MikroTik LHG 5 Dual-Chain 24.5dBi 5GHz Wireless Bridge Antenna
The MikroTik LHG 5 pairs a 24.5dBi dual-polarization grid antenna with an 802.11a/n radio for long-range point-to-point wireless links or CPE deployment, drawing just 6 W over Passive PoE and staying protected by a wind-resistant grid enclosure.Overview
The MikroTik LHG 5 is a lightweight, weatherproof 5GHz wireless device with an integrated 24.5dBi dual-polarization grid antenna, purpose-built for point-to-point backhaul links and long-distance CPE deployments. Because the antenna element is built directly into the wireless unit, there is no signal loss from external cabling, and the enclosed grid design shields the radio from wind loading.
Key Features
- Integrated 24.5dBi dual-chain grid antenna eliminates cable loss between radio and antenna

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the LHG 5 used for in typical deployments?
The LHG 5 is designed for long-range point-to-point wireless links between office buildings, remote sites, or as a customer premises equipment (CPE) in a service provider network.
How does a 24.5 dBi antenna improve wireless range?
The high dBi rating means the antenna concentrates RF energy into a focused directional pattern, enabling reliable long-distance links that would not be possible with standard omnidirectional antennas.
Can I use the LHG 5 for both fixed and mobile deployments?
The LHG 5 is optimized for fixed point-to-point installations between buildings or towers; it can also serve as a dedicated CPE in ISP point-to-multipoint networks.
What does dual-polarization mean and why is it useful?
Dual-polarization lets the LHG 5 transmit and receive on two polarization planes simultaneously, improving signal reliability and capacity in challenging RF environments.
Is the LHG 5 weatherproof for outdoor mounting?
The grid antenna is enclosed in a wind-resistant weatherproof structure, making it suitable for long-term outdoor deployment on poles, towers, and building rooftops.
How much power does the LHG 5 consume?
The LHG 5 draws only 6 W of power, supplied via Passive PoE, making it efficient for remote sites with limited power infrastructure.
Can Procure.ae arrange delivery of the LHG 5 to outdoor installation sites?
Yes, Procure.ae delivers across the UAE and GCC. Discuss your site location and mounting requirements when requesting a quote for outdoor wireless deployment.
