The Dahua DH-PFWB5-30N (Dahua lists it as PFWB5-30n) is a V-Radio 5GHz N300 outdoor wireless bridge (CPE): a WiFi bridge on the 802.11a/n standard for point to point and point to multipoint links. Dahua describes the PFWB5 series as dedicated to last-mile and video surveillance applications. It has an integrated 2x2 MIMO radio, a 15dBi directional panel antenna with a 30 degree beam, a transmission distance of up to 3 km and speeds of up to 300Mbps. Dahua lists it as the DH-PFWB5-30n (PFWB5-30n without the DH- prefix).
Also listed as PFWB5-30N.

No. Dahua lists it as not sold in pairs, so a link needs a second wireless unit at the other end. Dahua describes the PFWB5 series as point to point and point to multipoint base stations and customer premises equipment (CPE).
Dahua quotes a point to point transmission distance of up to 3 km (3000 m).
Up to 300Mbps on 5GHz 802.11n.
It takes a 24V PoE input at 0.5A, and Dahua lists a 24V PoE power adapter in the package, fed from 100 - 240 VAC.
It is an outdoor unit rated for -30 °C to +70 °C, with wall or pole mounting. Dahua quotes IP65 in its overview and IP66 in its specification table.
Dahua says TDMA stabilises video transmission bandwidth and helps to locate hidden nodes on the wireless link.
PtP is short for point to point: a PtP wireless bridge links two places directly over a 5GHz radio path. The DH-PFWB5-30N is sold singly, so a PtP link needs a second wireless unit at the other end, up to 3 km away.
