airMAX Rocket Prism 5AC
Model: RP-5AC-Gen2
The Ubiquiti Rocket Prism 5AC Gen 2 (RP-5AC-Gen2) is an ultra-high-performance, professional-grade wireless base station radio operating in the 5 GHz frequency band. It is specifically engineered to deliver maximum spectral efficiency and uninterrupted performance in highly congested and noisy RF environments.
The device leverages Ubiquiti's exclusive airPrism active RF filtering technology alongside the advanced airMAX ac protocol, providing exceptional link stability and real-world throughput of up to 500+ Mbps. This second-generation model features a dedicated Wi-Fi management radio for instant setup via the UISP mobile app, GPS synchronization for scalable networks, and a rugged, EMI-shielded die-cast aluminum enclosure.
Designed to pair seamlessly with Ubiquiti's external antennas (Sector or RocketDish), it is the ultimate, heavy-duty solution for Wireless Internet Service Providers (WISPs) looking to deploy robust, long-range Point-to-Point (PtP) links or high-density Point-to-MultiPoint (PtMP) base stations.
