MikroTik R5SHPn 5GHz 802.11n Wireless Access Point miniPCI Card

The MikroTik R5SHPn is a 5 GHz super high power miniPCI wireless card engineered for long-range point-to-point links and high-performance access point deployments. Built around the AR9220 chipset and supporting 802.11a/n (Wi-Fi 4), it delivers a 29 dBm output power that extends usable range well beyond what standard-power cards can achieve — making it a professional-grade solution for last-mile connectivity challenges. The card ships with a preinstalled industrial-grade heatsink to manage sustained high-power operation, a single MMCX antenna connector, and nine onboard LED indicators covering wireless mode, connection status, TX/RX activity, and signal strength. This real-time visual feedback simplifies field installation and antenna alignment without requiring additional test equipment. Suitable for both indoor and outdoor deployments, the R5SHPn carries FCC certification and is a purpose-built tool for network integrators demanding reliable, high-power 5 GHz wireless performance.

Key features & benefits

• 29 dBm Output Power — High transmit power enables links to span distances that would be unreachable with conventional wireless cards, directly supporting last-mile broadband deployments and extended campus coverage.
• 802.11a/n (Wi-Fi 4) on 5 GHz — Operation on the 5 GHz band using the AR9220 chipset and 802.11a/n standards provides the throughput and spectral characteristics suited to high-density or interference-sensitive environments.
• Nine Onboard LED Indicators — Dedicated LEDs display wireless mode, connection status (connected, searching, disabled), TX and RX activity, and wireless signal strength, giving installers immediate visual feedback during alignment without a separate diagnostic tool.
• Industrial-Grade Heatsink Preinstalled — The factory-fitted heatsink is designed to dissipate the thermal load generated by sustained high-power transmission, supporting long-term reliability in both indoor and outdoor installations.
• Single MMCX Antenna Connector — The MMCX connector interface provides a compact, secure antenna connection compatible with a wide range of external antennas and enclosures used in professional wireless infrastructure.
• miniPCI Form Factor — The standard miniPCI format ensures broad compatibility with RouterBOARD platforms and third-party equipment that accept miniPCI expansion cards, simplifying integration into existing hardware.
• FCC Certified — FCC certification confirms the card meets US regulatory requirements for intentional radiators, supporting lawful deployment in North American commercial and carrier-grade wireless networks.
• Indoor and Outdoor Capable — The R5SHPn is rated for use in both indoor equipment rooms and outdoor enclosures, giving network designers flexibility in how and where it is deployed within a wireless infrastructure.
