The Mimosa A5x-EF is a compact, high-performance point-to-multipoint (PTMP) access point tailored for wireless internet service providers (WISPs) and outdoor broadband deployments requiring maximum versatility. Designed to operate in the 4.9–6.4 GHz frequency range, the A5x-EF leverages cutting-edge wireless technologies to deliver robust throughput, efficient spectrum use, and extensive range in unlicensed or lightly licensed bands. Its connectorized dual RP-SMA ports enable compatibility with a wide array of antennas, providing deployment flexibility to suit various coverage and capacity needs.
Engineered with a focus on high-density performance, the A5x-EF supports 2x2 multi-user MIMO and up to 500+ Mbps throughput, enabling efficient sector coverage and consistent end-user speeds even in congested environments. Its GPS synchronization capability allows multiple A5x units to operate on the same channel while minimizing interference, making it possible to increase network capacity without additional spectrum requirements. This makes the A5x-EF an ideal solution for service providers seeking to scale their networks without the complexities of frequency coordination.
The A5x-EF is built for challenging outdoor conditions, featuring a durable aluminum chassis that is IP67-rated for resistance to dust, water, and environmental extremes. This weatherproof construction ensures consistent performance in temperature ranges from –40°C to +55°C, allowing for reliable year-round operation in a wide variety of deployment scenarios—from rural hilltops to dense urban rooftops. The device’s lightweight, compact form factor simplifies installation, whether mounted on a mast, tower, or side of a structure.
Connectivity is provided through a single 1 Gigabit Ethernet port that supports both data and 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE) input. This streamlines cabling and power supply requirements, making installation more efficient and cost-effective. The device’s low power consumption of just 10W contributes to energy efficiency and compatibility with solar-powered or battery-backed systems in remote locations.
Centralized management is enabled through Mimosa’s intuitive network platforms, including the Mimosa Cloud and Element software, which allow for seamless remote provisioning, monitoring, and firmware updates. Operators benefit from real-time diagnostics, traffic graphs, and detailed performance metrics that simplify troubleshooting and ensure consistent uptime.
In summary, the Mimosa A5x-EF Access Point is a flexible and cost-effective solution for building scalable wireless broadband networks. With its compact, weather-resistant design, GPS-synchronized performance, antenna versatility, and centralized cloud-based management, it delivers the speed, reliability, and deployment flexibility required to meet the evolving demands of high-speed internet access in diverse outdoor environments.
