High-Gain 5 GHz Performance for Long-Range Links
The 25 dBi dish reflector focuses the signal into a narrow beam, reducing interference and increasing range. This makes the PBE-M5-400 ideal for clear-line-of-sight links where you need maximum reach without sacrificing throughput.
Weatherproof Design for Outdoor Deployment
Built with UV-resistant plastic and rated for -40 °C to +70 °C operation, this unit is suited to UK conditions year-round. The included pole mounting bracket allows secure installation on masts or walls, while the sealed electronics protect against dust and moisture.
Gigabit Ethernet with PoE Power
A single Gigabit Ethernet port supports Power over Ethernet, so both data and power run over one cable. This simplifies installation and reduces cabling costs for remote setups where mains power is not nearby.
