The MikroTik SXTsq Lite5 is a high-performance, compact outdoor wireless device designed for reliable point-to-point connections and as a Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) unit. With its integrated 16dBi antenna and improved design, it offers extended range and durability, making it an ideal choice for establishing robust wireless links of up to 12 kilometers.
This updated model maintains the powerful 16dBi antenna gain of the previous SXT Lite5 but features a significantly slimmer profile—being twice as thin—while still delivering excellent performance. The SXTsq Lite5 is engineered to withstand various weather conditions and is easy to mount on both horizontal and vertical poles or masts. For precise alignment, the optional QuickMount Pro can be used, allowing for adjustment in any angle.
The device comes in two variants: the SXTsq Lite5-US, which is factory-locked to 5170-5250MHz and 5725-5835MHz frequencies, and the SXTsq Lite5 (International), which supports a wider frequency range of 5150-5875MHz, subject to country-specific regulations.
