Ubiquiti RD-5G31-AC | airMAX RocketDish AC

A 5 GHz high-gain dish antenna designed to extend the range of compatible 5 GHz Rocket radios over long fixed wireless links.

Why this one

• The 31 dBi gain figure places this at the higher end of the RocketDish AC range, which is what makes it the right choice when a link needs to cover a long point-to-point span rather than a shorter hop.
• Designed specifically to pair with 5 GHz Rocket radios, so the mechanical and RF interface is a known fit rather than an improvised one.
• The dish form factor focuses energy into a tight beam, which reduces interference from signals off the main path — useful on congested or difficult corridors.

Good fit if you're running a 5 GHz Rocket radio and need a high-gain dish for a long-range point-to-point link where a lower-gain antenna won't reach.

Worth considering something else if your link is shorter or you need broader coverage — the RD-5G30-LW is another RocketDish option in the catalogue and may suit if mounting weight or budget is a factor, though you should confirm the gain and mechanical fit against your Rocket model before choosing.

What you'll also need

A compatible 5 GHz Rocket radio — this antenna is the dish only — plus mounting hardware suited to your pole or tower, and outdoor-rated shielded Cat5e or better to the radio if it's mounted at the dish.
