I want to use this:

 

Ubiquiti POWERBEAM AC PBE-5AC-500

 

 

 

To network bridge 25km's away.

 

 

 

Is it legal? Or do I require some kind of special licence?

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks

Yes it's legal providing you comply with the 5GHz GURL licence conditions.

 

Obviously to get 25km you're going to need perfect LOS, good clearance/fresnel zone and more importantly elevation at both ends. Assuming both points are flat that's realistically going to be a minimum of about 50m elevation at each end of the link.
