I have download datasheet and I see :
"RF Connector Integrated N-type Male Jack (connects directly to antenna)"
It is correct ?

Hello,
I do apologize as this i incorrect. It is an RP-SMA
I will have the Data Sheet updated.
Thanks,
Mike

Hello Mike,
The documentation till now have not updated.
I have found still errors:
Memory Information: 16 MB SDRAM, 4MB Flash
Range Performance - (!!!) "over 50 km"
Weight - 0.18 kg
Power rating - up to 24v
It is correct?

Has noticed that Datasheet for PicoStation coincides with Datasheet Bullet5.
I have found still errors:
Memory Information: 16 MB SDRAM, 4MB Flash
Range Performance - (!!!) "over 50 km"
Weight - 0.18 kg
Power rating - up to 24v
The only significant error I can find is that the Pico 5 says 16 MB RAM and 4 MB flash where it should be 32 MB RAM and 8 MB flash.
Otherwise the range performance is typical of any other manufactures' description and the 24 volts would be correct.

And 50 km correctly? How you represent it to yourselves with the omni-directial 6 db?

2 months gone and datasheet is still incorrect - PLEASE update.
My dealer lists RP-SMA OMNI Included (6dBi US, 0dBi EU) - 0dB? How comes?
An indoor? omni antenna seem to be included in the package. But I need outdoor, that's why I plan buy 10+ picos/nanos (if availalbe in Europe, seems difficult anyway....)
I assume that 32/8MB and RP-SMA is still correct.
Is any lightning protection needed as all is plastic and shouldn't attract lightnings?
And 50 km correctly? How you represent it to yourselves with the omni-directial 6 db?You can use a 26 dBi grid at the station end and run it at the lowest data speed to get 50 KM PtP link with a mere 10% reliability metric.
Distances are meaningless if the exact metrics are not stated. All manufactures are guilty of this. Manufactures will advertise a 54 Mbps data throughput and give an example of a remarkable distance, but don't tell you its at the lowest data throughput with a very marginal reliability metric.
Is any lightning protection needed as all is plastic and shouldn't attract lightnings?If it was mounted on a plastic pole that is not damp or wet from rain, then it would not likely be a good lightning streamer initiator.
But how often do people use plastic poles?
There is no way you can fully protect it from a close lighting stick, much less a direct. But you can use proper grounding practices to reduce the chance of damage from a close strike and from ESD caused by wind blown dust.
