PrismStation 5AC Radio
AP or Station - with airPrism Filtering
The PrismStation 5AC can be in Access Point (AP) or Station ('client') mode, just like the similar IsoStation 5AC. But unlike the IsoStation 5AC, this model has the advantage of airPrism technology to provide better filtering of unwanted nearby frequencies.
The PrismStation 5AC brings increased performance to your network using technology that isolates beam communications between your devices. It also adds quality and flexibility with a die-cast aluminum base and interchangeable feedhorns.
In stock now, pricing and availability here. Horn feeds sold separately

Here at UBWH Australia, we have been working hard to improve our service offering to you, our customers. In doing so, we are excited to highlight a few of our advantages:

2. Same Day Dispatch. Our new warehouse will dispatch orders the same day in 98% of cases, for orders paid before 12.30pm AEST and shipped by Australia Post. Occasionally, large orders will cause a delay until the next business day.

Crypto Currency Payments
Last month we announced that we accept Bitcoin directly, and pointed out that the ATO says: This guidance also applies to other crypto or digital currencies that have the same characteristics as bitcoin.
...
Where you use bitcoin to purchase goods or services for personal use or consumption, any capital gain or loss from disposal of the bitcoin will be disregarded (as a personal use asset) provided the cost of the bitcoin is $10,000 or less.
But - what if you want to pay with another crypto currency?
The Australian website Living Room Of Satoshi allows you to pay any BPAY invoice (including ours) with many different crypto currencies.
Another alternative Bitcoin-to-BPAY alternative is Noghi. Their fees seem cheaper, but only accept Bitcoin payments.
We have no association with Living Room Of Satoshi or Noghi.

Online Training
The UniFi Course has been upgraded and is now based on Version 4 of the Controller and runs on a CloudKey.
In a world's first, Online training (developed in Australia) is now available for the Ubiquiti products shown.
You benefit in a number of ways:
- Cheaper - than attending a formal 2-day course in a classroom environment.
- Faster - no need to wait until the next classroom course is scheduled nearby.
- More convenient - the self-paced courses can be scheduled around other demanding work.
- More practical - the Ubiquiti classroom courses are great for students needing to delve deep into theory such as Radio Waves, Antenna design, TDMA protocols, Link-Budgets, UniFi-WiFi site surveys, etc. But in many cases, students just want to know how to setup some very common scenarios. These Installer courses are targeted with less theory and more practice.
The way each course works is ... each student:
- signs up and receives by email a set of detailed course notes. These can be kept as a reference document for use later on-the-job.
- is allocated real test hardware for 7 days. This is hardware the student gets to configure (over the Internet).
- passes an online quiz for each module. When all module quizzes have been passed, the student gets emailed a Certificate of Completion.
