PS-5AC – Shielded airMAX ac Radio Base with airPrism Technology

launches the PrismStation(TM) 5AC, featuring airPrism technology and dedicated Wi-Fi management.

Improved Noise Immunity

The PrismStation 5AC directs RF energy in a tighter beamwidth using aninterchangeable isolation antenna horn, available in both symmetricaland asymmetrical designs. Compatible antennas* include the following:

• PrismAP-5-30
• PrismAP-5-45
• PrismAP-5-60
• PrismAP-5-90

With the focus in one direction, the PrismStation 5AC blocks or spatiallyfilters out noise, so noise immunity is improved. This feature isespecially important in an area crowded with other RF signals of thesame or similar frequency.

* Antennas not included with the PS-5AC.

Modular Design

With flexible sectorization for optional antenna beamwidths, the hornantenna is interchangeable and improves beamshaping for specificdeployment and environment needs. The PrismStation 5AC uses horn antenna sectors designed for increased colocation performance withoutsacrificing gain.

Providing high throughput and an innovative form factor, the PrismStation 5AC is versatile and costeffective to deploy. The PrismStation 5AC also utilizes the latest ESD protection to helpprotect against power surges.

ThePrismStation 5AC is compatible with 4 different isolation antennas (notincluded). Each antenna is designed with a precise radiation angle forspecific beam shaping, ranging from 30° to 90°, making them suitable for a wider range of installations.

• Asymmetrical horn antennas designed for increased co-location performance
• Available in 30°, 45°, 60°, and 90° angle designs
• All metal, shielded radio base
• Single button release for ease of changing antennas
• Newly designed horns for improved beam shaping

Hardware Overview

Using airMAX ac technology, the PrismStation 5AC supports up to 500+ Mbps real TCP/IP throughput.

The PrismStation 5AC comes with a mounting bracket that allows for 20°tilt adjustments of the horn’s elevation. This pole-mounting methodallows for easy adjustments depending on your deployment needs.
