QuWireless AX50S QuSpot Outdoor 5G Enclosure for Teltonika RUTX50

QuWireless AX50S QuSpot – Outdoor 5G Enclosure for Teltonika RUTX50

The QuWireless AX50S QuSpot is an IP68-rated outdoor enclosure that houses a Teltonika RUTX50, RUTM51, RUTM54, or RUTM55 router alongside an integrated 5G/LTE omnidirectional antenna, a dual-band Wi-Fi antenna, and an active GPS antenna. The router mounts directly inside the sealed enclosure. No coaxial cable runs externally between the modem and the antenna, which removes cable loss from the signal path entirely and delivers better cellular performance than a standard indoor router installation with external cabling.

The AX50S is built for permanent outdoor deployment where routing the router indoors is not practical. The enclosure is rated IP68 and IK08, operates across -40 to +80°C, and supports passive PoE so a single Ethernet cable carries both power and data. The 5G/LTE antenna covers 617 MHz to 6 GHz continuously, supporting 4×4 MIMO via four internal SMA connections. The unit is manufactured in Europe.

Applications

Permanent Outdoor 5G Installation

Where a 5G router must be installed outdoors permanently – on a building rooftop, a mast, or street furniture – the AX50S removes the need to weatherproof the router separately. The sealed IP68 enclosure protects the RUTX50 from rain, dust, and impact. Because the router sits directly inside the antenna housing, there are no coaxial cable runs between modem and antenna element, so signal quality is not degraded by cable loss.

CCTV and Remote Surveillance Backhaul

For remote camera systems where a 5G backhaul is needed at the camera location, the AX50S provides a single outdoor-rated unit. Passive PoE support means one Ethernet cable carries both power and data to the enclosure. The RUTX50 or RUTM5x inside the unit handles 5G uplink while its Ethernet ports connect directly to cameras or a local switch. Pair with a fixed IP SIM card for private network remote access.

Maritime and Waterside Connectivity

The IP68 rating means the AX50S enclosure withstands continuous immersion. On boat installations, pontoon structures, harbour infrastructure, or lock gates, the unit can mount externally without additional weatherproofing. The integrated GPS active antenna supports vessel tracking and position logging alongside the cellular connectivity of the RUTX50 or RUTM5x inside.

Transportation and Vehicle Installations

On vehicles, trailers, or towable assets where a 5G connection must survive vibration and outdoor exposure, the AX50S provides a single pole-mountable unit. The RUTX50 inside handles dual SIM failover and VPN routing while the antenna covers the full 5G and LTE band range from 617 MHz to 6 GHz. The IK08 rating adds protection against physical impact during transit.

Industrial and Utilities Infrastructure

At unmanned remote sites – electricity substations, pumping stations, water treatment works, or pipeline monitoring points – the AX50S provides a single outdoor-rated 5G connectivity unit without requiring a separate comms cabinet. Combined with the RUTX50’s VPN capabilities, it can carry SCADA telemetry over a private encrypted link. For remote access to the router itself, Teltonika RMS is supported by all compatible router models.

Smart City and Public Area Connectivity

In dense urban environments where 5G signal coverage is strong, the QuSpot’s compact form factor and pole-mount hardware suit deployment on street furniture, traffic management systems, or temporary event infrastructure. The omnidirectional antenna provides 360-degree horizontal coverage without requiring directional alignment during installation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the router come included with the AX50S?

No. The AX50S QuSpot is the outdoor enclosure and integrated antenna system only. The Teltonika RUTX50, RUTM51, RUTM54, or RUTM55 is purchased separately and mounted inside the enclosure. routerstore.com stocks the Teltonika RUTX50 and RUTM5x range – see the related products section below.

What is the benefit of mounting the router inside the antenna enclosure?

The key benefit is the elimination of coaxial cable loss. In a standard outdoor installation, coaxial cable runs from the router’s antenna ports to an external antenna. Even a short cable run introduces measurable signal loss at 5G frequencies, and that loss compounds with cable length. Mounting the router inside the antenna enclosure removes this cable entirely. The modem connects directly to the antenna element via short internal pigtail cables, preserving the full antenna gain at the router’s input.

What does IP68 mean for this product?

IP68 is the highest water ingress protection rating. The enclosure has been tested to withstand continuous immersion in water beyond 1 metre depth. For outdoor installations this means the AX50S can be mounted in exposed positions – rooftops, vehicle exteriors, marine environments – without additional weatherproofing. The IK08 impact rating additionally certifies resistance to mechanical shock, covering the unit against physical impact during installation or in service.

Does the AX50S support Power over Ethernet (PoE)?

Yes, the AX50S supports passive PoE. A single Ethernet cable can carry both power and data to the unit, which is useful when running a separate power supply to the mounting location is impractical. Verify that your PoE injector or switch output matches the power input specification of the router model installed – the RUTX50 and RUTM5x have different input requirements, so check the relevant datasheet before commissioning.

What 5G and LTE bands does the AX50S antenna cover?

The 5G/LTE antenna covers 617 MHz to 6 GHz and supports a broad set of 5G NR bands including n1, n3, n7, n20, n28, n38, n40, n41, n77, n78, and n256. LTE coverage includes Band 20 (800 MHz), Band 3 (1800 MHz), Band 7 (2600 MHz), and Band 28 (700 MHz), which are the primary UK 4G deployment bands. Band 71 (600 MHz) is also supported for deployments in North America. See the specification tab for the full band list.

What SIM card do I need for the router inside the AX50S?

The compatible router models (RUTX50, RUTM51, RUTM54, RUTM55) take nano SIM cards. For CCTV backhaul, remote access, or SCADA applications, a fixed IP SIM card is the standard choice because it provides a consistent IP address for inbound connection. For general connectivity or roaming applications, a standard IoT SIM card is suitable. See our SIM connectivity page for available tariffs.
