Beijer Omni Antennas
Beijer Electronics Yagi antennas are for targeting radio signals where they are needed. They direct radio signals in one direction, dramatically increasing gain. Gain is a measurement of how well an antenna converts input power into radio waves heading out into space or how well it receives incoming radio waves. Yagi antennas work great in the communication situations for which they are intended. They have been used successfully in point-to-point and point-to-multipoint radio communication applications.
Beijer Yagi antennas are built to integrate with technologies that drive the modern industrial IoT, including 4G LTE and 5G, and are compatible with Wi-Fi and the kinds of signals generated by "industrial radio systems." Countless designs are impervious to the elements and resistant to UV rays. That's what makes these antennas the top choice of many industries, like automations integrators, utilities, and heavy industrial operators.
FAQs
What are Beijer Omni antennas used for?
Beijer Omni antennas are designed for industrial and commercial wireless communication, providing 360° signal coverage for 4G, 5G, Wi-Fi, and IoT connectivity across automation and remote monitoring systems.
What makes an Omni antenna different from a directional antenna?
Unlike directional antennas that focus signals in a single direction, Beijer Omni antennas radiate signals uniformly in all directions, making them ideal for broad coverage in mobile and multi-device environments.
Are Beijer Omni antennas compatible with 4G and 5G networks?
Yes, most Beijer Omni antennas are multi-band designs that support both 4G LTE and 5G frequencies, ensuring fast, stable, and future-ready communication.
Do Beijer Omni antennas support Wi-Fi and IoT applications?
Yes, Beijer Omni antennas are engineered for multi-network operation, providing consistent performance for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, LoRa, and IoT communication systems.
What frequency ranges do Beijer Omni antennas cover?
Beijer Omni antennas typically operate from 600 MHz to 6 GHz, covering a wide range of cellular, Wi-Fi, and industrial frequency bands.
Antennas: Omni vs Yagi
Omni Antennas can pick-up signals coming from all directions. They are most commonly used for signal reception over a large area where the potential location of any incoming signal's transmitter varies. Therefore, unlike Yagi antennas, Omni antennas do not need to be pointed in a particular direction. Each specific antenna has a gain rating or dBi (decibel isotropic) number which coincides with the performance of the antenna. The higher the dBi rating, the larger area covered.
Advantages and Disadvantages
• Easy setup and install
• Can send and receive signals from multiple locations with just one antenna
• Limited on the distance it can communicate
• Not a great option from areas with poor signal strength
