UBNT-ROCKET-R5AC-PRISM is designed with high performance and ease of installation in mind. This device features both airMAX ac and airPrism technologies for maximum wireless performance in high-density areas. It may be deployed anywhere in the world. It delivers complete coverage of the 5 GHz spectrum with a single radio. The Rocket5ac Prism allows for flexibility in configuring channel bandwidths (subject to local country regulations).

airMAX ac - unlike standard Wi-Fi 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 maximizes airtime efficiency, so airMAX ac technology provides performance improvements in latency, noise immunity, scalability, and throughput compared to other outdoor systems in its class.

airPRISM - To enhance airMAX ac performance, Ubiquiti Networks introduces their patented airPrism technology, which is featured on the Rocket5ac Prism, model R5AC-PRISM. 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 specialized circuitry, the High ‘Selectivity Receiver (HSR).

airPrism technology removes up to an additional 30+ dB of adjacent channel interference through the active filtering design, so an airMAX ac AP with airPrism technology can provide significantly greater performance than a typical AP.
