Installation Requirements
• 17 mm wrench
• 13 mm socket wrench or driver
• Clear line of sight between airFiber radios
• Clear view of the sky for proper GPS operation
• Mounting location with < 0.5° displacement due to twist and
sway under wind loading
• Mounting point:
• At least 1 meter below the highest point on the structure
• For tower installations, at least 3 meters below the top of the
tower
• Ground wires – min. 8 AWG (10 mm
2
) and max. length: 1 meter
As a safety precaution, ground the airFiber radios to grounded
masts, poles, towers, or grounding bars.
• (Recommended) 2 Outdoor GigE PoE surge protectors
Note: For guidelines about grounding and lightning
protection, follow your local electrical regulatory codes.
• Outdoor, shielded Category 5e (or above) cabling should be
used for all wired Ethernet connections. Category 6 is required
for installations with long cable runs (up to 100 m).
We recommend that you protect your networks from the
most brutal environments and devastating ESD attacks
with industrial-grade shielded Ethernet cable from Ubiquiti
Networks. For more details, visit www.ubnt.com/toughcable
Installation Overview
We recommend that you configure your paired airFiber radios
before mounting. Below is an overview of the installation with
specific details on the following pages:
• Connect Power over Ethernet to the DATA port, and connect an
Ethernet cable between your computer and the CONFIG port.
• Configure the device settings in the airFiber Configuration
Interface.
• Once configuration is complete, disconnect the cables to move
the airFiber radios.
7
Connecting Power over Ethernet
• Reconnect at the site.
• After you have mounted the airFiber radios, establish and
optimize the RF link.
Connecting Power over Ethernet
1. Press down on the indicator arrows and slide the Port Cover off.
2. Connect an Ethernet cable to the DATA port.
8

3. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable from the DATA
port to the Ethernet port labeled POE on the PoE Adapter.
4. Connect the Power Cord to the power port on the PoE Adapter.
Connect the other end of the Power Cord to a power source.

Configuration
The instructions in this section explain how to access the airFiber
Configuration Interface and configure the following settings:
• Wireless Mode Configure one airFiber AF24 as the Master and
the other as the Slave.
• Duplex The airFiber AF24 supports both half-duplex and
full-duplex operation. Half-duplex operation provides more
frequency planning options at the cost of higher latency
and throughput. Full-duplex operation provides the highest
throughput and lowest latency; however, you have fewer
frequency management options.
- Half Duplex (default) The TX and RX Frequencies can be the
same or different to suit local interference.

1. Connect an Ethernet cable from your computer to the CONFIG
port on the airFiber AF24.
2. Configure the Ethernet adapter on your computer with a
static IP address on the 192.168.1.x subnet (for example,
192.168.1.100).
3. Launch your Web browser. Type http://192.168.1.20 in the
address field and press enter (PC) or return (Mac).
4. The login screen will appear. Enter ubnt in the Username and
Password fields. Select your Country and Language. You must
agree to the Terms of Use to use the product. Click Login.
Note: U.S. product versions are locked to the U.S. Country
Code to ensure compliance with FCC regulations.

5. Click the Wireless tab.
6. Enter the Basic Wireless Settings:
a. For one airFiber AF24, select Master from the Wireless Mode
drop-down. For the other airFiber AF24, keep the default,
Slave.
b. Enter a name in the Link Name field. This should be the
same on both the Master and the Slave.
c. For the Duplex drop-down:
- Half Duplex The default mode. The TX and RX Frequencies
can be the same or different to suit local interference.
- Full Duplex The TX and RX Frequencies should be different.
d. Select a TX Frequency. This must match the RX Frequency on
your other airFiber AF24.
e. Select a RX Frequency. This must match the TX Frequency of
your other airFiber AF24.
f. If needed, change the Output Power, Maximum Modulation
Rate, and/or RX Gain settings.

7. Configure the Wireless Security:
a. Select the AES Key Type, HEX or ASCII.
b. For the Key field:
- HEX Enter 16 bytes (eight, 16-bit HEX values: 0-9, A-F, or
a-f). You can omit zeroes and use colons, similar to the
IPv6 format.
Note: The airFiber Configuration Interface supports
IPv6 formats excluding dotted quad and "::"
(double-colon) notation.
- ASCII Enter a combination of alphanumeric characters (0-9,
A-Z, or a-z).
8. Click Change and then click Apply.
9. By default, in-band management is disabled. To enable in-band
management:
a. Click the Network tab.
b. Check the box next to In-Band Management.
c. Change the IP Address, Netmask, and other settings to
make them compatible with your network.
Note: If In-Band Management is enabled, each airFiber
radio must have a unique IP Address. If the airFiber radios
use the same IP Address, then you may lose access to the
airFiber radios via the CONFIG and DATA ports.
d. Click Change and then click Apply.
Repeat the instructions in the airFiber Configuration section on
your other airFiber radio. After you have configured the airFiber
radios, disconnect them and move them to your installation site.

To install the airFiber AF24:
1. Insert the four M10x150 Carriage Bolts into the Pole Mount
Bracket.
2. Attach the Pole Mount Bracket to a pole.
a. Orient the Pole Mount Bracket around the pole so it is aimed
in the direction of the other airFiber AF24.
b. Insert the M10x150 Carriage Bolts into the Pole Clamps.
c. Secure the clamps with the M10 Flat Washers, Split Lock
Washers, and Hex Nuts.
Note orientation of slots
Aim towards link.

5. Lift the airFiber AF24 and align the four M8x14 Serrated Flange
Screws with the slots on the Pole Mount Bracket. Seat the screws
in the slots. Securely tighten the screws.
WARNING: To prevent injury, ensure that all four screws
are seated and fully tightened.

6. Attach a ground wire by performing the following steps:
a. Remove the nut from the Ground Bonding Point.
b. Attach a ground wire (min. 8 AWG or 10 mm
2
) to the lug and
replace the nut to secure the wire.
c. Secure the other end of the ground wire to the grounded
mast, pole, tower, or grounding bar.
Note: The ground wire should be as short as possible
and no longer than one meter in length.

Connecting Ethernet
Connecting Ethernet
1. Press down on the indicator arrows and slide the Port Cover off.
2. Connect a TOUGHCable or other outdoor, shielded CAT5e/6
cable to the DATA port.
3. Create a strain relief for the Ethernet cable by feeding a cable
tie through the tie slot under the cable. Then wrap the cable tie
around the cable and tighten.
18
airFiber 24G Quick Start Guide
4. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable from the DATA
port to the Ethernet port labeled POE on the PoE Adapter.
5. Connect an Ethernet cable from your network to the Ethernet
port labeled LAN on the PoE Adapter.
6. Connect the Power Cord to the power port on the PoE Adapter.
Connect the other end of the Power Cord to a power source.
Note: For added protection, we recommend installing
two GigE PoE surge protectors. Install the first surge
protector within one meter of the airFiber DATA port, and
install the second surge protector at the ingress point of
the location housing the wired network equipment.
