Overview

Introducing the Ubiquiti LiteBeam M5, a robust 5GHz outdoor CPE that provides high speed, long range connectivity, and scalable wireless bridge solutions for your WISP.

In the continuously growing environment of digital infrastructure, the enterprises and the service providers need reliable long distance wireless links without bearing the excessive cost of fiber rollouts. airMax LiteBeam M5 (LBE-M5-23) is the proven 5GHz outdoor wireless device designed for the point to point (PtP) and point to multiple points (PtMP) applications.

Developed by Ubiquiti, it transmits focused signal power and has more interference resistance and reliability factor for demanding professional deployment in Pakistan.

What is airMax LiteBeam M5 (LBE-M5-23)?

LiteBeam M5 is a lightweight outdoor wireless CPE device operating at 5GHz with a formidable 23dBi direction antenna and Ubiquiti own airMAX TDMA technology. It also focuses its signal into a narrow beam rather than radiating in all directions like the common WiFi modem/router and thus increases its range and reduces interference that make it an ideal outdoor long distance link device.

Why go for LiteBeam M5?

1. Long Range Performance

The 23dBi high gain WiFi antenna is enough to have reliable connectivity over many kilometers between two buildings while still being in the clear line of sight. This benefits the following:

  • Building to building connectivity
  • Campus Networking
  • Industrial sites linking
  • CCTV transmission backhaul

2. 5GHz for Less Interference

Pakistan like many other countries has more crowded 2.4GHz frequencies and therefore moving to the 5GHz band can give us clearer signals with greater throughput and stable operation.

3. airMAX TDMA Technology

Most of the consumer WiFi devices have to fight each other for airtime thus delay occurs in the busiest wireless network due to collisions. For this reason, LiteBeam uses the TDMA technology which organizes the communication into scheduled time slots.

This results in very low latency, greater efficiency & multi-user effectiveness along with stable throughput. In the end, this is the key feature that makes ISPs opt for airMAX series devices.

Business Benefits

Business Need LiteBeam Advantage
High cost of fiber Affordable wireless alternative

Common Uses in Pakistan

Various businesses are leveraging the airMax LiteBeam M5 in:

  • Wireless ISP networks
  • Educational institutions
  • Corporate branches
  • Housing schemes
  • Industrial complexes
  • Rural Broadband projects

Thanks to its weatherproof exterior, it can be used even in a tough outdoor environment.

Installation

Deployment can be quickly done by:

  • Mounting on pole or tower
  • Pointing/sighting toward the other end
  • Connecting with PoE power injector
  • Configuring through web based airOS

Getting the microwave link in the narrow direction needs proper alignment management. Once this is achieved, then no more regular approach is required.

Security & Configuration

The device supports WPA2 encryption type for wireless security and through airOS administration interface, the network operators can get during the operation:

  • Signal strength
  • Device health
  • Bandwidth utilization
  • Link quality and have full management over it

Trusted Distributor in Pakistan

Getting the trusted wireless solution from reliable networking solutions provider in Pakistan ensures:

  • Genuine Ubiquiti hardware
  • Technical support
  • Warranty and after sale services
  • Deployment guidance

The Final notes

The best long range outdoor wireless bridge in the realm of 5GHz spectrum, the LiteBeam M5 (LBE-M5-23) remains a top choice for reliable long-distance wireless links with its patent simplicity & reliability. When you need to go outside at an affordable cost than fiber, this directional WiFi device is a smart choice to be used.
