Antennas

Yagi antennas radiate and receive radio frequency (RF) energy equally in all horizontal directions. This broad coverage area increases the probability of maintaining connection stability, however the potential for interference and lower throughput is more likely.

Omni antennas radiate and receive RF energy in a selected direction, usually around 45 to 90 degrees. The signal from the target area is improved through directivity gain as long as there is no congestion. Interference is held to a minimum.

Whip antennas are the most common type of monopole antenna. They are a flexible, straight rod designed to pick up different frequency waves depending on the length. The bottom of the antenna is connected to the transmitter or radio receiver and is great for picking up the higher frequencies of HF, UHF and VHF radio bands.

Cellular antennas cover the entire spectrum of cellular standards including UMTS, GSM and LTE, with speeds from 2G to 5G. A mobile cellular antenna is perfect for applications that need a compact communications solution, such as public transit, automobiles, or remote sites and other industrial applications. Lightweight and customizable, these antennas can be selected by their mounting and connection types.

Dipole antennas have a two-pole design that receives signals from a variety of frequencies while also being able to sort out problems caused by conflicting signals without compromising reception quality. Dipole antennas are great for radio reception, two-way radio communication and broadcast reception.

Grid antennas or parabolic grid antennas, are high-gain antennas for point-to-point communications. They are ideal for outdoor conditions and can withstand high winds better than conventional parabolic antennas. Grid antennas are often used for long-range Wi-Fi, satellite communications and broadcast signals.
