Overview
Ubiquiti airMAX NanoStation M5 Loco Access Point – International Version (LOCOM5)
The Ubiquiti airMAX NanoStation M5 Loco (LOCOM5) is an internationally certified compact and cost-effective wireless CPE solution designed for long-range point-to-point and point-to-multipoint 5 GHz deployments. Featuring 2x2 MIMO performance, built-in 13 dBi antenna, and passive PoE support, it’s ideal for wireless service providers, surveillance applications, and outdoor hotspot bridging across global markets.
Global 5 GHz Frequency Compatibility
This international version of the LOCOM5 supports wide 5 GHz frequency ranges, including DFS bands (5170–5875 MHz), meeting global regulatory requirements. It provides reliable, interference-resistant connectivity ideal for international wireless ISPs and enterprise networks.
airMAX TDMA Technology for Maximum Efficiency
Utilizing Ubiquiti’s airMAX protocol with TDMA (Time Division Multiple Access), the LOCOM5 reduces latency, eliminates hidden node collisions, and improves scalability in high-density environments. Each client is assigned a time slot, ensuring better performance than legacy Wi-Fi protocols.
High-Gain Antenna with Long-Range Coverage
The integrated 13 dBi dual-polarity antenna delivers stable signal transmission for distances up to 10+ km in ideal conditions. Dual-linear polarization ensures better signal integrity in noisy RF environments, improving connectivity for both PtP and PtMP links.
Simple and Efficient PoE Installation
With support for 24V passive PoE and a PoE injector included in the box, the LOCOM5 can be powered using a single Ethernet cable. Its low power draw (5.5W max) allows for energy-efficient operation, and the single-port design makes cable management clean and easy.
Compact, Weather-Resistant Build
Housed in a UV-stabilized plastic enclosure, the LOCOM5 is engineered to withstand harsh outdoor environments. Its lightweight, pole-mountable form factor enables discreet installation without sacrificing performance.
Multiple Operation Modes
The device supports Access Point, Client, and WDS modes, offering flexibility for wireless bridging, distribution, or edge connectivity. Managed through Ubiquiti’s intuitive airOS interface, configuration and monitoring are streamlined and user-friendly.
