uses the mid-band 5 GHz spectrum; confirm local licensing and channel availability before deployment. GPS synchronization helps co-located links coexist. The radio provides a Gigabit Ethernet data port and is configured via airOS/airFiber software.
Best For
✓Long-range carrier and WISP backhaul
✓Building-to-building gigabit links
✓Multi-gigabit spans where fiber is impractical
✓Low-latency full-duplex point-to-point
✓GPS-synchronized co-located links
✓5 GHz mid-band deployments
Key Features
Full-Duplex Gigabit
FDD full-duplex operation delivers 1.2+ Gbps of real throughput with sub-1 ms latency for carrier-class backhaul.
100+ km Range
Designed for long-haul links, airFiber 5 can span more than 100 km with the right line of sight and antennas.
2×2 MIMO
Separated transmit and receive streams increase bandwidth and reliability on the point-to-point link.
GPS Synchronization
Built-in GPS sync coordinates timing so multiple co-located airFiber links coexist with minimal interference.
Technical Specifications
Frequently Asked Questions
Singular Expert Insight
airFiber 5 is a proven workhorse for long-range 5 GHz backhaul, pairing full-duplex gigabit throughput with GPS sync for dense WISP deployments. Remember a link needs two units and clear line of sight. For the very highest throughput over shorter spans, Ubiquiti’s 60GHz Wave family is worth comparing; for extreme range at 5 GHz, look at the airFiber 5XHD. Explore related long-range wireless options to match distance and capacity.
