The Dahua DH-PFWB5-30AC is an outdoor 5GHz 802.11ac wireless bridge for linking two buildings, or a remote camera position, without digging a trench for cable. Typical uses are a gatehouse, outbuilding, farm yard or car park camera pole back to the main network.
Dahua rates it at up to 3km point to point, with bandwidth up to 867Mbps and 2 x 2 MU-MIMO. TDMA modes help keep video bandwidth stable, which matters when the link carries CCTV streams.
It has one gigabit RJ-45 port and is powered by the 24V PoE adapter in the box, which also includes a pole mount bracket. The housing is IP65 with built-in lightning protection and works from -30 to +70 degrees C. It is sold singly, so a link needs a compatible unit at each end.
Also listed as PFWB5-30AC.
