Omni Antennas
Wireless signals sent from a source, such as a cell tower, don't travel in a straight line. Instead, they emit in all directions—up and down, left and right, forward and backward. An omnidirectional antenna is designed to pick up these signal emissions across the entire 360-degree horizon around it. Its job is to capture the weak signals sent from any point within that circle and turn them into electronics that can be used by devices on either end of the wireless communication system.
Typically, an omni antenna's construction involves a vertical element, often a dipole or monopole, that sends signals out in all directions in the horizontal plane while keeping signal strength consistent across the board. That makes them an ideal fit for base stations and Wi-Fi access points — places where reliable communication is not just hoped for but absolutely necessary.
One main benefit of omnidirectional antennas is they are simple and easy to install. They can be placed on poles, rooftops, or any other elevated structure to give them the best possible coverage area. For indoor setup, just mount the antenna on your ceiling or a wall, and it will give you plenty of reliable coverage for an array of applications like enterprise Wi-Fi networks and indoor cellular boosters.
