Mobielnetwerk-modem MikroTik LDF LTE6 kit

LDF LTE6 kit is a cellular network modem designed for extremely remote locations that still receive some mobile coverage. The device mounts to any satellite TV dish (dish not included), using the dish as a reflector to greatly amplify the cellular signal. The kit includes a CAT6 LTE modem that supports carrier aggregation to combine multiple frequency bands for improved throughput and responsiveness in congested or weak-signal environments. The unit is weather-resistant with an IP68 rating and comes with a PoE injector and a 24V 0.38A power adapter.

Advantages

The MikroTik LDF LTE6 kit can achieve very high antenna gain when used with sufficiently large satellite dishes, allowing effective gains of 30 dBi or more and enabling mobile connectivity in locations that normally lack coverage. CAT6 modem technology supports aggregation of multiple LTE bands, improving speeds and performance in rural or crowded areas. The IP68 enclosure protects the device from dust, dirt, sand and temporary immersion in water, making it suitable for exposed outdoor installation.

Suitable for

• Remote homes and farms with limited mobile signal
• Temporary or seasonal sites where wired internet is unavailable
• Rural offices and monitoring stations requiring stable cellular connectivity
• Use with an existing satellite dish to extend cellular reach

How to use

Mount the LDF LTE6 kit onto a satellite TV dish so the kit faces the sky and the dish acts as a reflector. Connect the device to the PoE injector and supply power using the included 24V 0.38A adapter. Connect the LAN port to your router or computer via Ethernet (10/100 Mbit/s). Configure the modem using the MikroTik management interface or your cellular provider settings to select appropriate bands and APN. Adjust dish alignment for best signal strength and test connectivity. Ensure all outdoor cable connections are weatherproofed.

Recommendations

Use a sufficiently large, securely mounted satellite dish to achieve significant antenna gain; larger dishes provide better range and throughput. For best results in congested areas enable carrier aggregation and choose bands recommended by your mobile operator. Regularly inspect mounting and seals to maintain IP68 protection.
