5G Xtream System with 3 Antennas & 7M Cable
For boat owners looking for ultra-fast internet on board, the new 5G Xtream from Digital Yacht offers 4G and 5G connectivity as well as integration with Starlink satellite systems for the best and most affordable blended internet afloat.
The 5G Xtream can support 5G (shoreside) connection speeds up to 3.1GB/s but also integrates a 4G Cat 20 modem, which offers connectivity up to about 25NM from shore at speeds of up to 2GB/s. The system uses three external antennas with dual high-gain vertical antennas and a separate compact dome for the higher 5G frequencies. This MIMO technology and, critically, separate antennas give optimum performance. There’s support for dual SIMs with auto (failover) or manual switching between operators.
The 5G Xtream features dual-band (2.4 and 5GHz) wireless connections, so users on board simply search for the secure wifi point and connect. There are also 4 LAN ports (10/100/1000 MB) for wired devices like smart TVs and a WAN port that is optimized for Starlink satellite connectivity, allowing the 5GX to act as a sophisticated and fast router for all on-board internet communications.
The Wi-Fi router can also be configured to access marina wifi hotspots as an additional method of internet access. This also supports the very latest 5GHz marina wifi services, and there's also a high-gain external wifi antenna available as an accessory.
For advanced users, the 5G Xtream allows for user management, VPNs, blacklists, and IOT applications. NMEA 0183/2000 data can also be connected using Digital Yacht’s LANLink devices. The integrated GPS allows for SMS reporting of boat position or even a geofence/drift setting when the boat is at anchor or in port.
The Digital Yacht 5G Xtream is supplied as a complete solution with antennas, mounts, and cabling – all that’s additionally required is a cellular SIM.
Configuration
Configuration is very simple. Just insert the SIM cards. The 5G Xtream has two standard SIM slots, and it is possible to fit two SIMs from two different network operators. By default, the 5G Xtream will query the SIM that is installed and automatically select the APN settings from its internal database.
However, it is very important that users “lockdown” their wireless network with their network name (SSID) and wireless password. This task only takes a couple of minutes and is done via the 5G Xtream web interface.
User Interface
Accessing 5G Xtream functionality is done via an easy web interface. Any locally connected device can simply enter the IP address into the password-protected interface to set up functions, view traffic and logs, and configure wifi.
Once set up, there should be no requirement to log in other than for diagnostics and configuration. Users simply access the internet through the wifi connection, just as they would in the home or office.
