Overview Chapter 1: Overview Hardware Overview Introduction Thank you for purchasing the Ubiquiti Networks® airFiber® X Carrier Backhaul Radio. This User Guide is for use with the following models: Model Description AF-2X 2.4 GHz Carrier Backhaul Radio 2400 - 2500 MHz AF-3X 3 GHz Carrier Backhaul Radio 3300 - 3900 MHz AF-5X 5 GHz Carrier Backhaul Radio 5150 - 5925 MHz Chain 0: Connects to +45° on airFiber Antenna Connects to External GPS Antenna Chain 1: Connects to -45° on airFiber Antenna Operating Frequency* * Depends on Regulatory Region. Refer to “Specifications” on page 37 for more information. This User Guide provides installation instructions, explains how to set up an airFiber link, and shows how to access and use the airFiber Configuration Interface. Note: Throughout this User Guide, airFiber X radio refers to all models listed above. Unless noted otherwise, illustrations for a specific model are applicable to all airFiber X radio models and accessories. Package Contents LED Panel airFiber AF-2X, AF-3X, or AF‑5X GPS Antenna Mount External GPS Antenna Metal Strap LINK GPS MGMT DATA 5 GHz Carrier Backhaul Radio Model: AF-5X Cable Ties (Qty. 2) airFiber PoE (24V, 1A) with Mounting Bracket Power Cord DATA MGMT GPS LINK Quick Start Guide TERMS OF USE: Ubiquiti radio devices must be professionally installed. Shielded Ethernet cable and earth grounding must be used as conditions of product warranty. TOUGHCable™ is designed for outdoor installations. It is the customer’s responsibility to follow local country regulations, including operation within legal frequency channels, output power, and Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS) requirements. Port Cover airFiber Configuration Interface System Requirements • Microsoft Windows 7, Windows 8; Linux; or Mac OS X • Java Runtime Environment 1.6 (or above) • Web Browser: Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Google Chrome, or Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 (or above) Ubiquiti Networks, Inc. Chapter 1: Overview airFiber® X User Guide Ports Signal Level Once fully booted, the Signal 1-4 LEDs act as a bar graph showing how close the airFiber X radio is to ideal aiming. This is auto-scaled based on the link range, the antenna gains, and the configured TX power of the remote airFiber X radio. Each Signal LED has three possible states: On, Flashing, and Off. All Signal LEDs would be solidly on in an ideal link. If the link has a 1 dB loss, the Signal 4 LED will flash; a 2 dB loss and the Signal 4 LED will turn off. The full bar graph LED states are shown below. dB loss Management Port Reset Button Data Port Management Port 10/100 Mbps, secured Ethernet port for configuration. In-Band Management is enabled by default in the airFiber Configuration Interface. When In‑Band Management is disabled, the MGMT port is the only port that can monitor, configure, and/or update firmware. -1 -2 -3 -4 -5 -6 -7 -8 -9 -10 -11 -12 -13 0 = Off, 1 = On, F = Flashing Additional LEDs LED LINK Reset Button To reset to factory defaults, press and hold the Reset button for more than 10 seconds while the device is already powered on.

Status Off RF Off Short Flash* Syncing Normal Flash* Beaconing Long Flash* Registering On Operational Off No GPS Synchronization Normal Flash* Non-Operational (Weak Signal) LEDs On Operational (Strong Signal) Signal LEDs Off No Ethernet Link On Ethernet Link Established Signal 3 LED will light green when on. Random Flashing Ethernet Activity Signal 2 LED will light yellow when on. Off No Ethernet Link On Ethernet Link Established Random Flashing Ethernet Activity Off No Power On Powered On Signal 4 LED will light blue when on. Signal 1 LED will light red when on. Bootup to airOS When powering on, the Power, GPS, LINK, and Signal 1-4 LEDs light on. Once the CPU code takes over, the GPS, LINK, and Signal 1-3 LEDs turn off. Signal 4 LED remains on to indicate the boot sequence is underway. Initializing airFiber Software When the airFiber application begins to boot under airOS, the Signal 4 LED goes from solidly on to a 2.5 Hz flash. This continues until the airFiber X radio is fully booted.

Lift the release latch on the bottom of the airFiber X radio and slide the Port Cover off. The airFiber radio operates only with the antennas listed below. airFiber Radio airFiber X Antenna RocketDish + Conversion Kit AF-2X AF-2G24-S45 n/a AF-3X AF-3G26-S45 n/a AF-5X AF-5G23-S45 AF-5G30-S45 AF-5G34-S45 RD-5G30 + AF-5G-OMT-S45 RD-5G34 + AF-5G-OMT-S45 See the antenna’s Quick Start Guide for antenna installation instructions. Other Requirements 2. Connect an Ethernet cable to the DATA port. • Clear line of sight between airFiber X radios • Clear view of the sky for proper GPS operation • Vertical mounting orientation • Mounting point: • At least 1 m below the highest point on the structure • For tower installations, at least 3 m below the top of the tower • Ground wires – min. 10 AWG (5 mm2) and max. length: 1 m. As a safety precaution, ground the airFiber X radio to grounded masts, poles, towers, or grounding bars. WARNING: Failure to properly ground your airFiber X radio will void your warranty. • (Recommended) 2 Outdoor Gigabit PoE surge protectors Note: For guidelines about grounding and lightning protection, follow your local electrical regulatory codes. • Outdoor, shielded Category 6 (or above) cabling and shielded RJ-45 connectors are required for all wired Ethernet connections. Installation Overview 3. Connect the Ethernet cable from the DATA port to the Ethernet port labeled POE on the airFiber PoE Adapter. WARNING: Use only the included airFiber PoE adapter, Model: GP-H240-100G-4. Failure to do so can damage the unit and void the product warranty. We recommend to configure your paired airFiber X radios before site installation. The overview below summarizes the installation procedure, and the subsequent sections provide detailed installation information: • Connect the airFiber PoE Adapter to the DATA port, and connect your computer and the MGMT port. • Configure the airFiber X radio. • Install a ground wire and mount the airFiber X radio on an airFiber X antenna. • At the installation site, install the airFiber X antenna with the mounted airFiber X radio (see the antenna’s Quick Start Guide for installation instructions). • Secure the ground wire and mount the GPS antenna. • Establish and optimize the RF link. Ubiquiti Networks, Inc. Chapter 2: Installation 4. Connect the Power Cord to the power port on the airFiber PoE Adapter. Connect the other end of the Power Cord to a power source. airFiber Configuration The instructions in this section explain how to access the airFiber Configuration Interface and configure the following settings: • Wireless Mode Configure one airFiber X radio as the Master and the other as the Slave. • Frequency Setting The operating Frequency must be the same on both the Master and the Slave. 1. Connect an Ethernet cable from your computer to the MGMT port on the airFiber X radio. airFiber® X User Guide 4. The login screen will appear. Enter ubnt in the Username and Password fields. Select your Country and Language. You must agree to the Terms of Use to use the product. Click Login. Note: U.S. product versions are locked to the U.S. Country Code to ensure compliance with FCC regulations. 5. The Main tab will appear. Click the Tools drop-down and select Link Calculator. This tool will guide you on how to best minimize bandwidth and power/ interference issues. 6. Enter the requirements of your link, and then click Calculate. Adjust the values as needed to get the optimal result, and then write down the settings needed for your configuration. 7. Click the Wireless tab. 8. Configure the Basic Wireless Settings: 2. Configure the Ethernet adapter on your computer with a static IP address on the 192.168.1.x subnet. a. For one airFiber X radio, select Master as the Wireless Mode. For the other airFiber X radio, keep the default, Slave. 3. Launch your web browser. Type http://192.168.1.20 in the address field and press enter (PC) or return (Mac). b. Enter a name in the Link Name field. This should be the same on both the Master and the Slave. c. If needed, change the Channel Bandwidth, (Master) Duty Cycle, Output Power and/or Maximum Modulation Rate settings. 9. Configure the Frequency Settings. The selected Frequency must be the same on both airFiber X radios. Ubiquiti Networks, Inc.
