Ubiquiti WAVE-NANO UISP Wave Nano 60 GHz PtMP Station
Overview
The Ubiquiti WAVE-NANO is a UISP Wave 60 GHz point-to-multipoint station designed to connect as a client to compatible Wave access points. It combines a high-capacity 60 GHz radio with a 5 GHz Wi-Fi 6 backup radio and supports a total throughput of up to 2 Gbps.
The Wave Nano supports PtMP station operation and can be managed through UISP. Its integrated GPS, Bluetooth management, antenna alignment tools, and outdoor-rated enclosure support deployment in fixed wireless networking environments.
Wireless Technology
The primary radio operates across the 57–71 GHz range, depending on regulatory region, with 2160, 1080, and 540 MHz channel bandwidth options. The 60 GHz radio uses 16QAM and QPSK modulation and provides 41 dBi antenna gain.
A 5 GHz 802.11ax Wi-Fi 6 radio provides backup connectivity. The backup radio supports 20, 40, and 80 MHz channel bandwidths and provides 19 dBi antenna gain.
Performance
The WAVE-NANO provides up to 2 Gbps total throughput, with Ubiquiti specifying a maximum range of more than 5 km. Actual wireless performance and range depend on deployment conditions, regulatory requirements, alignment, environmental factors, and the paired Wave equipment.
Networking and Management
The station provides one Gigabit Ethernet RJ45 interface and supports bridge/router networking modes. UISP provides device management, monitoring, configuration, and network tools. Bluetooth management is available for setup through the UISP application.
Installation
The WAVE-NANO uses pole mounting and supports poles with an outer diameter from 25 to 63.5 mm. The enclosure is rated IPX6 for weather resistance and is designed for outdoor fixed wireless installations. The unit operates from -40°C to 60°C with 5–95% non-condensing humidity.
