Here comes one of your most versatile companions: the NetMetal ax!
A powerful outdoor access point with a long range that works in any environment. Designed for durability, it can be easily installed almost anywhere, as you can open and close the housing with one hand. IP66 protection protects the device from dust and powerful water jets – in damp attics and elevator shafts, busy docks or coastal tower structures. No terrain is too rough or impassable for the NetMetal ax – the Mars rover of network technology!
It has a modern dual-core ARM CPU, Gigabit Ethernet and 2.5 Gigabit SFP for fiber connectivity, a USB port and a miniPCIe slot that allows further customization.
For example, add an LTE modem for a mobile internet backup – the NetMetal has a NanoSIM slot ready for that! But there are also other options, such as adding a gateway for LoRa IoT setups, such as our R11e-LR8.
A powerful dual-band and dual-chain Wi-Fi 6 radio signal offers higher speed, stability, security, roaming, power management and other features compared to previous wireless protocols. Two RP-SMA
connectors allow you to add an antenna of your choice for distances up to 30 kilometers. If needed, you can customize the NetMetal ax for shorter range use with antennas such as our HGO Antenna OUT Omni antenna unit. It offers a gain of 3.3 dBi for the 2.4 GHz band and a gain of 5.5-7.1 dBi for the 5 GHz band.
