The Problem: Poor Connectivity in Remote Areas
You know the scenario: In rural areas, holiday homes, or on farms, mobile Network coverage is often insufficient. Your smartphone barely gets reception, and a stable internet connection seems like a distant dream. Conventional routers or USB sticks quickly reach their limits here, leaving you stranded when you most need to be online. Working, streaming, or simply browsing becomes a frustrating test of patience.
The Solution: The MikroTik SXT LTE7 kit – Your Outdoor Internet Powerhouse
This is where the MikroTik SXT LTE7 kit comes in! It is specifically designed to overcome these challenges. As a robust outdoor CPE with a powerful LTE Category 7 Modem, it captures even weak LTE signals and converts them into a fast, reliable internet connection. Simply mount it outdoors, point it towards the nearest cell tower, and you'll enjoy high-speed internet where other devices fail.
Deep Dive: Technology That Impresses
At the heart of the SXT LTE7 kit is the R11e-LTE7 Modem, which, thanks to LTE Cat7, enables speeds of up to 300 Mbps for download and 100 Mbps for upload. The innovative Carrier Aggregation feature bundles multiple frequency bands to maximize bandwidth and minimize latency – a crucial advantage in densely populated or hard-to-reach areas. With two 10/100 Mbps Ethernet ports and flexible PoE functionality (802.3af/at PoE-In and Passive PoE-Out), you can not only easily power the device but also directly connect and power other Network components.
Your Advantage: Maximum Flexibility and Reliability
The MikroTik SXT LTE7 kit offers you not only impressive performance but also maximum flexibility. The two Micro-SIM slots allow you to quickly switch between providers or use a backup SIM to always stay online. The proven, discreet SXT casing is weatherproof (IP54) and designed for operation in a wide temperature range from -40°C to +60°C, guaranteeing long-lasting and reliable performance. With RouterOS v7, you also get a powerful operating system with comprehensive features for firewall, VPN, and QoS to professionally manage your Network.

Häufig gestellte Fragen (FAQ)
What is the main advantage of the MikroTik SXT LTE7 kit over a smartphone hotspot?
The MikroTik SXT LTE7 kit features an integrated, powerful antenna and a dedicated LTE Category 7 Modem, specifically optimized for outdoor use and receiving weak signals. In contrast, smartphones have smaller Antennas and are not designed for continuous operation under extreme conditions, which results in a significantly more stable and faster connection with the SXT LTE7 kit, especially in rural or remote areas.
Does the SXT LTE7 kit support Carrier Aggregation?
Yes, the MikroTik SXT LTE7 kit supports Carrier Aggregation. This technology allows the device to utilize multiple LTE frequency bands simultaneously to maximize available bandwidth, thereby achieving higher download and upload speeds as well as improved connection stability.
Can I mount the device outdoors?
Absolutely! The MikroTik SXT LTE7 kit is housed in a robust, weather-resistant casing with IP54 certification and is designed for operation in temperatures from -40°C to +60°C. It is ideal for outdoor mounting on poles or walls to achieve the best possible signal strength. A pole mount is included in the delivery.
How is the SXT LTE7 kit powered?
The device is powered via Power over Ethernet (PoE). It supports 802.3af/at PoE-In and a wide input voltage range of 12-57 V. A suitable 24 V 1.2 A PoE injector is included in the delivery, which significantly simplifies installation and Cabling.
Which RouterOS version runs on the device?
The MikroTik SXT LTE7 kit comes with RouterOS v7. This is the latest generation of the powerful MikroTik operating system, offering extensive features for network management, firewall, VPN, QoS, and much more.
