WAE-5018PA - 5GHz 18dBi Outdoor Patch Antenna, Female N-Type
Heavy wind Resistant Antenna
The WAE-5018PA is a 5.25~5.875GHZ full range 18dBi wirelss panel antenna constructed of heavy wind resistant material. Unlike other low quality antennas that will flex in the wind and cause frequent signal loss. The WAE-5018 PA provide rock solid stability that can withstand strong wind at up to 216Km/h. The directional (horizontal 18 degree, vertical 18 degree) characteristic allow the antenna to focus its signal for longer distance. It is very suitable for outdoor client-to-AP application or point-to-point bridge use. The antenna is equipped with female N-Type connector for use with outdoor cable.
Focus AP's signal for longer distance
Wireless signal loses a majority of its strength when penetrating a concrete wall. Therefore, indoor AP has difficulty to makes its signal available outside of the building. The WAE-5018PA allows your AP's antenna to extend outside, mounting on a rooftop or outside wall. Furthermore, patch antenna focus the antenna signal in a particular direction to allow secure signal transmission over longer distance. This is essential for outdoor point-to-pint bridge use. The antenna comes with N-Type
connector to connect with outdoor AP. To connect with indoor AP's reversed-SMA connector, a RG316-SNF adapter cable and RG213-SNN cable is required.
