Ubiquiti RocketDish RD-5G34 5GHz 34dBi High-Gain Directional Antenna (RD-5G-34)

The Ubiquiti RocketDish RD-5G34 (RD-5G-34) is a professional-grade 5 GHz directional antenna designed for high-capacity, long-range wireless networking applications. Engineered for seamless integration with Ubiquiti’s Rocket radios, this dual-polarized parabolic dish antenna delivers exceptional 34 dBi gain and robust signal performance. Ideal for point-to-point (PtP) and point-to-multipoint (PtMP) deployments, the RD-5G34 ensures efficient, focused coverage even across extended distances. Built to withstand challenging outdoor environments, the RocketDish features weatherproof RF connectors, rugged construction, and strong wind resistance. Its narrow beamwidth and high front-to-back ratio reduce signal interference, making it a reliable choice for long-distance backhaul links and high-performance wireless networks.
