📌 Key Features
🔧 Frequency & Operation
Frequency Range: 5.15 GHz – 5.85 GHz (5 GHz band for high-speed links)
Antenna Type: Sector (directional) design — focuses signal in a 120° arc to cover a wide area in one direction.
Passive Antenna: Does not require external power — connects directly to the wireless radio via cables.
📶 Signal & Coverage
Gain: 16 dBi — strengthens signal for long-range outdoor links.
Horizontal Beamwidth: ~120° — wide sector coverage for serving multiple client units across a broad area.
Vertical Beamwidth: ~10° — focused elevation for optimal horizontal signal distribution.
Recommended Range: Up to ~5 km in ideal line-of-sight conditions.
Polarisation: Dual or ±45° polarization helps improve stability and supports modern MIMO radios.
🌦️ Outdoor-Ready Build
Weatherproof Rating: IP55 — dust and water resistance for outdoor use.
Wind Survivability: Designed to withstand strong winds (~220 km/h / 137 mph).
Operating Temperature Range: Typically from very cold to hot outdoor environments (e.g., −40 °C to +80 °C).
🔌 Connectors & Mounting
Connectors: Usually 2 × SMA or N-type connectors for MIMO connections to the base station unit (depending on model/region).
Mounting: Comes with mounting hardware for pole installation on towers, masts, or walls.
Dimensions: ~361 × 110 × 48.5 mm (excluding bracket).
📦 Typical Uses
✅ Outdoor wireless bridges for CCTV or network backhaul
✅ Wireless Internet Service Provider (WISP) base stations
✅ Point-to-multipoint deployments covering wide areas
✅ Campus, industrial, or urban outdoor networks
Compatible with base radios like RG-AirMetro550G-B for PTMP scenarios.
📌 Why It’s Useful
Broad horizontal sector coverage (120°) lets one antenna serve many client units with fewer installations.
High 16 dBi gain helps achieve strong signals over several kilometers.
Outdoor durability (IP55 + wind survival) makes it fit for year-round external use.
Easy installation and passive design simplify deployment.
