Product description:
Pair a RocketDish™ antenna with a Rocket™ basestation to create the endpoint of a high-performance, Point-to-Point (PtP) bridge or network backhaul (Rocket sold separately).
The RocketDish is available in the following frequency models:
• 2.4 GHz
• 3 GHz
• 5 GHz
Carrier-Class Construction
Incorporating a dish reflector design for excellent beam directivity, the RocketDish antennas feature robust mechanical design using industrial-strength hardware for outdoor application use.
Plug and Play Integration
RocketDish antennas and Rocket basestations have been designed to seamlessly work together. Every RocketDish has a built-in Rocket mount, so installation requires no special tools.
Snap the Rocket securely into place and mount the antenna; you then have the optimal combination of RocketDish and Rocket for your PtP application.
Powerful Performance
The RocketDish antenna delivers 2x2, dual-polarity performance. On the right is one example of how
the RocketDish with Rocket can be deployed in a backhaul link to deliver bandwidth from an ISP network out to a neighborhood tower. From there, an airMAX® Sector with Rocket delivers bandwidth to the ISP’s customers
Hardware Overview
Innovative Mechanical Design
• Secure pole-mounting The hardware is designed to securely mount and maintain the position of the dish during harsh outdoor conditions.
• Convenient installation The bubble level allows for easy alignment.
• Precision elevation adjustment of the RD-5G30-LW Use this new feature to quickly fine-tune and adjust the elevation.
Weatherproof Design
• Protective shroud The shroud* protects the cables and connectors from nature’s elements.
• Mounting hardware of the RD-5G30-LW Made of galvanized steel that is powder-coated for superior corrosion resistance.
• Fasteners of the RD-5G30-LW GEOMET-coated for improved corrosion resistance when compared with zinc-plated fasteners.

The RD-5G30-LW features the same gain as the RD-5G30 and adds the following advantages:
• Lightweight yet robust components lessen the load.
• The extended depth of the dish reflector rejects noise interference in co-location deployments.
• The design of the mounting bracket allows for ease of installation on a pole or tower.
