I have two of these that I'm going to get up and running as soon as I have time. Love the video!

@WarrenJason 6 лет назад

I just took delivery of these units. Your review will sabe me time and help me a lot. Thanks!

@techjeff6227 6 лет назад

I've been meaning to check these out for a while! Thanks for the review!

@gexgeko6520 4 года назад

Thanks for the video good job. I was hoping when you were showing the alignment tool that you physically turned the mic boom.

@andyboy13 4 года назад

Have a pair of these linking two of our top stations at work tem-permanently... They work great, we got a pair of gen 2's. They're indoors through 2 windows with moving carriers passing through the line of sight, and yet our VoIP phones are working just fine. Not ideal of course, but we had lightning blow up ( seriously, weld spatter on the metal enclosure) the buried cat 6 that someone decided to trench 8 years ago over fiber... Work great in sub optimal conditions, poor line of sight, 100+km/h blizzards going strong for 8 months now.

P.S. There is a "new" version of the nanobeam gen2 that has 2 ethernet ports. Produced after november 2017.

@RogerDiotte 4 года назад

Yea that's very important to know as I'm hesitating to buy any of these cause I WANT the new version that has the POE Passthrough on the device! This guy posted his video in 2018 so he received an old version ugh.

@evanlampros1965 3 года назад

Great video thanks Question can use this point to point as access points for outside use and are they effective

@kalamelliel 3 года назад

Thank you for the great videos. What’s the best equipments to use to transmit internet for a little over 1 mile away with mostly clear line of site, with few high trees in the way.

@philipcook7608 6 лет назад

I've been using two of these since beta, so about a year, to get internet out to the garage. Had one brick randomly, but Ubiquiti took care of the replacement. Not sure how you got your signal down to 40 dBm. Mine are ~20 feet apart and screaming at 30 dBm with everything turned down as low as it goes.

@DiyDadFL 6 лет назад

These things are amazing. I use them for internet from my house to my office. Mine's at about 2 miles apart.

@cdoublejj 4 года назад

what kind of speeds between the the units?

@thecrew8612 Год назад

Nice! Planning on doing the same. What speeds are you getting?

@matthewbennett2844 3 года назад

Could you use these as a separate network, say for instance using an Edgerouter x as a router and physically separating network and firewall rules to segment away from other networks?

@BillSands2112 9 месяцев назад

Thanks for the video very informative

@Red1Wollip 6 лет назад

Would you get the same results in a four-unit Bridge that goes from one building to one building then to another building?

@MrPaulyoutoobing 2 года назад

I did not hear you mention the surge arrestors - do you often use 2 per side? 1 on the mast and 1 at the entry to the building?

@muchappreciated4653 6 лет назад

Super curious to the latency and especially jitter of the Gen 2.

@TheJensss 6 лет назад

Nice video! Keep up the good work! :D I have some questions to you because I want to setup a wireless radio link over a distance of 2.2km The problem is that there are 5-10 treetops between the two antennas. I am looking for the highest possible bandwidth on the link, but the most important thing is that it is stable and will work all the time. The mast the equipment are going to be installed on is around 20m high; therefore, low wind load is important. The two options I have found to be most suitable are: Ubiquiti NanoStation M2 2.4GHz or Ubiquiti NanoBeam AC GEN2. What do you think about it? Therefore, my question is really which antenna should I choose. As I see it, Ubiquiti NanoBeam AC GEN2 (5GHz) will have far better performance if it works with 5-10 tree peaks in between. Ubiquiti NanoStation M2 2.4GHz will probably work regardless of due to lower frequency, but at lower speed. Alternatively, is there any other alternatives I should take a look at? As the situation is now I don’t have internet access to my house….

@Schnickalodeon 4 года назад

Do I have to buy 2 or does IT work with a FritzBox (Router) as Transmitter and the NanoBeam as Reciever?

@RogerDiotte 3 года назад

I just installed these yesterday, one on my barn (STation) and one on my house (Remote). I had to mount my Starlink Internet Dish on my barn as it has zero obstructions so it is my main location for the internet with the router installed in my tack room. These Ubiquiti units are now streaming my network and internet to my house on the 60Mhz setting at a 420Mbps link! I'm seeing a theoretical connection of about 250Mbps sustained easily! These sure did meet my expectations! My distance is buggy LOL..it's showing 0.00 inches or millimeters...whatever.

@flyingblogger280 3 года назад

How much wildlife are you killing with this? You know they are not your usual 4 watt router. You are probably frying yourself, too. The only difference is that you deserve it. Too bad about any animals in the barn. Maybe you should get an emf meter and take a look. But that Starlink maybe will not be readable. I think they are probably frying your with 12 GHz or so. Fool.

@justinkinsey5517 2 года назад

Great video Tom, you mention documentation, what configuration information do you document

@justinkinsey5517 2 года назад

Added, outside of IP address, username and password, do you mean like which one is in which mode, just wondering I am setting these up for a client.

@RogerDiotte 4 года назад

So you don't really need the wall mount kit when you want to screw it in place as you noted here @ 3:15 I'm hoping it holds well. I'm bolting to vinyl siding and wood.

@paddypage 3 года назад

Could this be used to share internet between 2 different properties? one property is about 200m away however there is other houses and trees in way. Would I just need to purchase 2 identical units? Thanks

@marcomtzrocha2318 3 года назад

Hello, can I use these radios to remotely access from another computer at the other end to a remote device with a defined IP to its web server? regards

@chrisrjrose 5 лет назад

Great video. Do these support VLANs? I cannot find documentation to confirm this on the Ubiquiti web site. Thanks Tom keep up the great work!

@jalofanclub 5 лет назад

Yes they support VLANs. I haven't had the need to try it yet but I have seen the settings in the control panel for it.

@paullopez821 4 года назад

Do trees mess with the signal What are the biggest issues with these units. on a large farm. I live in an area that is around 90 plus degrees during the day and up to 105 during the day. Does heavy rain cause issues. or high winds all the time.

@ghk84 Год назад

can mobile devices connect to this access point or its for AirMax devices?

@accesser 6 лет назад

Thanks been thinking about getting some for Mum & Dad's farm to link some buildings

@LAWRENCESYSTEMS 6 лет назад

We have linked up a horse farm with these. :)

@flyingblogger280 3 года назад

Do you have any idea how much power this puts out and how that will effect the physical and mental health of Mum and Dad and the animals and wildlife at the farm?

@djfade1599 5 лет назад

Will it go through trees about half a mile

@TestyRoznychRzeczy 15 дней назад

I have these on 300meter link and can do max 210Mbps what do I do wrong. Must be the alignment for this perfect on such short range? I remember I set it on eye started with 40Mhz channel width and low power. Finished with high power and 80Mhz channel. My results are not very bad but I expected to reach 300-400mbps I see it is possible. But how? Many people struggle with speeds lower than me.

@Zaandy 3 года назад

I've had nothing but trouble with these.

@buzybill 3 года назад

Would this work though some trees? About 10 trees, has line of sight during winter when leaves fall, but not during summer.

@techmaster170 3 года назад

It possibly could, but dont know how strong the signal would be. If you have to pass through some trees. I'd try looking into one that uses a lower frequency range. 5Ghz radio doesn't do a very good job at passing through objects. 2.4Ghz does an even better job at passing through objects. And if you are not looking for the absolute fastest speed, you can get these devices that operate in the 900Mhz range which will pass through objects rather well. I watched a video earlier where a guy used some that were 900Mhz and it was going through a bunch of trees and passing through his house as a test.

@muchappreciated4653 6 лет назад

Locking the MAC address is basically useless as it's trivial to sniff and spoof. In fact given the additional inconvenience, I'd say it's a net negative

@zparihar 2 года назад

What's the process of setting them up Site to Site - in terms of making sure that they are facing each other accurately? I'd imagine that would be the most difficult part. How does that work? Does it auto adjust?

@dannygarden2292 Год назад

There is an app.

@CodyPexton1 2 года назад

Great video! Would you be able to tell me why I cannot power the Nonobeam using my PoE+ switch (Linksys LGS116p)? It has an 80W power budget. The Nanobeam doesn't turn on unless I use the adapter.

@LAWRENCESYSTEMS 2 года назад

My guess would be that the Linksys has the wrong type of POE protocol.

@Red1Wollip 6 лет назад

How would this work in a city location with a narrow line of site point to point?

@cdoublejj 6 лет назад

with 8-16 cameras @ 1080 - 1440p and wifi wouldn't it be easy to saturate 450mbps? are there more robust or 10g options?

@LAWRENCESYSTEMS 6 лет назад

If it required over 450 for 1080, nextflix would not work, a 1080 camera at max frame uses about 8 Mbps

@a9503128 6 лет назад

Maybe forgot to carry the 00’s in your estimate, 8-16 so I’ll split that at 11 cameras all streaming H.264 25fps 1080p is circa 44’000kbps / 44Mbps

@cdoublejj 6 лет назад

wow they compress that much!? i guess 1440P would be all that much more then even if it was triple, wow. that's some serious compression/efficiency!

@a9503128 6 лет назад

cdoublejj these things have tiny CPUs in them that run at clock speeds you couldn’t only a few years ago on only 24v PoE. The h.264 codec is now in reach.

@fly4fun24 3 года назад

Do you have a video using RockeTAC and sector antennae transmitting and a nano 2n gen Receiving ? that is my setup pTmp but my bridge never get more than 300 m b And I see your with only nano stations both ends hiting 600+

@flyingblogger280 3 года назад

I suggest you get an EMF meter and take a look at what your are doing to yourself to get that speed. You know, these are not your usual 4 watt wi-fry router. Most people who know what they are, put them up over 100 feet.

@jasonklems8584 4 года назад

I have two building that are only about 50 to 75 feet apart. Will two of these work ?

@V2Kaskader 4 года назад

You have 2 options nanostation m5 (90mbps max ) or nanostation AC loco (same throughput as nanobeam but is cheaper for this distance )

@robertchong6313 4 года назад

Best to use an Access Point from Ubiquiti. The UAP AC LR, AC Pro, and Nano HD are good choices. They increase in price and capabilities respectively in that order.

@jamesw5836 6 лет назад

Can you plug an access point into the receiving end to broadcast the wifi to devices? Can the ap be managed through Unifi? I was thinking about an AP lite on the receiving end. Thanks

I have not tested, but probably.

@robertknoof1310 2 года назад

@@LAWRENCESYSTEMS Thanks for the reply, think I'll go ahead and buy two of them and try it out for myself. Worse case scenario I'll have to place them outside in some other temporary setup and mount it better in the spring when the snow and ice is gone. I'm not too worried about the window on the off grid building, but the one on the house may cause me problems. Will post results when they come in and it's set up.

Don't these now come with dual Ethernet ports?

@LAWRENCESYSTEMS 6 лет назад

@Flashpoint2 6 лет назад

Lawrence Systems / PC Pickup Thanks for the prompt feedback. I purchased a NBE-5AC-Gen2 directly from Ubiquiti and it arrived with two Ethernet ports as described in the datasheet at "dl.ubnt.com/datasheets/NanoBeam_ac/NanoBeam_AC_Gen2_DS.pdf". Maybe it's a different version of the NanoBeam 5AC Gen2 device as they do make frequent changes to the product. Thanks again.

@Anton-cv2ti 6 лет назад

I am also super confused about this. I need the dual ethernet ports, but the documentation says they're there, so im gonna go for it and hope that it does come with two :)

@Flashpoint2 6 лет назад

Anton Juul-Naber The product document makes reference to a dual Ethernet device while the Ubiquiti store shows pictures of a single port device. When I purchased my device there were pictures of the dual port devices in the Ubituiti store. It might be best to call and confirm before making a purchase.

@Anton-cv2ti 6 лет назад

FLASHPOINT Okay I will call to check. Thank you the heads up!

@justgivemethetruth 6 лет назад

Yes, definitely make your hats out of tin foil, not aluminum! ;-)

@flyingblogger280 3 года назад

What these people are not telling you is that these radios are for transmission lines and they have way more power that exposes you to excessive levels of radiofrequency/microwave radiation. Do not use these without getting an EMF meter to check your exposures. Wireless speed kills. Run the fiber.
