Description

This includes a 16 dBi Yagi antenna as pictured and a 5m (16ft) RP-SMA male/female extension cable, CFD-200 grade shielded.
More about the 16 dBi Yagi antenna:
This is has been the model of choice for our company, Rokland Technologies, for over 5 years. We have tried all the other cheaper ones and have not found one as good a quality as this one for the price. We have it manufactured to spec. It comes with mounting equipment and is 23 inches long. This antenna is ideal for outdoor mounting. Directional antennas concentrate gain in one particular direction and can do a better job at piercing obstacles in a particular direction, providing you with better distance and signal. They also reduce interference coming from other directions. Note that the antenna should be mounted in an outward direction so the length of the antenna is parallel to the ground. You do not want to have the antenna pointing directly upward or downward, as that will negatively impact performance. Because of the way these antennas are designed, we do not recommend using them indoors. The yagi antenna should have some open area between it and the very first obstacle between the antenna and the source AP. If you place the yagi right up against an obstacle, that will also negatively impact performance. A trial-and-error process may be necessary to determine the optimal location and position.
How to confirm gain?
Sometimes a prospective customer will link us to another antenna with a hefty advertisement of 30, 60, or even 80+ dBi gain. Because higher gain antennas can receive over greater distance, gain is one of the most commonly promoted antenna specifications. Unfortunately it is also the most inflated spec, because there is no easy way for customers to measure gain themselves. We recommend using two methods to determine what to buy. Number one- is the seller in the Wi-Fi industry or do they sell a lot of different products like pet suppliers and clothing? If they don't deal primarily in Wi-Fi gear like our company does, chances are they have not used the antenna and are just reporting what they read elsewhere about the product. At Rokland we use and test a unit of each product or antenna we sell to be sure it is true to spec. Number two- use the size to gain ratio. Generally speaking, higher gain antennas will be much larger than lower gain antennas. If you see a desktop sized antenna or even one the same size as our Yagi and it is advertised as 50 dBi gain, the item is too small to have that kind of gain.
More about the 5m/16ft antenna extension cable:
This is a low-loss RP-SMA male to RP-SMA female extension cable with CFD-200 shielding. The cable is 5m long (~16 feet) and has an RP-SMA male connector on one end (which is used to connect to devices such as PCI and USB wireless adapters that have RP-SMA antenna ports on them) and a RP-SMA female connector on the other end (this would be the end to which you would connect to the Yagi. We recommend this extension cable compared to some others online because this has a special low-loss cable. What does this mean? The antenna to which you will connect this has a gain. As the cable in between the antenna and adapter gets longer, you will experience cable loss, which is a drop in the signal gain of the antenna. With low quality extension cables, the huge drop in gain will mean a much lesser range. Our special low loss CFD-200 shielded cable limits the cable loss factor.
