Maximum Performance for your airFiber X Network Backhaul
The AF-5G30-S45 is more than just an Antenna – it is the crucial puzzle piece for your high-performance directional radio Network. It was developed from the ground up for seamless cooperation with Ubiquiti airFiber X radio modules, such as the AF-5X or AF-5XHD. The ingenious, integrated radio mounting bracket allows you to simply click in the radio module – completely without tools. This not only saves time during installation but also ensures optimal signal transmission and reliably protects the connections from weather influences.
Built to Last: Robust Construction for Extreme Conditions
If you are looking for an Antenna for demanding outdoor use, the AF-5G30-S45 is the right choice. Ubiquiti made no compromises here: The Mounting System consists of galvanized, powder-coated steel, which offers superior corrosion protection. Even the fasteners are provided with a special GEOMET coating, which makes them even more resistant. This weatherproof 30dBi Dish Antenna for WISP withstands wind speeds of up to 200 km/h, making it the ideal choice for exposed locations.
Precision that Connects: Interference Immunity and Exact Alignment
In environments with many radio signals (co-location), the AF-5G30-S45 fully plays to its strengths. The deep reflector design in combination with the ±45° Slant polarization effectively suppresses side lobe noise and interference signals. The result is a clean signal and a stable connection, even when other Networks are nearby. For setting up a perfect Point-to-Point (PtP) Bridge, exact alignment is crucial. Thanks to the integrated spirit level and precise height adjustment, you can achieve the setup quickly and reliably. This allows you to get the maximum out of your connection, especially when using the Ubiquiti Antenna for AF-5XHD Radio modules.
Strengths & Notes at a Glance
- Pro: Excellent interference immunity due to Slant-45 polarization and high F/B ratio, ideal for locations with many radio systems.
- Pro: Extremely robust and durable construction for harsh outdoor use with superior corrosion protection.
- Pro: Seamless and tool-free integration with airFiber X radio modules significantly reduces installation time.
- Pro: Precise alignment aids such as spirit level and fine adjustment for maximum signal strength over long distances.
- Note: Does not function independently. A compatible Ubiquiti airFiber X radio module must be purchased separately.
- Note: The very narrow beamwidth of 5.8° requires an exact and clear line-of-sight connection between the endpoints.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Is the Ubiquiti AF-5G30-S45 a complete WiFi Bridge?
No, the AF-5G30-S45 is just the passive antenna. To build a complete Point-to-Point (PtP) WiFi Bridge, you also need a Ubiquiti airFiber X radio module, such as the airFiber AF-5X, which is sold separately for your Network.
What range can I achieve with the AF-5G30-S45 Antenna?
The range largely depends on the airFiber X radio module used and environmental conditions. In combination with the powerful airFiber AF-5XHD Radio, ranges of over 100 km can be achieved under optimal conditions and with a clear line of sight for your Network.
What does 'Slant 45' Polarization mean?
'Slant 45' polarization means that the two internal antenna elements are tilted by 45 degrees relative to the horizontal and vertical planes. This slanted polarization improves interference immunity against commonly occurring vertically or horizontally polarized signals, thereby increasing the reliability of your Network connection.
Is the mounting material for a mast included?
Yes, a universal mast mount and all necessary screws and brackets are included as Antenna Mounting Accessories to securely attach the Antenna to a mast.
Can I use this Antenna with a radio module from another brand?
This is not recommended. The Antenna is mechanically and radio-technically optimized specifically for the Ubiquiti airFiber X series. The integrated bracket only fits these modules, and using other devices would impair performance and require cumbersome mounting, affecting your Network.
How resistant is the Antenna to severe weather?
The AF-5G30-S45 is designed for extreme weather conditions. It withstands wind speeds of up to 200 km/h, and the Antenna Mounting Accessories are extremely corrosion-resistant due to powder coating and special GEOMET coatings on the screws, ensuring robust Network performance.
