Drill-Free Mounting: Your NanoBeam Window Mount
Do you want to set up a radio link but are not allowed to drill holes in the facade? The Ubiquiti NBE-16-WM is your solution. This special suction cup mount for NanoBeam was developed to securely and stably attach your hardware to any clean, smooth glass surface. Ideal for rental apartments, offices, or temporary installations. The industrial suction cup locks with a simple twist, ensuring a rock-solid hold you can trust. This makes complicated Mounting Systems a thing of the past.
Perfect Alignment Thanks to Flexible Ball Joint
A stable connection stands or falls with the correct alignment. The integrated ball joint of the NBE-16-WM gives you full control. You can tilt and swivel your NanoBeam with millimeter precision to establish a perfect line-of-sight connection to the counterpart. This way, you get the maximum performance from your connection and ensure that your data packets arrive without loss. Precise adjustment is crucial, especially with airMAX ac Components, which require exact alignment for high throughputs.
Compatibility and Important Notes
This mounting kit is a specific Ubiquiti Accessory and was precisely designed for the models NBE-M5-16 and NBE-5AC-16. Please note that it is not suitable for other NanoBeam models such as the Gen2 or the 19-series variants. For optimal hold, the surface must be absolutely clean, dry, and non-porous. Dust, grease, or even strong temperature fluctuations can affect the adhesive strength over time. We therefore recommend regularly checking the mount's seating to ensure permanently secure operation.
Installation in Seconds – Completely Tool-Free
Forget the toolbox. Installing the NBE-16-WM is incredibly simple and done in less than a minute. Thoroughly clean the window pane, press the suction cup to the desired position, turn the locking mechanism, and click your NanoBeam onto the ball joint. Done! The mount can be removed just as quickly and without leaving any residue. You cannot expand your Network more easily and flexibly.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Is the NanoBeam device included in this kit?
No, the Ubiquiti NBE-16-WM is exclusively the mounting bracket (suction cup). The NanoBeam radio must be purchased separately as part of your Ubiquiti Accessories.
Can I use this bracket for my NanoBeam NBE-5AC-Gen2?
No, according to the official datasheet, the NBE-16-WM is specifically designed for the NBE-M5-16 and NBE-5AC-16 models. Separate Mounting Systems are available for other models, such as the NBE-5AC-19 or Gen2, from Ubiquiti Networks.
How secure is the attachment with the suction cup?
The Mounting System uses an industrial suction cup with a locking mechanism, ensuring a very secure hold. A clean, dry, and completely smooth surface is required. It is recommended to check the adhesion regularly for optimal performance of your Ubiquiti Accessories.
Does mounting behind a window pane affect signal quality?
Yes, any barrier, including glass, can attenuate signal strength and quality for your Network. Modern window panes, especially those with metallic coatings or insulation, can affect performance more significantly than simple glass. Window mounting is often a compromise when outdoor mounting is not feasible for your Antennas.
Do I need tools for installation?
No, the installation of the NBE-16-WM is completely tool-free. The suction cup is locked by hand, and the NanoBeam device clicks onto the ball joint, simplifying the setup of your Mounting Systems.
Does the suction cup also hold on surfaces other than glass?
The suction cup is optimized for non-porous, absolutely smooth surfaces such as glass, smooth tiles, or high-gloss painted metal. It will not hold on porous, textured, or rough surfaces, which is important for reliable Mounting Systems.
