Antennas RF Procurement Notes

Verify the specific connector gender configuration required for the installation site, as Type N Male or Female options may exist across the product family. Confirm that the 5.1–5.9 GHz operational bandwidth aligns precisely with local regulatory spectrum allocations. Ensure mounting hardware supports the specified pole mount or connector mount interface requirements.

Antennas RF Selection Notes

Select this model when horizontal polarization is required to minimize multipath interference in dense urban or industrial environments. The IP67 rating makes it suitable for harsh outdoor conditions where moisture and dust resistance are critical. Consider the 40 W power limit when designing high-power transmission systems.
