Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Ubiquiti Networks®
airFiber® 5 GHz Full Duplex Point-to-Point Gigabit Radio.
This User Guide is for use with the following models:
Model Description
Operating Frequency*
AF-5
Supports mid-band frequencies
5470 - 5950 MHz
AF-5U
Supports high-band frequencies
5725 - 6200 MHz
* Refer to “Specifications” on page 40 for more
information.
The mid-band model, AF-5, features the popular mid-band
frequencies, which are freely used in many parts of
the world. The high-band model, AF-5U, which can
operate in the 5.7 - 6.2 GHz bands, has robust filtering to
enable co-location with devices operating in the lower 5
GHz bands while allowing operation at a higher output
power in many areas of the world.
The same instructions apply to both models, and the User
Guide will refer to both models as the airFiber AF-5.
