Ubiquiti RD-5G30 Rocketdish 5 Ghz 30 Dbi Antenna

Product Description

The UBIQUITI RD-5G30 is a high-gain dish antenna engineered for long-range, point-to-point wireless links operating in the 5 GHz band. Rated at 30 dBi of antenna gain, it delivers a tightly focused signal path suited for bridging buildings, campuses, or remote sites where maximum range and signal strength are required. The RD-5G30 is designed to pair with compatible Ubiquiti airMAX radios, forming a complete outdoor wireless backhaul or distribution link. Installation is typically performed by network technicians or low-voltage communications contractors familiar with outdoor RF deployments.

The RD-5G30 is used in outdoor point-to-point and point-to-multipoint wireless deployments operating in the unlicensed 5 GHz spectrum. Typical applications include building-to-building backhaul, wireless ISP distribution links, and campus connectivity where running fiber or cable is not practical. The dish form factor and high gain rating make it well suited for links requiring tight beam control and interference rejection in congested RF environments.

Key Features

• 5 GHz band operation for high-throughput wireless links
• 30 dBi antenna gain for long-range, focused signal performance
• Dish form factor provides narrow beamwidth and improved interference rejection
• Designed to mount with compatible Ubiquiti airMAX radio units
• Sold as a single unit (EA)

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style outdoor dish antenna for use with compatible 5 GHz airMAX radio units in point-to-point wireless backhaul and distribution installations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage or network technician with experience in outdoor RF and antenna systems. Proper grounding of the antenna and associated cabling is required and should comply with applicable NEC grounding and bonding requirements for outdoor communications equipment. Align the dish carefully using a signal-level tool or software aid to achieve optimal link performance before final tightening of all mounting hardware. Power down associated radio equipment before making or breaking RF and power connections at the antenna.
