Ubiquiti RocketDish 5G30 for Point-to-Point Networks
The RocketDish 5G30 is suited to wireless infrastructure where a narrow, directional connection is required between two locations. When combined with a compatible Rocket M BaseStation, it can be used to establish wireless bridges and network backhaul links without requiring a physical cable between buildings or sites.
Its directional dish design concentrates the wireless signal, making it particularly useful for longer-distance links where signal strength, stability, and efficient spectrum use are important.
High-Gain 5GHz Wireless Performance
The antenna provides different gain levels across its supported frequency range:
- Frequency range: 4.9 - 5.8 GHz
- Gain at 4.9 GHz: 26 dBi
- Gain at 5 - 5.9 GHz: 30 dBi
- Antenna technology: 2x2 MIMO
- Polarization: Dual-linear
The high-gain design helps create a focused wireless beam for point-to-point connections, making the RocketDish suitable for network links between buildings, remote sites, and other locations requiring directional wireless connectivity.
Built for Outdoor Wireless Installations
The RocketDish 5G30 is intended for outdoor deployment and includes the components needed for mounting and RF connection. A universal pole mount and Rocket bracket are included, providing flexibility when positioning the antenna as part of a wireless network installation.
Weatherproof RF connectors are also supplied to help maintain a protected outdoor connection. Correct alignment of the dish is important when installing a directional antenna, particularly for longer-distance point-to-point links.
