Direct answer: what is the MikroTik QMP?
The MikroTik QMP, also called quickMOUNT pro, is an adjustable mounting adapter for small point-to-point antennas, sector antennas and compatible pole-mountable wireless devices. It is mainly used to secure the equipment to a wall or larger pole while allowing fine horizontal and vertical aiming. Organisations planning outdoor wireless links, client connections, site coverage or backhaul installations should consider it when accurate antenna orientation matters. Before proceeding, confirm the device model, weight, mounting clip type, pole diameter, wall fixing method, environmental exposure and whether the project requires the standard QMP or a different mount such as QMP-LHG. The accessory does not replace correct structural assessment, safe work-at-height procedures or radio-link planning.
What it does
QMP creates an adjustable mechanical interface between the installation surface and the wireless device. Rather than forcing the installer to accept the exact direction dictated by a flat wall or fixed pole, the mount lets the supported device be rotated and tilted. The integrated graduated scale helps technicians note a position and return to a similar angle after inspection or maintenance. This is particularly useful on links where a small change in azimuth or elevation can affect received signal level, noise margin and connection stability.
Who it suits
The accessory may be relevant to wireless internet service providers, IT contractors, system integrators, property operators, hotels, logistics centres, schools, industrial sites and organisations linking separate buildings. It is best suited to projects using compatible compact equipment within the stated load and mounting limits. Buyers working with LHG products, heavy antennas, unusually large poles or non-standard brackets should not assume fitment; the correct mounting family and complete installation hardware should be reviewed first.
Business challenges the QMP helps address
The wall faces the wrong direction
A building surface may be structurally convenient but not aligned with the remote endpoint. The adjustable arm can provide the directional freedom needed to orient a compatible device without creating a custom metal bracket.
Fine alignment is difficult
Small outdoor radios often need careful aiming. The graduated scale gives the installer a useful reference while adjusting horizontal and vertical position, although final alignment should still be verified through the radio’s signal and link data.
A large pole needs a smaller interface
The QMP can act as an adapter between a larger supporting pole and a smaller antenna mounting arrangement. Pole size and supplied clamp range must be checked before the site team finalises the installation method.
Maintenance needs repeatability
When a device is removed or adjusted, technicians benefit from recorded angle references. A marked scale cannot replace link testing, but it can reduce uncertainty when restoring a previously documented orientation.
Core mounting capabilities
Two-plane adjustment
The mount allows movement in horizontal and vertical planes, supporting up to 140 degrees of adjustment for MikroTik products.
Wall or pole installation
It can be fixed to a suitable wall or attached to an appropriate pole, subject to correct anchors, clamps and site conditions.
Graduated alignment scale
The built-in scale gives installers a visual angle reference during initial aiming, documentation and later adjustment.
Composite construction
MikroTik specifies anvilNITE composite material, selected for a durable mounting body without the weight of a large metal assembly.

Compatibility and scope notice
QMP is a mechanical accessory, not a universal guarantee of compatibility. The supported device must have an appropriate pole-mountable interface or use the relevant MikroTik clip arrangement, remain within the stated weight limit and be installed so that wind loading, leverage and cable strain are acceptable. The separate QMP-LHG model is intended for LHG devices and should not be substituted without checking the exact requirement.
Wall anchors shown in product documentation may not be suitable for every concrete, block, cladding or insulated façade. A qualified installer should select fixings according to the substrate, outdoor exposure and local safety requirements. Projects at height also require appropriate access planning, fall protection, lightning and surge considerations, weather sealing and safe cable management.
Purchase and deployment journey
Identify the device
Record the exact MikroTik or third-party product model, hardware revision and existing mounting clip. Product photographs help when the original bill of materials is unavailable.
Check the site
Confirm wall construction or pole diameter, mounting height, cable route, access method, wind exposure and available clearance for horizontal and vertical movement.
Validate fit
Compare the device weight, mounting interface and support structure with QMP limits. Confirm that the selected accessory is QMP rather than QMP-LHG, QME, solidMOUNT or another model.
Prepare the quotation
Include quantity, destination, required installation services, cable and surge protection needs, access equipment and any related wireless hardware in the quotation request.
Install and align
Secure the mount using substrate-appropriate fixings, attach the compatible device, manage the cable without strain and use live signal data while making final angle adjustments.
Precise alignment without a custom bracket
Outdoor wireless links often fail to reach their expected quality because the mounting point and the desired radio direction are treated as the same problem. A wall may offer a strong fixing surface but face away from the remote endpoint. A pole may be in the right area but provide no practical way to adjust elevation. QMP separates these issues by offering an articulated mounting interface between the support and the wireless device.
The 140-degree movement range gives installers significant freedom, but the best working angle still depends on the device geometry and cable clearance. During commissioning, the built-in scale can be used as a reference while the technician monitors received signal strength, signal-to-noise ratio, modulation rate and stability. The scale is helpful for repeatability; it should not be treated as a substitute for link testing, spectrum assessment or correct antenna polarisation.
Flexible wall and pole deployment
The option to use the quickMOUNT pro on either a wall or a pole is valuable for projects where site conditions differ across branches. One location may have a rooftop mast, another a reinforced service wall and another a parapet with restricted space. Standardising on an accessory family can simplify the installation plan, provided each location is checked rather than assumed to be identical.
For wall use, the installer must consider substrate strength, waterproofing, safe edge distances and whether drilling could affect insulation or concealed services. For pole use, diameter, wall thickness, corrosion and movement under wind should be reviewed. The documented 65 mm maximum pole size and 50–70 mm clamp range provide useful planning guidance, but the real assembly must be inspected for secure seating. A mounting accessory is only as reliable as the structure and fastening method supporting it.
Operational access and repeatable maintenance
A wireless installation should be planned for its full operating life, not only for the first day. Equipment may need firmware work, cable replacement, cleaning, inspection or realignment after changes at the site. The QMP’s adjustable form can make maintenance easier because a technician can loosen and reposition the supported device without removing the entire wall or pole interface.
Good documentation increases this benefit. The project record should include photographs, approximate scale readings, radio configuration, remote endpoint details, cable route and safety access notes. When the site team returns, it can compare the current position with the recorded setting before making changes. This reduces the chance of losing a known working alignment. Fasteners should be checked periodically according to environmental exposure and installation policy, particularly where vibration, heat cycles, salt air or repeated maintenance could affect the assembly.
Ideal business environments and use cases
Building-to-building links
A compact directional radio can be aligned toward another office, warehouse or security post when fibre installation is unavailable or impractical. Link feasibility remains dependent on line of sight, interference and local regulations.
Wireless ISP customer sites
Service providers may use compatible mounting systems to orient customer-premises equipment toward an access point while keeping the installation compact and serviceable.
CCTV network backhaul
Remote camera clusters can require a wireless uplink. QMP may help aim a supported radio, while the camera power, switching, surge protection and bandwidth design remain separate project elements.
Hospitality and campus connectivity
Hotels, schools and campuses with multiple buildings may need discreet adjustable mounting for outdoor wireless devices serving courtyards, annexes or operational areas.
Industrial and logistics sites
Warehouses, yards and workshops can use outdoor links to connect gates, offices or temporary operating zones. Dust, vibration, heat and vehicle clearance should be considered in the site design.
Temporary project locations
Construction and event projects may need adaptable mounting, but temporary does not mean informal. The support structure, fasteners, access controls and safe removal plan still require proper review.
Integration and operational considerations
The QMP is only one part of an outdoor wireless installation. Buyers should also examine the radio model, antenna pattern, frequency band, local permitted power, Ethernet and PoE requirements, surge protection, grounding strategy, cable category, weatherproof glands and management access. A mechanically compatible installation can still perform poorly when the radio design or cabling is incorrect.
Cable routing deserves specific attention. The Ethernet cable should have enough service loop to allow the full required movement without pulling on the device connector, yet it should not form a loose loop that catches wind or water. Drip loops, UV-resistant cable, suitable outdoor connectors and sealed building entry points help protect the installation. Where lightning exposure is possible, the complete grounding and surge design should be reviewed by a competent professional.
Management access should be tested before the installer leaves the site. Record the device identity, IP address, configuration backup location, administrator access method and link-performance baseline. This allows future support teams to distinguish a mounting or alignment issue from radio interference, cable faults, power instability or configuration changes.
Buyer questions to resolve before ordering
Which exact device will be mounted?
Provide the full model number rather than a general product family. Similar-looking MikroTik devices can use different clips or dedicated mounting accessories.
Is the total load below 1.5 kg?
Include the radio, antenna, adapter pieces and any attached hardware. Weight alone is not enough; leverage and wind exposure must also be suitable.
What is the support diameter?
Measure the pole accurately and check whether its condition and thickness support the proposed clamp arrangement.
Does the project need QMP-LHG instead?
LHG devices use a different mount version. The product family name should not be used as proof that the standard QMP will fit.
Who will install and align it?
Clarify whether the quotation should cover supply only, installation coordination, radio configuration, cable work, testing or documentation.
What environmental exposure exists?
Consider heat, salt air, vibration, sand, wind, rooftop conditions and maintenance access before approving the final mounting method.
