Why buy the ZTE MC889 Outdoor 5G Router?
You may have come to the 5G Antenna Store looking for an outdoor 5G antenna to connect to your 5G router.
If you have not already made your decision about which 5G router to buy and you know that you only have a good 5G signal outdoors then why not install an outdoor 5G router where you were thinking about installing your 5G antenna.
This will eliminate the extra cost of an external 5G antenna because the 5G router is positioned outdoors where it can benefit from receiving the strong 5G network signal from your chosen 5G network provider.
If the 5G Router is Outdoors, how Can I use it Indoors?
Now that the ZTE is connected to the 5G network using the high gain antennas inside the weatherproof housing you can deliver this high speed 5G Internet connection to the bundled T3000 WiFi6 Router / Access Point (AP) using an Ethernet cable. Because the ZTE MC889 is powered using Power Over Ethernet (POE) using the supplied POE Injector it means that this same Ethernet connection can plug into the T3000 WiFi hotspot and deliver high speed Wireless Broadband to all your wireless devices inside with WiFi6 high speed wireless connectivity. So all your phones, tablets, TV’s and laptops can connect to the T3000 WiFi hotspot Access Point and enjoy high speed 5G Internet.
What about Wired Devices such as PC’s and Printers?
The ZTE T3000 WiFi6 Access Point also features a Gigabit Ethernet Port so you can connect this to a network switch and connect multiple wired devices which can share the high speed 5G Internet service provided by the MC889 outdoor 5G router.
What is the main benefit of the ZTE MC889 compared to a 5G router with external 5G Antenna?
The main benefit, apart from price by not having to invest in a separate 5G antenna is the fact that the cable between the 5G router installed outdoors and the T3000 WiFi hotspot installed indoors is that they are connected with an Ethernet cable which can have a maximum cable length of 100m and is just a single cable. Installing an outdoor 5G antenna a long distance sway from an indoor 5G router using longer than 5 or 10m of antenna cable can mean a big reduction in signal quality and service due to the signal loss along the length of the antenna cables.
