The MikroTik LHG XL 5 ax is a 5 GHz Wi-Fi 6 CPE with an extra-large integrated 27 dBi grid antenna, for long point-to-point links.

MikroTik quotes stable point-to-point links of up to 30 km in ideal conditions. The antenna is built into the wireless unit, so there is no cable loss. It runs RouterOS v7 with WPA3 and takes passive PoE from the included injector. A smaller 24.5 dBi version is sold as the LHG 5 ax.

Key features

  • 5 GHz 802.11a/n/ac/ax, 2 chains, up to 1200 Mbit/s
  • 27 dBi integrated grid antenna
  • 1 x 10/100/1000 Ethernet port with passive PoE in (12-28 V)
  • Dual-core IPQ-5010 CPU, 256 MB RAM, 128 MB NAND
  • RouterOS v7, level 3 licence
  • IP54 rated, 5 W maximum consumption

In the box

  • 24 V 0.38 A power adapter
  • K-LHG kit
  • Gigabit PoE injector
  • Hose clamps
