Ubiquiti UISP Wave Access Point - Wave-AP
The Ubiquiti Wave-AP 60 GHz PtMP access point, powered by Wave Technology, is a remarkable piece of networking hardware that can seamlessly connect up to 15 stations with high-speed internet. The Wave Access Point has a total throughput of up to 5.4 Gbps, which is twice the duplex throughput of 2.7 Gbps.
The Ubiquiti Wave-AP has a high-performance 5 GHz backup radio to ensure an uninterrupted connection, even during power outages. In addition, the device is equipped with a Bluetooth radio, which allows for easy setup through the UISP Mobile app.
One of the most impressive features of the Wave Access Point is its support for stations and distances. Wave Long-Range stations can be connected up to 8 km away, while Wave Nano stations can be connected up to 5 km away. This is particularly useful for rural areas where internet connectivity is scarce.
The UISP Wave-AP also comes with two WAN ports, including one 10G SFP+ port and one 2.5GbE port, which enable high-speed connectivity. The access point also has an integrated GPS antenna that helps with location tracking and provides accurate timestamps.
Link planning support is also available through the ISP Design Centre. This enables network engineers to design, plan and implement their networks with greater accuracy and reliability. With all these features and functionalities, the Ubiquiti Wave-AP 60 GHz PtMP access point is an excellent choice for high-speed internet connectivity.
