MAGNETIC BASE fits DIPOLE / OMNI ANTENNAS with RP-SMA male connector
CABLE to RP-TNC(m) connector: Fits Cisco / LinkSys routers
At right: 9dbi dipole / omni antenna connector, with male RP-SMA which fits this base (sold separately)
Magnetic Mount antenna base very firmly attaches to metal surface - at a height or position where it can pick up more access points. See compatible window mount (sold separately).
Base-top has an RP-SMA female connector, which fits 9dbi dipole / omni antennas such as the one pictured at the right side of this page: Click here to go to listing of antenna which fits this base.
The RP-SMA gender refers to the pins inside-not the threads. RP-SMA female has threads on outside.
The end of the 1.5-meter pigtail-cable has an RP-TNC (male Cisco / LinkSys wireless routers have an RP-TNC female jack.) connector. Cable is a low-loss, very flexible cable (loss-per-meter is equivalent to LMR100A).
WINDOW MOUNT (with suction cups) for this magnetic base: $8.99 (sold separately)
COMPATIBILITY AND GENDER DETERMINATION
RP-SMA male connector at the end of the bases' cable:
RP-TNC male connector on the BASE fits antennas that have a male RP-SMA (Reverse Polarity [RP] SMA) jack/connector.
Connector on the pigtail fits items that have a female RP-TNC (Reverse Polarity [RP] TNC) jack/connector. RP-TNC = Reverse Polarity TNC.
GENDER DETERMINATION: Gender of RP-TNC is counter-intuitive in two ways: Please observe picture & note it is correct.
1.The gender is referring to the pins inside-not the threads. RP-TNC male has threads on inside.
2. "RP" stands for reverse polarization: The pins are female when they appear to be male, and vice versa.
