The Astra Quasar Qsr5-26 is an outdoor point-to-point wireless system designed for high-speed, stable data transmission in the five gigahertz frequency band. It supports wide channel bandwidths and high throughput, providing efficient connectivity for links up to twenty kilometers when used with its integrated antenna.

The unit is equipped with a removable dual-polarized antenna offering a gain of twenty-six decibels and an eight-by-eight-degree beamwidth. This configuration ensures reliable link performance, precise alignment, and improved resistance to interference. Based on MIMO and OFDM technologies, the Quasar Qsr5-26 delivers adaptive modulation up to QAM 4096, automatic transmit power control, and intelligent bitrate management for consistent performance in variable conditions.

Networking capabilities include VLAN and QoS support, a full Layer-2 switch, and the proprietary MINT protocol for optimized traffic flow. The device features a Combo Gigabit Ethernet and SFP interface and supports flexible power options such as AC, DC, and PoE for versatile installation.

Built for demanding outdoor environments, the Quasar Qsr5-26 meets IP66 and IP67 protection standards, operates across a wide temperature range, and resists wind, moisture, and dust.

It includes advanced management and security tools such as a web interface, SSH access, SNMP monitoring, and compatibility with Astra’s EMS NEXT system for centralized configuration, monitoring, and updates. Combining performance, reliability, and convenience, the Astra Quasar Qsr5-26 is an excellent choice for medium-distance, high-capacity wireless backhaul and professional outdoor networking.
