PCTEL Yagi Antennas
PCTEL Yagi antennas offer a blend of high performance and precision engineering that makes them suitable for a range of applications, including industrial and commercial uses far from the usual infrastructure of power lines, mobile towers, and internet wiring. Where most antennas emit signals across a sphere, these antennas harness the same kind of directional properties that let spotlights and laser projectors work: They concentrate the radio energy in a particular direction and with a lot of force behind it, letting the user achieve tunnel-like RF propagation.
This ability makes PCTEL Yagi antennas great candidates for the kind of point-to-multipoint setups that active-use, remote SCADA installations require, systems that call for the reliable transmission of a signal hundreds of meters away. And not just anywhere, but heading straight out toward a something that should also be using an RF signal: a pumping station, a gate, a wind turbine—whatever it is that makes a remote SCADA installation needed in the first place. Directional antennas enhance data throughput and connection reliability in situations where standard omni antennas might falter due to dispersed signals or interference.
FAQs
What are PCTEL Yagi antennas used for?
PCTEL Yagi antennas are used for long-range, directional wireless communication in industrial, utility, and remote applications such as SCADA systems, telemetry, and wireless backhaul.
How does a PCTEL Yagi antenna differ from an omni antenna?
Unlike omni antennas that transmit signals in all directions, PCTEL Yagi antennas focus radio energy in a single direction, providing higher gain, longer range, and improved signal reliability for point-to-point communication.
What frequency ranges do PCTEL Yagi antennas cover?
PCTEL offers Yagi antennas across multiple frequency bands, including VHF, UHF, 800–900 MHz, and 2.4 GHz, allowing compatibility with a variety of industrial and commercial wireless systems.
What is the typical gain of a PCTEL Yagi antenna?
Depending on the model and frequency, PCTEL Yagi antennas typically provide between 6 and 13 dBd of gain, improving link distance and signal clarity in challenging environments.
Can PCTEL Yagi antennas be used in SCADA and telemetry systems?
Yes. PCTEL Yagi antennas are widely used in SCADA and telemetry networks for water, wastewater, oil and gas, and power utilities that rely on stable, long-range communication links.
