The airFiber AF-5XHD uses Ubiquiti’s airOS® LTU software, which offers you a variety of advanced features. Powerful New Features Version 1.1.2 offers many new features to help make your network faster, easier to operate, and more resistant to interference:

• Frequency Split Use this to configure separate TX and RX frequencies. This feature is very helpful in environments where certain channels may be experiencing interference on one end of the link, but are clear on the other end. The ability to configure different channels for each end of the link provides an ideal solution to this problem.
• 4096QAM (12x) Support The AF-5XHD has been the only product that allows WISPs to push links beyond 256QAM while delivering unmatched spectral efficiency. With the introduction of 4096QAM, WISPs will now be able to further increase link speeds simply by upgrading the software.
• Link Frequency Selector Found on the Wireless screen, this feature displays a graph of the link’s RF environment that includes a Best Frequency hint to help you select the clearest frequency.
• Seamless Frequency Changes The link is no longer dropped when frequency-related settings (Frequency, Split Frequency, Alternative Frequencies, Auto Frequency) are changed.
• Centralized Link Management This feature simplifies and speeds up link management. You now only have to manage the master device; changes made to it are automatically propagated to the remote device.
• Smart Assistant (Alerts) The new Smart Assistant monitors and alerts you of errors and warnings, such as a missing GPS signal, Ethernet negotiation failures, or a lower than expected signal strength. The Smart Assistant also provides detailed troubleshooting instructions for fixing each problem that it identifies.

 • Auto Frequency on DFS Event (Beta) When this option is enabled, the link automatically switches to the clearest operating frequency when a DFS event occurs.
