Ubiquiti LBE-5AC-XR-US Extreme Range 5ghz Wireless Bridge

Product Description

The UBIQUITI LBE-5AC-XR-US is a long-range 5 GHz wireless bridge designed for point-to-point links in demanding outdoor network installations. Built on Ubiquiti's AirMax platform, this unit is engineered to deliver stable throughput over extended distances, with a rated range exceeding 30 kilometers under suitable line-of-sight conditions. It is typically deployed by network technicians and low-voltage contractors working on building-to-building connectivity, campus backhauls, or remote site links where running physical cabling is not practical.

This unit is well suited for outdoor fixed wireless installations in both commercial and light industrial environments. Typical applications include connecting two buildings across a parking lot or open field, linking remote monitoring equipment to a central network, or extending network access to outbuildings. The 5 GHz band helps reduce interference from neighboring 2.4 GHz devices common in dense urban or suburban deployments.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed low-voltage contractors or network technicians familiar with outdoor wireless equipment. Mount the unit in a clear line-of-sight position and ensure the structure can support the antenna assembly under wind load before securing hardware. Power down or disconnect any associated networking equipment before making wired connections to the unit. Local codes and the National Electrical Code (NEC) may apply to outdoor electrical and low-voltage wiring methods used during installation.
