Puente de red UBIQUITI LiteBeam AC LBE-5AC-Gen2 — 2,4/5 GHz, antena de 23 dBi, 450 Mbit/s, PoE, 1x RJ-45

The Ubiquiti LiteBeam AC is an ultra‑lightweight airMAX ac CPE network bridge designed for long‑distance point‑to‑point and point‑to‑multipoint links. It combines a high‑gain 23 dBi directional 2x2 MIMO antenna with a compact, tool‑free industrial design and a separate management Wi‑Fi radio for fast mobile setup. The device supports dual‑band operation (2.4 / 5 GHz), airOS®8 software with airMAX ac protocol and real‑time RF analytics, and physical protection enhancements including improved surge and ESD resistance.

Advantages

The LiteBeam AC delivers long‑range connectivity with a 23 dBi directional antenna and 2x2 MIMO for improved throughput and noise immunity. A dedicated management Wi‑Fi radio makes setup quick using a smartphone. airOS®8 adds protocol support, RF monitoring (airView®) and an updated interface for easier configuration. The housing and mount include enhanced ESD protection and separate azimuth and elevation adjustments, while the compact, lightweight form factor simplifies shipping and installation.

Suitable for

• Long‑distance wireless links between buildings
• Outdoor point‑to‑point and point‑to‑multipoint CPE installations
• Bridging networks where compact, lightweight equipment is required

How to use

Mount the LiteBeam AC on a pole or mast using the included hardware; final pole tightening requires a single wrench. Use the three‑axis alignment features to set azimuth and elevation for accurate aiming. Power and data are provided via the single Ethernet port using PoE (refer to the product manual for compatible PoE adapters and polarity). Complete initial configuration and link testing through the integrated management Wi‑Fi radio and the airOS®8 web interface or mobile setup tools.

Recommendations

For best performance, align the antenna carefully toward the remote station, use clear line‑of‑sight, and monitor RF conditions with airView®. Install surge protection where required by local regulations and avoid installing in locations with excessive obstructions or reflective surfaces.
