Advanced RF analytics
This airMAX ac device features a multi-radio architecture to power a revolutionary RF analytics engine. An independent processor on the PCBA powers a second, dedicated radio, which persistently analyses the full 2.4 GHz spectrum and every received symbol to provide you with the most advanced RF analytics in the industry.

Real-time reporting
airOS 8 displays the following RF information
Persistent RF Error Vector Magnitude (EVM) constellation diagrams
Signal, Noise, and Interference (SNI) diagrams
Carrier to Interference-plus-Noise Ratio (CINR) histograms

Spectral analysis
airView allows you to identify noise signatures and plan your networks to minimise noise interference. airView performs the following functions
Constantly monitors environmental noise
Collects energy data points in real-time spectral views
Helps optimise channel selection, network design, and wireless performance
airView runs in the background without disabling the wireless link, so there is no disruption to the network. In airView, there are three spectral views, each of which represents different data: waveform, waterfall, and ambient noise level. airView provides powerful spectrum analyser functionality, eliminating the need to rent or purchase additional equipment for conducting site surveys.

UNMS app
The Rocket 2AC Prism integrates a separate WiFi radio for fast and easy setup using your mobile device. The UNMS app provides instant accessibility to the airOS configuration interface and can be downloaded from the App Store (iOS) or Google Play (Android). UNMS allows you to set up, configure, and manage the Rocket 2AC Prism and offers various configuration options once you’re connected or logged in.

airMAX ac
Unlike standard WiFi protocol, Ubiquiti’s Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) airMAX ac protocol allows each client to send and receive data using pre-designated time slots scheduled by an intelligent AP controller. This time slot method eliminates hidden node collisions and maximises airtime efficiency, so airMAX ac technology provides performance improvements in latency, noise immunity, scalability, and throughput compared to other outdoor systems in its class.

Intelligent QoS
Priority assigned to voice/video for seamless streaming.
Scalability
High capacity and scalability.
Long Distance
Capable of high-speed, carrier-class links

Superior performance
The next-generation airMAX ac technology boosts the advantages of the proprietary TDMA protocol. Ubiquiti’s airMAX engine with custom IC dramatically improves TDMA latency and network scalability. The custom silicon provides hardware acceleration capabilities to the airMAX scheduler, to support the high data rates and dense modulation used in airMAX ac technology.

Throughput breakthrough
airMAX ac supports high data rates, which require dense modulation: 256QAM – a significant increase from 64QAM, which is used in airMAX. With the use of proprietary airMAX ac technology, this airMAX ac product supports up to 330+ Mbps (maximum 40 MHz channel width) real TCP/IP throughput – up to triple the throughput of standard airMAX products.

airPRISM
To enhance airMAX ac performance, Ubiquiti Networks introduced the patented airPrism technology, which is featured in the Rocket 2AC Prism.

Improves SNR
High data rates require a high Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR), which is challenging to achieve, especially in noisy, high-density areas. Integrated into Ubiquiti’s custom silicon, airPrism technology creates a high SNR by isolating signals within the operating channel and rejecting interference using specialised circuitry, the High-Selectivity Receiver (HSR).

Removes interference
Depending on the operating mode, available channel widths may include 10, 20, or 40 MHz. Theoretically APs operate on different channels; however, because of the wider channel bandwidths, there can be overlap in spectrum usage. airPrism technology removes up to an additional 30+ dB of adjacent channel interference through the active filtering design, so the Ubiquiti R2AC-PRISM AP with airPrism technology can provide significantly greater performance than a typical AP.

Facilitates AP co-location
Co-location is vital in many scenarios. For example, a WISP may have limited tower space, so it must co-locate all APs within that allotted footprint. Shielding and other means can lessen interference but may be impractical. By deploying Ubiquiti R2AC-PRISM APs with airPrism technology, you can co-locate APs and enhance the overall performance of your wireless network.
