Network bridge Ubiquiti UDB-Pro 866.7 Mbit/s 5 GHz 802.11ac

The Ubiquiti UDB-Pro 866.7 Mbit/s 5 GHz 802.11ac network bridge provides a dedicated high-speed wireless link for connecting two network segments over the 5 GHz band. Designed for point-to-point or point-to-multipoint deployments, the device supports the 802.11ac PHY to deliver up to 866.7 Mbit/s throughput under optimal conditions. Its compact white enclosure and industry-standard mounting options allow discreet installation on poles or walls, enabling extension of wired networks without additional cabling.

Advantages

The bridge offers high throughput on the 5 GHz band with reduced interference compared to crowded 2.4 GHz channels. Support for the 802.11ac standard increases spectral efficiency and modulation rates, improving real-world transfer speeds. The unit’s streamlined design and weather-resistant housing simplify outdoor placement, and integrated antennas provide stable directional connectivity. It supports standard network features for link management and monitoring, enabling reliable long-distance wireless connections.

Suitable for

• Connecting buildings or network segments where running fiber or copper is impractical
• Extending an existing LAN across a campus, warehouse, or industrial site
• Creating a dedicated backhaul for CCTV systems or remote access points
• Temporary network links for events or construction sites

Key specifications

• Wireless standard: 802.11ac (5 GHz)
• Maximum PHY data rate: up to 866.7 Mbit/s
• Operating frequency: 5 GHz band
• Form factor: outdoor-ready bridge with integrated antennas
• Mounting: pole and wall mount compatible
• Connectivity: Ethernet port for network integration and power over Ethernet support (if available)
• Environmental suitability: designed for outdoor deployment with weather-resistant enclosure

How to use

Install the bridge at both ends of the intended link with clear line of sight between devices. Mount units securely using the supplied or compatible brackets and align antennas toward each other for optimal signal. Connect the device to the local network using an Ethernet cable and configure the link via the device’s management interface, setting matching SSID, channel, and security parameters. Perform alignment and link tests, adjust orientation to maximize signal strength and throughput, and verify stable operation before finalizing installation.

Usage recommendations

Place the Ubiquiti UDB-Pro where there is an unobstructed line of sight and minimal nearby 5 GHz interference. Use a channel plan that avoids overlap with other local 5 GHz systems, enable appropriate security settings, and monitor signal metrics during commissioning. For critical links, consider professional alignment and periodic maintenance checks to ensure consistent performance.
