MikroTik RBD53IG-5HACD2HND hAP ac3 5-Port Gigabit PoE Router 802.11ac Dual Band

The MikroTik RBD53IG-5HACD2HND RouterBOARD hAP ac3 is a professional-grade wireless access point and router designed for demanding small-to-medium business environments where reliable dual-band wireless coverage and versatile wired connectivity are essential. Built around the RouterBOARD platform and powered by RouterOS Level 4, this unit delivers the full-featured routing, firewall, and network management capabilities that professional installers and network operators expect from MikroTik. The hAP ac3 supports simultaneous dual-band operation across both the two-point-four and five gigahertz spectrums via dual-chain radios paired with external antennas, enabling cleaner signal propagation and improved coverage in real-world deployment scenarios. Its five-port Gigabit LAN switch with PoE-Out capability on port five adds meaningful flexibility for powering downstream devices without requiring additional injectors or switches. A USB port extends functionality for peripheral connectivity or storage, and the included power supply unit ensures the device is ready for immediate deployment. This is a practical, enterprise-capable platform suited for offices, hospitality venues, retail environments, and multi-tenant spaces where both wired and wireless infrastructure must perform consistently under professional management.

Key features & benefits

• Dual-Band Concurrent Wireless — Simultaneous operation across both major wireless frequency bands allows the hAP ac3 to serve diverse client devices without contention, keeping legacy and modern clients on appropriate bands for optimal network performance.
• External Dual-Chain Antennas — The external antenna configuration provides directional flexibility and improved spatial coverage compared to internal antenna designs, making it well suited for installations requiring deliberate signal shaping or extended reach within a facility.
• Five-Port Gigabit Switching with PoE-Out — The integrated Gigabit switch supports high-throughput wired connections throughout the deployment, while the PoE-Out capability on port five allows installers to power compatible downstream devices directly from the unit, reducing cabling complexity.
• RouterOS Level 4 — Full-Featured Network Management — RouterOS Level 4 unlocks a comprehensive suite of routing protocols, firewall policies, bandwidth management, VPN capabilities, and monitoring tools, giving network operators professional-grade control without requiring additional licensing or third-party software.
• USB Port for Peripheral Expansion — The onboard USB port enables attachment of external storage or compatible adapters, extending the functional versatility of the platform to support use cases such as network-attached storage access or modem failover configurations.
• Included Power Supply Unit — The bundled PSU ensures the unit is deployment-ready out of the box, eliminating sourcing delays and ensuring compatibility with the device's power requirements from day one.
• International Version for Global Deployments — The International version designation makes this unit appropriate for use across a broad range of global markets, providing installers and integrators with confidence when deploying in multi-region or internationally distributed environments.
• Compact All-in-One Platform — By combining a multi-port Gigabit switch, dual-band wireless radios, routing engine, and power delivery into a single unit, the hAP ac3 reduces rack space, equipment costs, and installation time compared to deploying equivalent functionality across multiple separate devices.
