Network professionals confirm it delivers superior gain and noise rejection for an omni pattern, resulting in fewer dropped connections and higher sustained data rates for clients in Point to Multipoint setups. This antenna is consistently viewed as an outstanding value, successfully balancing broad 360-degree coverage with reliable performance and durability, making it a dependable workhorse for base stations and small campus environments.
Know before you buy
This antenna is specifically designed to integrate seamlessly with Ubiquiti RocketM radios. It features a built-in mount that allows the radio to snap directly onto the back of the antenna without the need for extra tools.
Yes, this is an omnidirectional antenna, meaning it broadcasts and receives signals in a full 360-degree pattern. It is an excellent choice for base station deployments where you need to provide coverage to clients located in all directions around the mounting point.
This antenna operates within the 5.45 GHz to 5.85 GHz frequency range. It is optimized for the 5 GHz band, making it suitable for high-speed wireless networking in environments where that spectrum is available.
Yes, it is engineered for outdoor use and includes the necessary hardware for pole mounting. Its rugged construction is designed to withstand typical outdoor environmental conditions when deployed as part of a base station setup.
The 2x2 Dual Polarity MIMO support allows the antenna to send and receive two separate data streams simultaneously using vertical and horizontal polarization. This significantly improves throughput and connection reliability compared to older, single-polarity antennas.
