The Mimosa N5-X25-2P is a two-pack high-gain modular antenna solution designed for use with the C5x and C6x radios in Mimosa’s flexible wireless ecosystem. Engineered to deliver 25 dBi of gain per antenna, the N5-X25 is optimized for long-range point-to-point (PTP) and point-to-multipoint (PTMP) links where focused beam patterns and high directional precision are essential. Its modular twist-on design ensures fast deployment and seamless compatibility with Mimosa’s radio platforms, offering service providers and enterprise installers an adaptable and scalable antenna system.
Each antenna in this pack operates over a broad frequency range from 4.9 to 6.4 GHz, providing flexibility to support a wide array of licensed and unlicensed spectrum deployments. With a narrow 10° beamwidth and excellent front-to-back isolation, the N5-X25 minimizes adjacent channel interference and supports clean, focused signal paths for improved throughput and signal reliability, even in RF-congested areas. This makes it particularly useful in dense suburban backhaul scenarios or rural long-distance links.
The antennas are constructed from high-grade, weatherproof materials and meet IP67 standards, making them resistant to dust, water, and harsh environmental elements. Their rugged enclosures and mechanical integrity allow reliable operation in extreme temperatures and high-wind environments, ensuring longevity and stability in field conditions. The lightweight yet durable build makes it easy to mount and adjust on poles or masts, which is critical during field deployments that require rapid setup or repositioning.
In terms of performance, when combined with the C5x or C6x radios, the N5-X25 supports 2x2 MIMO and high-order modulation schemes, including 256-QAM, to maximize data throughput. The setup is capable of delivering up to 700 Mbps IP in PTP mode and 500 Mbps in PTMP with the proper software keys. Thanks to GPS synchronization support through Mimosa’s software-defined radios, multiple radios can operate on the same channel with minimal self-interference, further improving network scalability and spectral efficiency.
The twist-on design not only simplifies installation but also allows users to easily upgrade antenna performance as network demands increase. For example, a deployment can begin with a lower-gain antenna and then scale to higher gain, such as the N5-X25, without changing the radio. Security and management features, such as WPA2 encryption, RADIUS authentication, SNMP, HTTPS access, and Mimosa Cloud support, are inherited from the connected radio, allowing comprehensive remote monitoring and control.
Overall, the Mimosa N5-X25-2P provides a high-gain, long-range solution that is durable, easily deployable, and scalable. It is ideal for operators looking to expand wireless broadband coverage with reliable, high-performance directional antennas that are designed to grow with evolving network requirements.
