Ubiquiti BaseStation - 2.4 GHz airMAX, 128MB SDRAM, 8MB Flash, airOS 5, MIPS 74Kc CPU, 2401-2462MHz, White RocketM2 Rocket M2

Ubiquiti Rocket M2 BaseStation – 2.4 GHz airMAX (RocketM2)

The Rocket M2 BaseStation from Ubiquiti is a high-power 2.4 GHz airMAX base radio designed for Point-to-Point (PtP) and Point-to-MultiPoint (PtMP) outdoor wireless networks. Built around Ubiquiti’s proven airMAX TDMA technology, the Rocket M2 delivers up to 150+ Mbps real TCP/IP throughput with improved latency, scalability, and reliability compared to standard Wi-Fi solutions.

Its modular “mix-and-match” design allows seamless integration with airMAX sector, omni, dish, or Yagi antennas, making it an ideal choice for WISPs, campus networks, rural broadband, and outdoor backhaul deployments.

Key Features

• 2.4 GHz airMAX BaseStation radio

• Up to 150+ Mbps real TCP/IP throughput

• 2×2 MIMO with airMAX TDMA protocol

• High output power up to 27 dBm

• MIPS 74Kc processor with 128 MB SDRAM

• airOS® 5 operating system

• Plug-and-play integration with airMAX antennas

• Integrated airView® spectrum analyzer

• Centralized management via airControl®

Optimized for PtP & PtMP Networks

Operating in the 2402–2462 MHz unlicensed band, the Rocket M2 supports flexible channel widths and frequencies. While the 2.4 GHz band is widely compatible and long-reaching, airMAX TDMA scheduling minimizes hidden-node collisions and maximizes airtime efficiency—critical in crowded RF environments.

airMAX® TDMA Technology

Unlike standard Wi-Fi, airMAX TDMA assigns time slots to each client, delivering:

• Lower latency

• Higher throughput

• Better scalability

• Improved voice/video QoS

Advanced Software Tools

• airOS® 5 – Intuitive web UI with advanced wireless controls, link optimization, and diagnostics

• airView® – Real-time spectrum analyzer (waterfall, waveform, live RF views)

• airControl® – Centralized, web-based network management, monitoring, and firmware upgrades

Rugged & Flexible Design

The Rocket M2 enclosure is built for harsh outdoor conditions and snaps directly into any compatible airMAX antenna with a built-in Rocket mount—no special tools required.
