Compact 60 GHz Subscriber Station with 2 Gbps Throughput, 5 km Range, and 5 GHz Backup Radio
The Ubiquiti Wave Nano is a compact 60 GHz subscriber station delivering up to 2 Gbps throughput (1 Gbps full-duplex) at distances up to 5 km from a Wave AP base station. A built-in 5 GHz backup radio maintains connectivity during rain fade, and Bluetooth enables quick setup via the UISP mobile app. At 2.05 lb in an aluminum and plastic housing, the Wave Nano balances range and antenna gain against compact size for mid-range UISP Wave subscriber deployments.
The Wave Nano sits between the Wave Pico (1.3 km, ultra-compact) and Wave-LR (8 km, large dish) in the subscriber lineup. It covers the majority of suburban and semi-rural deployment distances where 5 km of reach handles most subscriber locations within a sector. The smaller form factor compared to the Wave-LR simplifies residential installations where a large dish antenna would be impractical or aesthetically unacceptable.
Where the Wave Nano Fits
- Mid-range WISP subscribers where the subscriber location is 1-5 km from the Wave AP base station and the Wave Nano provides sufficient gain without the size of the Wave-LR
- Residential rooftop installations where the compact form factor and 2.05 lb weight simplify mounting on residential poles and eaves compared to larger CPE options
- Volume subscriber deployments where the balance of range, throughput, and compact size makes the Wave Nano the standard CPE for the majority of subscribers in a sector
What the Wave Nano Delivers
- 2 Gbps throughput, 1 Gbps full-duplex: Multi-gigabit 60 GHz connectivity at distances up to 5 km from the Wave AP base station. 4 km range to Wave AP Micro.
- 5 GHz backup radio: Automatic failover to 5 GHz maintains subscriber connectivity during rain fade events that attenuate the 60 GHz primary link.
- Integrated GPS and Bluetooth: GPS for timing synchronization and link planning. Bluetooth enables field configuration via the UISP mobile app without a wired connection.
- Compact aluminum housing at 2.05 lb: Lightweight aluminum and plastic construction at 4.5 inches height. Router mode support for direct subscriber connection.
- Gigabit Ethernet, PoE powered: Single GbE port connects to the subscriber's router or switch. Powered via included 48V PoE adapter.
