Overview
The Ubiquiti HORN-5-60 is a 5 GHz horn antenna designed for compatible Ubiquiti wireless radios. It provides a 60° horizontal and vertical beamwidth with 16 dBi gain, making it suitable for sectorized point-to-multipoint wireless deployments requiring controlled coverage.
RF Performance
The HORN-5-60 operates across 5.15–5.85 GHz and uses dual-linear polarization. It provides 60° HPOL and VPOL beamwidth with a 30° elevation beamwidth. Ubiquiti specifies 17 dB cross-polarization isolation and a maximum VSWR of 2:1.
Radio Compatibility
The HORN-5-60 is designed for use with compatible Ubiquiti IsoStation, PrismStation, and airFiber AF-LTU radios. Verify the exact radio model and mounting interface before deployment.
Outdoor Deployment
The antenna is specified for wind survivability up to 200 km/h (125 mph). Ubiquiti lists wind loading of 50 N at 200 km/h (11.2 lbf at 125 mph), supporting outdoor fixed wireless infrastructure when properly mounted.
