Antenna Dual-Band 2.4GHz 5GHz 7dBi Omnidirectional w/ RP-SMA

• As client antenna: Connect to access points in any direction. 
• As access point antenna: Provides signal to clients in all directions (360-degree horizontal beamwidth).
• Compliant with 802.11ac, 802.11n & 802.11g
• Mounts directly onto RP-SMA (female) connector of access point, bridge, client, or booster
• Portable size: Easily fits in laptop case.
• We have two versions of this antenna:
  • Articulating Right Angle:  Bottom section of antenna has hinged joint that bends up to 90-degrees. Can be used either straight or with joint-bend.  Part# is ADD7ext
  • Fixed Right Angle:  Bottom section of antenna has a fixed right-angle joint at 90-degrees. The fixed right angle provides weather-resistance / waterproofing.  Part# is ADD7extFRA.

Compatibility with wireless standards & applications: This omni directional dual band antenna's range of frequency band compatibility in the 2.4GHz and the 5.8GHz frequencies, its excellent low broadband VSWR at < 1.7, and impedance matching to 50 Ohm gear, makes it suitable and compliant for all the following applications:

• IoT wireless & M2M: 802.11AC, 802.11N, 802.11G, 802.11B, 802.11A
• As access point antenna: Provides signal to clients in any direction (360-degree horizontal beamwidth).
• As client antenna: Connect to an access point in any direction.
• Designed for wireless 802.11ac and other Dual Band 2.4GHz / 5.8 GHz applications.

RP-SMA Connector Characteristics and Details: 

• RP-SMA = Reverse Polarity SMA. Also known as SMA-RP, SMA-R, SMA RP, SMA R.
• RP-SMA gender is counter-intuitive: The gender is referring to the pins inside-not the threads. RP-SMA male have threads on the inside. More details regarding RP-SMA gender determination. 
• RP-SMA-male is also called "plug" and the respective female connectors are also called a "jack." 
• RP-SMA are round screw-type connectors, with medium-sized, threaded coupling connectors that are rated for frequencies from the lowest (DC) up to 18GHz.
• RP-SMA male connector fits items that have an RP-SMA (female) jack/connector.
• We offer an SMA wrench to assist in installing antennas, cables and adapters with SMA or RP-SMA connector(s).
• Composition of RP-SMA male connectors:
• 96% brass-copper alloy
• Less than 4% lead content (ROHS Compliant)
• 0.1% Chromium VI compound
• 0.01% (by weight) Cadmium / cadmium compounds
• 0.1% Mercury
• 0.1% PBBs
• 0.1% PBDE
• Mounts directly onto RP-SMA(female) connector of access point, bridge, USB WiFi adapter, or booster. See other magnetic bases that fit this antenna and have antenna cables with other types of connectors.
• Articulating (Bendable) Right Angle: This antenna can be angled up to 90 degrees (articulating right angle) or positioned straight. The articulating (bendable) right-angle isn’t weatherproof: Water can seep into the angled part of the antenna. Articulating right-angle antennas are therefore recommendable for indoor use or protected outdoors, i.e. under an eave. If you need a weatherproof dipole antenna, you should choose either a straight dipole or one with a fixed right angle. See our weatherproof antennas.
