Antenna 12dBi Omni 2.4GHz w/ N-male connector
12dBi omnidirectional dipole antenna for WiFi N-male connector.
- Articulating right angle: Can be straight or right-angle at the base.
- Radiates signal with a beam of 360 degrees; also receives a signal from 360 degrees around it.
- As an access point antenna, it signals clients in any direction (360-degree horizontal beamwidth).
- As client antenna: Connect to an access point in any direction.
- Designed for wireless 802.11n, 802.11g, 802.11b, 802.11AH devices: WiFi / Wireless networking.
- Capable of extending your wireless range of up to 650 m (2,132ft).
- Suitable for outdoor Access Points / Routers with N-type connectors.
- Frequency range: 2.4 - 2.5 GHz
- Length when fully extended: 23 inches (584mm)
- Data Alliance's high-quality soldered terminations of Type-N connectors with soldering provide a low-loss connection with minimal discontinuities.
- Nickel-plated brass body for enhanced corrosion resistance: Nickel plating is the most weather-resistant, corrosion-resistant metal plating.
Mount Options: See our mount options for antennas with an N-connector (Type-N connector)
Compatibility with wireless standards & applications: This omnidirectional antenna's range of frequency band compatibility in the 2.4 ~ 2.5GHz frequency band range, its excellent low broadband VSWR at < 1.6, and impedance matching to 50 Ohm gear makes it suitable and compliant for all the following applications:

N-type male Connector Characteristics and Details: Durable, weatherproof connection
- Nickel-plated brass body for enhanced corrosion resistance: Nickel plating is the most weather-resistant, corrosion-resistant metal plating.
- Our N connectors provide a consistent performance from 900MHz to 12.5 GHz.
- N-Female diameter is 0.620 inches (1.57 cm). N-male inside diameter is 0.620-inch (1.57 cm)
- N-connector gender is counter-intuitive.
- N-Type connectors are the largest RF connector types, usually found on large antennas, especially for outdoor use.
- Our N-Type connectors feature threaded coupling mechanisms and are fully interchangeable with N-Type connectors made to the MIL-C-39012 specification. These connectors are used in all systems with critical RF and mechanical performance.
N materials composition :
- Connector Body: Nickel-Plated Brass: The most corrosion-resistant plated brass alloys (better than gold-plated).
- Center Contact: Beryllium Copper, Gold Plated
- Crimp Ferrule: Copper, Nickel Plated
- Insulators: PTFE
- With our waterproof N male connector, they can be easily mounted to an L-mount (for wall or pole mounting) or enclosure to give total wireless coverage.
- Mount on our L-mount options by inserting the N-female connector of your cable into the L-mount from the bottom, screwing the antenna and cable together, and securing with the bulkhead, nut, and washer on the N-female cable.
- Magnetic base option: With an 18-inch cable to RP-SMA-male connector, the heavy magnetic base can hold the antenna upright in wind or on a moving vehicle.
- Mount Option: Compatible magnetic mount with N-female connector and cable to RP-SMA-male
