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.

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.

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).

SCHEDULE 2

Assumptions

This opinion is given based upon the following assumptions:

The originals of all documents examined in connection with this opinion are authentic. The signatures, initials and seals on the documents reviewed are genuine and are those of a person or persons given power to execute the documents under the Resolutions (as defined in Schedule 1). All documents purporting to be sealed have been so sealed. All copies are complete and conform to their originals.

The Memorandum and Articles of Association will be the memorandum and articles of association of the Company in force on the date of the issuance of the Shares.

The accuracy and completeness of all factual representations made in the Registration Statement and all other documents reviewed by us.

The Company will receive consideration in money or money’s worth for each Share offered by the Company when issued at the agreed issue price as per the terms of the Registration Statement, such price in any event not being less than the stated par or nominal value of each Share.

There are no provisions of the laws of any jurisdiction outside the Cayman Islands which would be contravened by issuance and allotment of the Shares and, insofar as any obligation expressed to be incurred under any of the documents is to be performed in or is otherwise subject to the laws of any jurisdiction outside the Cayman Islands, its performance will not be illegal by virtue of the laws of that jurisdiction.

The Company Records are complete and accurate and all matters required by law and the Memorandum and Articles of Association to be recorded therein are completely and accurately so recorded.

The Resolutions are and shall remain in full force and effect and have not been and will not be rescinded or amended.

The Registration Statement and the Plans conform in every material respect to the latest drafts of the same produced to us and, where provided in successive drafts, have been marked up to indicate all changes to such documents.

Each of the Registration Statement and the Plans (including each grant notice issued pursuant thereto) will be duly authorised, executed and delivered by or on behalf of all relevant parties prior to the issue of the Shares and will be legal, valid, binding and enforceable against all relevant parties in accordance with their terms under all relevant laws (other than the laws of the Cayman Islands).

10.

All preconditions to the issue of the Shares under the terms of the Plans will be satisfied or duly waived prior to the issue of the Shares and there will be no breach of the terms of the Plans.

(1)	Pursuant to Rule 416 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), this Registration Statement also covers such additional and indeterminate number of securities as may become issuable pursuant to the provisions of the plans relating to adjustments for changes resulting from a share dividend, share split or similar change.
(2)	Estimated pursuant to Rule 457(h) under the Securities Act solely for the purpose of calculating the registration fee. The price per share and aggregate offering price are based upon $20.72, which is the average of the high and low prices of an Ordinary Share on February 23, 2023 as reported on the Nasdaq Global Market.
(3)	Estimated pursuant to Rule 457(h) under the Securities Act solely for purpose of calculating the registration fee on the basis of 85% of $20.72 per share, which is the average of the high and low price of the Ordinary Share, as reported on the Nasdaq Global Market, on February 23, 2023. Pursuant to the Employee Share Purchase Plan, the purchase price of the Ordinary Shares reserved for issuance thereunder will be 85% of the lower of the fair market value of an Ordinary Share on the Enrollment Date or the Exercise Date (as such terms are defined in the ESPP.
(4)	The number of Ordinary Shares available for issuance under the Share Incentive Plan is subject to an automatic annual increase on the first day of each fiscal year, beginning with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2020, and continuing until (and including) the fiscal year ending December 31, 2029, with such annual increase equal to the lesser of (i) 1,320,000 Ordinary Shares; (ii) 5% of the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding as of the first day of such fiscal year; and (iii) an amount determined by the Board of Directors of the Registrant (the “Share Incentive Plan Evergreen Provision”). Accordingly, the number of Ordinary Shares available for issuance under the Share Incentive Plan was automatically increased by 1,320,000 shares effective January 1, 2023, which is the lesser of 1,320,000 Ordinary Shares or 5% of the total number of Ordinary Shares outstanding as of January 1, 2023. This Registration Statement registers the 1,320,000 additional Ordinary Shares available for issuance under the Share Incentive Plan as of January 1, 2023 as a result of the Share Incentive Plan Evergreen Provision.
(5)	The number of Ordinary Shares available for issuance under the ESPP is subject to an automatic annual increase on the first day of each fiscal year during the term of the ESPP, commencing in 2020, by an amount equal to the lesser of (i) 275,000 Ordinary Shares; (ii) 1% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares as of the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year; and (iii) such other amount as the Administrator (as defined in the ESPP) may determine (the “ESPP Evergreen Provision”). Accordingly, the number of Ordinary Shares available for issuance under the ESPP was automatically increased by 273,133 shares effective January 1, 2023, which is equal to 1% of the total number of Ordinary Shares outstanding as of December 31, 2022. This Registration Statement registers the 273,133 additional Ordinary Shares available for issuance under the ESPP as of January 1, 2023 as a result of the ESPP Evergreen Provision.
