Your Outdoor WiFi, Redefined: Robustness Meets High-End Performance
Forget the problems of conventional outdoor WiFi solutions that often fail due to lack of robustness or insufficient performance. The MikroTik NetMetal 5 ax sets new standards. It's not just a simple WiFi Routers, but a comprehensive solution specifically designed for the toughest conditions. Imagine having a stable and fast connection, whether in industry, on a campsite, or in a remote outdoor facility.
WiFi 6 and Dual-Band: The Power for Your Network
With the integrated WiFi 6 (802.11ax) technology, you are ready for the future. This means not only higher speeds but also significantly improved efficiency, especially when many devices are online simultaneously. Thanks to **dual-band operation** on 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz, you can choose the optimal frequency for each application and thus avoid bottlenecks in your Network.
Flexibility that Inspires: Connections for Every Requirement
The MikroTik NetMetal 5 ax offers you maximum flexibility. The 1.25G SFP allows you to connect directly to fiber optic networks – perfect for long distances or environments with electromagnetic interference. And with the two RP-SMA connectors, you are not tied to internal Antennas. Simply connect external Antennas of your choice to precisely tailor range and directional characteristics to your needs.
Heart of Performance: Powerful Hardware
Inside the robust enclosure, a powerful dual-core ARM processor with 864 MHz and 1 GB RAM is at work. This guarantees smooth performance, even with demanding applications. The proven RouterOS v7 with Level 4 license also offers extensive functions for routing, firewall, VPN, and wireless management, allowing you to precisely configure your Network.
