The offered product is a set consisting of two Ubiquiti UBB-XG units, which are not sold separately. It allows for establishing a point-to-point (PTP) connection in the 60 GHz band at a maximum distance of 500 meters. The UBB-XG supports 802.11 ad/ay standards, and the connection throughput can reach up to 6 Gbps. The device is equipped with 1 Gigabit Ethernet port (10/100/1000 Mbps) and 1 SFP+ slot (10 Gbps), enabling the full utilization of the offered transmission speed. It is powered through PoE, with a maximum power consumption of 31.2 W, and two power supplies are included in the set.

The device is designed to operate under the control of the UniFi system and does not have a standalone mode; you can only manage it through the application. The main purpose of the UBB-XG is to connect two UniFi network segments using high-throughput wireless transmission. The package includes two mounts enabling precise tilt adjustment. During installation, the LED indicators are useful for indicating the quality of the current connection.

The UBB-XG is also equipped with a backup 5 GHz radio that takes over in the event of a main link failure. It uses the 802.11ac standard and offers a maximum throughput of 867 Mbps. The backup radio is particularly useful in locations where environmental conditions, such as heavy rain or snow, may affect the 60 GHz transmission.

UniFi network

The offered product operates under the UniFi software, which enables centralized management of multiple devices from a single application. It is primarily designed for building hotspot networks consisting of access points but also supports monitoring systems - the "Protect" series. With UniFi, you can build an extensive network and control it from one system. This allows for swift configuration changes, hotspot settings, and firmware updates. The UniFi application is completely free, available for download on computers and as a mobile application.

Correct, the UBB-XG can only operate under the control of the UniFi application and does not have a standalone mode.

60 GHz PTP connection, 6 Gb/s throughput, range up to 500 m

In the package, you will find 2 UBB-XG devices that will enable you to create a point-to-point wireless connection. PTP is the only supported operating mode. The transmission operates in the 60 GHz band, using 802.11ad/ay standards. The maximum theoretical throughput can reach up to 6 Gbps, with a range of 500 meters.

5 GHz backup radio

Inside the enclosure, there is an additional radio designed to operate in the 5 GHz band. It serves as a backup transmission, taking over in the event of a main link failure. It supports the 802.11ac protocol (Wi-Fi 5), with a maximum theoretical throughput of 866.6 Mbps.

The backup radio ensures continuous transmission even in very challenging weather conditions. It will prove useful wherever heavy rainfall and snowfall may potentially disrupt the 60 GHz connection.

Gigabit Ethernet port, SFP+ slot, PoE powering

UBB-XG is equipped with 1 Gigabit Ethernet port (10/100/1000 Mbps) and 1 SFP+ slot (1/10 Gbps). Utilizing the SFP+ interface will allow you to fully utilize the throughput offered by the 60 GHz transmission.

The Ethernet port serves as the Power over Ethernet (PoE) input. The device supports 48V voltage, with a maximum power consumption of 31.2W. The package includes power supplies suitable for the UBB-XG.

IPX6 ingress protection, precision mouting

In the package, you will find a mount that enables precise angle tilt adjustment. During installation, the LED indicators on the enclosure are useful, indicating the quality of the connection. The UBB-XG enclosure is fully adapted for outdoor use, with an IPX6 protection rating.

You can mount the device on a pole/mast with a diameter of Ø25.4-63.5 mm (Ø1-2.5"). Hex keys included in the package will suffice for adjustments.

Application

The primary use of UBB-XG is to wirelessly connect two locations using the UniFi network. Its high throughput ensures seamless operation even in networks with multiple access points.

With UBB-XG, you don't need to lay fiber optic cables, which can be challenging or even impossible in many locations. Using the 60 GHz band provides not only high throughput but also immunity to interference caused by other transmissions.
