Ubiquiti AM-5G16-120: The Flexible Entry
Large antennas with high gain are great for long distances, but they have a downside: their beam is extremely flat ("thin"). If you are standing on a hill and want to serve customers in the valley, you often shoot right over them with a large antenna.
This is where the AM-5G16-120 is the better choice.
Why Less is Sometimes More
This antenna has "only" 16 dBi gain, but opens vertically to 8 degrees (instead of 4 degrees on the 19 dBi version).
This makes alignment much easier. You cover a larger height range, which is ideal for:
* Towers that are not extremely high.
* Hilly terrain.
* Shorter distances where maximum signal strength is not the main issue.
3-Sector Design
Since it covers 120 degrees horizontally, you need exactly three of these antennas (and three Rocket Radios) to offer all-around service (360°). This is the gold standard for professional WISP installations, as you distribute the load across three radios.
Seamless Integration
The housing is robust, UV-stable, and weatherproof. The Rocket M5 or Rocket 5AC clips onto the back. The connection cables disappear under a protective cover.
