The MikroTik NetMetal ax (L23UGSR-5HaxD2HaxD-NM) is a dual-band Wi-Fi 6 outdoor radio in an IP66 metal enclosure, with two RP-SMA female connectors for external antennas.

It has a Gigabit port with passive PoE in, a 2.5G-capable SFP port for fibre, a USB port and a free miniPCI-e slot with a nano SIM slot, so you can add an LTE modem or a LoRa card such as the R11e-LR8. It runs RouterOS v7 on a dual-core 800 MHz ARM CPU with 256 MB of RAM. Antennas are not included; the HGO-antenna-OUT screws straight on for omni coverage.

Key features

  • 5 GHz 802.11a/n/ac/ax, 2 chains, up to 2400 Mbit/s
  • 2.4 GHz 802.11b/g/n/ax, 2 chains, up to 574 Mbit/s
  • 2 x RP-SMA female antenna connectors
  • 1 x Gigabit Ethernet with passive PoE in (18-28 V), 1 x SFP with 2.5G support
  • miniPCI-e slot, nano SIM slot and USB type A port
  • IP66 enclosure, 25 W maximum consumption

In the box

  • 24V 1.2A power adapter
  • Gigabit PoE injector
  • Metal ring
  • DIN mount (K-27)
