For a Point-to-Point (PtP) setup, you’ll need at least two NanoStation 5AC Loco units—one acting as the transmitter, sending data from its location, and the other as the receiver, capturing data at a remote location. This configuration is ideal for connecting two separate networks or extending internet access between buildings that lack physical wiring. In a Point-to-Multipoint (PtMP) setup, a single NanoStation 5AC Loco can function as a central access point, connecting multiple receiver devices over a broad area. This setup is frequently employed by internet service providers (ISPs) to distribute internet service to multiple clients or by large campuses to provide seamless network access across various buildings.
At the core of the NanoStation 5AC Loco is Ubiquiti’s airMAX engine with a custom IC, which significantly enhances TDMA latency and network scalability. The airMAX ac technology integrated into this device supports high data throughput of up to 450+ Mbps in real-world conditions, representing a major advancement in compact wireless broadband devices. Utilizing a Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) protocol, the NanoStation 5AC Loco efficiently communicates with multiple devices without interference, optimizing bandwidth usage and minimizing latency.
The device operates on the 5 GHz frequency band, offering access to cleaner channels with less interference compared to the more crowded 2.4 GHz band. This frequency selection, paired with advanced noise filtration and antenna gain control, ensures optimal performance even in areas with high radio congestion, making it an ideal solution for both urban and rural environments.
The NanoStation 5AC Loco is designed with an integrated antenna and radio within a sleek, compact form factor. The antenna features a 13 dBi gain optimized for directional transmission, which focuses energy in a specific direction to boost signal strength and minimize interference. This design makes the NanoStation 5AC Loco especially effective for establishing long-distance wireless links.
For connectivity, the device is equipped with a single Gigabit Ethernet port that supports 24V Passive PoE, enabling easy deployment and power supply through a single cable. This simplifies installation and reduces clutter, while the Ethernet port allows seamless integration with various network devices. This enables the NanoStation 5AC Loco to function as a bridge in larger network infrastructures or as an access point connecting multiple devices within a localized network.
The NanoStation 5AC Loco is built to last, with durable construction and a weather-resistant design that allows it to withstand harsh outdoor conditions, ensuring reliable operation over extended periods. This durability, combined with Ubiquiti’s versatile airOS firmware, gives network administrators access to advanced features for device configuration, signal monitoring, and network management. The airOS platform includes tools for real-time analytics, signal strength visualization, and device status monitoring, allowing for precise adjustments to achieve optimal performance.
Application Scenarios
The airMAX NanoStation 5AC Loco is an ideal solution for establishing cost-effective, long-distance wireless broadband links in remote or rural areas where traditional internet infrastructure is either unavailable or prohibitively expensive to deploy. For instance, consider a small community or a remote research facility that requires reliable internet access, but the nearest fiber connection or DSL service is located miles away, out of reach for conventional wiring solutions. By using two NanoStation 5AC Loco units in a Point-to-Point (PtP) configuration, you can create a direct wireless link between the community and the nearest internet backbone. This setup not only bridges the digital divide but does so with minimal environmental impact and at a fraction of the cost of laying physical cables. With high throughput of up to 450+ Mbps, the community or facility can enjoy broadband speeds that support streaming, online collaboration, and access to cloud resources, unlocking a wealth of educational, economic, and social opportunities.
In urban environments, the NanoStation 5AC Loco is equally effective for connecting multiple buildings within a business campus or educational institution without the need for intrusive and costly trenching. A Point-to-Multipoint (PtMP) network setup, where one unit acts as a central hub and multiple units are installed on different buildings, provides seamless network access across the entire area. This solution is ideal for campuses looking to extend their LAN to annexes without existing wired connectivity or for establishing dedicated links for security cameras and other IoT devices without overburdening the main network. The NanoStation 5AC Loco’s robust design and weather-resistant construction ensure reliable performance even in challenging urban conditions, making it a versatile and dependable choice for extending connectivity where it’s most needed.
