Tri-Band 2.4, 5.3, 5.8 GHz Antenna
RD2458-5
The tri-band RD2458-5 series of antennas are high-gain (3 dB @ 2.4 GHz and 5 dBi @
5 GHz) omnidirectional antennas designed for indoor use. Rugged and reliable, the heavy
duty knuckle of the antenna gives angular detents at 0, 45, and 90°. The antenna features
a 360° horizontal transmission pattern and a 90° vertical transmission pattern. These
antennas offer a choice of connector options for maximum design flexibility (SMA, RPSMA,
RPTNC and N male).
FEATURES
• Tri-band operation: 2.4 GHz, 5.3 GHz,
5.8 GHz
• 0, 45, and 90° knuckle detents
(N-male not applicable)
• Extends range of wireless access points
or wireless bridges
• Available in SMA, RPSMA, RPTNC and
N-male connector versions
APPLICATIONS
• 802.11a/b/g wireless equipment
• OEM equipment
• Amplified antennas
• 802.11a/b/g applications
• WiMAX
