R5H This industrial grade 802.11a wireless card from MikroTik is a
new standard in quality. MMCX antenna connector provides a
secure connection to your antenna, and a special screw allows
you to securely fasten the card in it’s place.
The R5H provides three kinds of filters in RX path for selection
to reject unwanted signals, so that more bandwidth can be used
for communication. Because of the high sensitivity of R5H, it can
achieve the same distance as competing products with higher
power.
• Atheros AR5414A B2B
• Average power up to 25dBm
• External Screw hole reserved against vibration
• DIP type MMCX RF connectors provide robust assembly for
antenna
• Heat sink design provides reliable high power RF performance
• Integrated RF ESD and surge protector
• High rejection filter to reduce interference
