The vertically polarized ultra wide band 5GHz sector antenna systems offered by MTI Technologies are constructed of UV stable ASA plastic radomes and galvanized steel brackets with stainless steel hardware for long service life in the most demanding conditions. The ultra wide band operation allows a single antenna to cover a wide frequency range thereby allowing the operator maximum flexibility in his network. The antennas are DC Grounded for lightning/ESD protection. The heavy duty bracket system adjusts for up to 15 deg of down tilt.

The added signal strength and sensibility that comes with this Outdoor 15dbi Sector Antenna will make your Wireless Installation easier and more secure.  Mount this 5.8GHz Sector Wi-Fi Antenna on top of your building, Marina, RV-Park or Hotel, and tilt it towards the desired coverage area for a great signal, and excellent Wireless Coverage.

 

Mounting Hardware is included as well as basic Technical Support to get you started on your Wireless Installation.  This 16dbi Sector Wi-Fi Antenna works great in Point to Multipoint solutions as well.  Simply Mount the Outdoor Sector Antenna in pairs to create a 240° of Coverage, or in a set of Three, to create 360° of Coverage.  You can also use the 16dbi Sector Wi-Fi Antenna as a single, stand-alone Antenna for the desired 120° of coverage. 

 

Advantages of using Sector Antennas vs. Omni Antenna:

• More Clients: By using 3 sectors with 3 Access Points, you can triple the number of clients in a given area. This increases range, reduces latency, and speeds up network efficiency.

• Better signal levels:  Sector antennas usually have more gain than Omni's. This results in fewer retries and less packets lost.   By focusing the signal in the desired area, you increase signal strength.

• Eliminate interference: Because a sector antenna is directional and usually has good front-to-back (F/B) ratio, it can reduce or eliminate interference from sources that are behind the sector antenna.  You also eliminate overshooting your clients, which will happen when mounting an Omni antenna too high above the client.

• Channel Re-Use - Because the sector antenna can be down tilted, mechanically 3, 6, or 8 degrees, the signals are not thrown out to the horizon. This allows that same channel to be re-used several miles away at a different cell site, without overlapping. 

For the best results, this Outdoor 5.8GHz Sector Antenna should be used in situations where you have Line-of-Sight to the client locations.  Please contact us if you have questions about your setup, or need higher gain, outdoor Wi-Fi Antennas.

 

Please note:  Typical Wireless Range will be dependent on the following:   Transmit Power of your Access Point or Wi-Fi Router Outdoor Obstructions (trees, lakes, buildings, RV's, hills, etc.) Type of building material (metal, aluminum, wood, sheetrock) Mounting position of antenna dbi Gain of the outdoor antenna Length of coax cable connected to the antenna Client device receive sensitivity, and transmit power The stronger the transmit power of the access point, the better your wireless signal will carry, and provide a more enjoyable Internet surfing experience for your customers.  The Transmit Power on typical Linksys, Dlink and Belkin Wireless Access Points/Routers,  is usually in the 15dbm range, or 32mW Transmit Power.  This means that connecting a high gain antenna will help your range, but will not provide the increased distance and signal strength that say a 200mW, or even 500mW Access Point will provide.  To get the best range from your outdoor antenna, please ask us about upgrading your Linksys or D-Link Access point.
