Dear Sirs

CAMBIUM NETWORKS CORPORATION

We have acted as Cayman Islands legal advisers to Cambium Networks Corporation (the "Company"), and we have examined the Registration Statement on Form S-8 to be filed by the Company with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (including all supplements and amendments thereto, the "Registration Statement"), relating to the registration under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), of up to 1,593,133 ordinary shares with a par value of US$0.0001 per share in the capital of the Company (the "Shares"), for issuance pursuant to the Company’s 2019 Share Incentive Plan (the "Share Incentive Plan") and Employee Share Purchase Plan (such plan, together with the Share Incentive Plan, the "Plans")).

For the purposes of giving this opinion, we have examined and relied upon the originals, copies or translations of the documents listed in Schedule 1.

In giving this opinion we have relied upon the assumptions set out in Schedule 2, which we have not independently verified.

We are Cayman Islands Attorneys at Law and express no opinion as to any laws other than the laws of the Cayman Islands in force and as interpreted at the date of this opinion. We have not, for the purposes of this opinion, made any investigation of the laws, rules or regulations of any other jurisdiction.

Based upon the foregoing examinations and assumptions and upon such searches as we have conducted and having regard to legal considerations which we consider relevant, and under the laws of the Cayman Islands, we give the following opinions in relation to the matters set out below.

1.
The Company is an exempted company duly incorporated with limited liability and validly existing under the laws of the Cayman Islands with full corporate power and authority to issue the Shares.
2.
The Shares to be issued by the Company have been duly authorised by all necessary corporate action of the Company and, upon the issue of the Shares (by the entry of the name of the registered owner thereof in the register of members of the Company confirming that such Shares have been issued credited as fully paid), delivery and payment therefore by the purchaser in accordance with the Memorandum and Articles of Association (as defined in Schedule 1) and the Plans and in the manner contemplated by the Registration Statement, the Shares will be validly created, legally issued, fully paid and non-assessable (meaning that no additional sums may be levied on the holder thereof by the Company).
