Ubiquiti RP-5AC-Gen2 5GHz Rocket Prism AC WPA2-AES PoE Network Bridge White

Tired of unreliable point-to-point links that drop during peak traffic? The Ubiquiti RP-5AC-Gen2 gives you a rock-solid 5 GHz bridge that stays online, even in crowded spectrum. Set it up in minutes and keep your network moving.

Ubiquiti RP-5AC-Gen2 5GHz Rocket Prism AC WPA2-AES PoE Network Bridge White

Ubiquiti's Rocket Prism AC model combines a dedicated Wi-Fi management radio with the high-performance 5 GHz airPrism chipset. AirPrism technology isolates your channel, boosting capacity when many devices share the same band. The metal housing shields EMI, while built-in GPS sync delivers carrier-class throughput that is up to 90 % higher than competing bridges. WPA2-AES encryption protects every packet, and PoE support means you only need a single cable for power and data. With a single RP-SMA connector you can attach the antenna that best fits your line-of-sight distance, from short indoor hops to long outdoor spans.

Ubiquiti's unit ships in a clean white enclosure that blends with any rooftop or pole mount. Inside, a 128 MB memory module and a dedicated processor handle QoS, VLAN tagging and DHCP client duties without slowing your traffic. Three LED indicators show LAN, power and signal strength at a glance, so you can diagnose issues instantly. Certified for FCC, IC and CE, the bridge operates from -40 °C to 80 °C and tolerates 95 % humidity, making it ideal for harsh outdoor environments. Included software tools such as the Antenna Alignment Tool and Site Survey utility guide you through precise alignment for maximum link reliability.
Managing the bridge is intuitive thanks to the separate Wi-Fi radio that hosts a mobile-friendly web UI. From any smartphone you can run a site survey, adjust power levels, or switch channels without pulling a laptop. The device also supports VLAN tagging, allowing you to segment traffic for security or performance reasons. With Ethernet speeds up to 1 Gbps, you can transport high-definition video streams or large data backups across the link without bottlenecks.

Benefits

You get a network bridge that delivers consistent high-speed throughput while protecting your data with WPA2-AES. GPS synchronization means faster deployment and easier scaling for large site-to-site networks. The rugged design and wide temperature range keep the link alive through storms, heat waves and cold snaps, reducing maintenance trips and downtime.
Because PoE eliminates extra wiring, installation costs drop and you can place the bridge wherever the line-of-sight is clear, without worrying about power outlets.

Features

• 5 GHz airPrism chipset
• Integrated Wi-Fi management radio
• GPS synchronization for carrier-class throughput
• WPA2-AES encryption
• Power over Ethernet (PoE) support
• EMI-shielded metal housing

Usage

Deploy the RP-5AC-Gen2 as a point-to-point bridge between two buildings, or as a backhaul for a wireless ISP network. Align the antennas using the bundled Antenna Alignment Tool, then verify spectrum health with the airView real-time analyzer. The device’s QoS and VLAN support let you prioritize voice, video or critical data streams, while the built-in DHCP client simplifies network integration. Once powered via PoE, the bridge runs silently and requires minimal ongoing maintenance.
