Overview
The Ubiquiti LTU-INSTANT-5-US is a 5 GHz LTU client designed for point-to-multipoint (PtMP) wireless deployments using an LTU Rocket as the base station. This 5-pack provides five LTU Instant client units for distributed customer-premises or remote-site connectivity.
Wireless Connectivity
LTU Instant operates across the 5.15–5.95 GHz range, subject to regional regulations, with a 22 dBi antenna and support for channel bandwidths from 10 MHz through 100 MHz on firmware version 2.3.0 and later. Ubiquiti specifies maximum throughput above 900 Mbps with applicable firmware.
Networking and Power
Each unit provides a Gigabit Ethernet RJ45 interface and uses passive 2-pair PoE. The included 24V, 0.5A Gigabit PoE adapter supplies power, with a supported DC input range of 22–27V and maximum power consumption of 9W.
Key Features
- 5 GHz LTU client for PtMP and supported PtP deployments
- 22 dBi integrated antenna
- Gigabit Ethernet RJ45 interface
- Up to 900+ Mbps maximum throughput with applicable firmware
- IPX6 weatherproofing and -40°C to 60°C operating temperature
Deployment Applications
LTU Instant is suited to wireless broadband access, distributed remote-site connectivity, and other outdoor fixed-wireless deployments where multiple client radios connect to an LTU Rocket base station.
DC Supplies Product Note
For deployment planning, verify the regulatory operating frequencies for the installation region and confirm the LTU Rocket base station is part of the wireless architecture. The included 24V passive PoE adapter should be used within the specified 22–27V DC operating range.
