Mikrotik DISC Lite 5 AC is a 5 GHz airFiber solution that enhances the traditional Point-to-Point (P2P) and Point-to-Multi-Point (P2MP) setups, offering superior performance and range. This device is specifically designed for long-distance, high-speed wireless backhaul links, and is ideal for both last-mile connectivity and fixed wireless access (FWA). The DISC Lite 5 AC utilizes 802.11ac technology, providing improved speeds and capacity compared to its predecessors, making it a perfect choice for high-performance outdoor wireless networks.

The DISC is a low cost high gain 5 GHz CPE. We have improved antenna design, added Gigabit Ethernet port and 802.11a/n/ac support to achieve even more speed on longer distances.

DISC Lite5 ac is equipped with 21 dBi dual chain antenna, 802.11a/n/ac integrated wireless, 716 MHz CPU, 256 MB RAM, 1x Gigabit Ethernet port and RouterOS Level 3 license. It comes complete with a power supply, Gigabit PoE injector and a mounting ring. The device is also compatible with our SXT mounting systems, including the quickMOUNT pro series.

The RouterOS Level 3 allows to use the DISC Lite5 ac as a CPE or for 5 GHz Point-to-Point links.
