D-Link’s 5G/LTE Outdoor CPE

Equipped with six internal 5G/LTE antennas, the outdoor CPE allows service providers to deliver multi-gigabit internet to multiple customers in rural areas without the need to lay expensive fibre or wiring, according to a statement by D-Link.

The device features 5G and LTE dual-mode support, providing downlink speeds of up to 4 Gbps and uplink speeds of up to 620 Mbps in 5G mode, and downlink speeds of up to 2 Gbps and uplink speeds of up to 150 Mbps in LTE mode.

Dual-Mode Speeds and Fallback Support

The device supports fallback from 5G to LTE and can be used for backup or load sharing with fixed-line internet to offer a fail-safe, always-on connection, the company said.

Featuring a 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet LAN port with Power over Ethernet (PoE) support, the device can be powered and connected through a single Ethernet cable without the need for an extra power line, while the multi gigabit Ethernet port maximises data throughput.
