5 GHz 21 dBi 60° Sector Antenna

The Ubiquiti Networks AM-5AC21-60 is a dual-polarity 2x2 MIMO sector antenna operating in the 5.10 to 5.85 GHz frequency range. It delivers 21 dBi gain with 60-degree horizontal and vertical beamwidths. The unit is designed for airMAX ac BaseStation deployments and pairs with Rocket 5ac radios for optimal performance.

Tool-less Rocket Mount Integration

A built-in Rocket mount allows direct attachment of compatible Rocket BaseStation radios without tools. The carrier-class construction uses an innovative deflector design for outdoor durability. Reduced sidelobes and backlobes provide superior noise immunity in co-location environments. Electrical downtilt is fixed at 2 degrees with a 4-degree electrical beamwidth.

Verify Radio Compatibility and Frequency Licensing

Confirm the intended Rocket radio model; Rocket 5ac is required for full airMAX ac performance while RocketM5 is supported with reduced capability. Ensure the 5.10 to 5.85 GHz band is permitted for your deployment region. The antenna's 60-degree sector pattern suits wide-area coverage; narrower 45-degree needs are served by the separate AM-5AC22-45 model.

Questions about this item

How do I confirm the 21 dBi gain is performing correctly after mounting the AM-5AC21-60?

Verify signal strength on the connected Rocket radio; the 60 degree HPOL and VPOL beamwidths with 4 degree electrical beamwidth and 2 degree downtilt should deliver the specified 21 dBi gain across the 5.10 to 5.85 GHz range when aimed properly.

What comes in the box with the AM-5AC21-60 and what must I purchase separately?

The antenna includes a built-in Rocket mount for tool-free installation; a compatible Rocket 5ac or RocketM5 radio is required separately to complete the base station.

Should I choose the AM-5AC21-60 or the AM-5AC22-45 for my deployment?

Select the AM-5AC21-60 for 60 degree sector coverage with 21 dBi gain; choose the AM-5AC22-45 only if you need a narrower 45 degree beamwidth with 22 dBi gain instead.
