Product Description
Ubiquiti airFiber 24 (AF-24)
Carrier-Class 24 GHz Point-to-Point Gigabit Radio
The Ubiquiti airFiber 24 (AF-24) is a carrier-grade point-to-point wireless radio engineered to deliver fiber-like Gigabit performance over long distances. Operating in the 24 GHz licensed/unlicensed band, it provides exceptional throughput, ultra-low latency, and rock-solid reliability—making it ideal for ISP backhaul, enterprise inter-building links, and mission-critical network connections.
With support for GPS synchronization, advanced RF status monitoring, and an integrated high-gain split antenna, the AF-24 ensures stable performance even in demanding RF environments. Its rugged outdoor design and comprehensive LED indicators allow precise alignment and real-time link diagnostics during deployment and operation.
