Optimize WLAN Range and Power
NETGEAR’s line of antennas and accessories gives you multiple options for maximizing the reach and performance of your wireless devices. Every WLAN deployment is unique. When planning a network that incorporates wireless, varying facility sizes, construction materials, distance between transmission points and physical obstructions must be accounted for. With both directional and omni-directional antennas (also referred to as range extenders), low-loss cables, mounting hardware, and other accessories, installers can customize a wireless solution that meets the requirements of even the most challenging applications.

18 dBi Patch Panel Directional Antenna
This indoor/outdoor directional* antenna provides a 3-in-1 solution for mixed applications in combination with an 802.11b or 802.11g access point or wireless router. One, it delivers extended access point range in a single floor environment ideally positioned in the corner of a building. Two, it functions point-to-point so that you can wirelessly connect LANs between the buildings in a campus-type environment. Three, it provides multifloor transmission when placed on a ceiling, as the higher power output extends the range through typical flooring materials. Includes several mounting options (fixed wall, wall adjustable, and pole), cable sold separately.

* Directional: Concentrates transmit and receive radio-frequency energy into a cone, or beam, for higher signal strength and reception.

Note: To obtain optimal results in extending wireless range with antenna installations, it is recommended that a qualified, professional installer is consulted for site survey and proper installation.
