External Antenna DELOCK 81473 — 5G LTE, GNSS, Wi‑Fi 6, SMA Connector, Gain 1.1–4.0 dBi, Omnidirectional

DELOCK 81473 is an external omnidirectional antenna designed for 5G LTE, GNSS and Wi‑Fi 6 applications. It provides improved reception for routers, gateways, modems and positioning devices through a single SMA connector. With a stated gain range of 1.1–4.0 dBi, the antenna is intended to broaden wireless coverage and enhance signal stability in indoor or outdoor mounting locations where simultaneous cellular, satellite positioning and Wi‑Fi functionality is required.

Advantages

The antenna offers omnidirectional coverage to receive signals from multiple directions without reorientation, supporting 5G LTE, GNSS and Wi‑Fi 6 standards via one compact unit. The SMA connector enables straightforward connection to many consumer and industrial communication devices. Its stated gain range of 1.1–4.0 dBi balances coverage area and signal focus suitable for typical access points and modem installations. The product is built for both indoor and outdoor installation scenarios where external antenna placement improves link quality and positioning reception.

Suitable for

• Improving cellular (5G LTE) reception for routers and gateways
• Enhancing GNSS signal reception for positioning devices
• Extending Wi‑Fi 6 coverage for modems and access points
• Indoor or outdoor mounting to optimize antenna placement

Key specifications

• Antenna type: omnidirectional
• Supported technologies: 5G LTE, GNSS, Wi‑Fi 6
• Connector: SMA
• Gain: 1.1–4.0 dBi (stated range)
• Mounting: suitable for indoor and outdoor use

How to use

Connect the antenna to the device's SMA antenna port, ensuring the connector is tightened securely but without excessive force. Position the antenna in a location with a clear line of sight to the desired signal sources when possible — for cellular and Wi‑Fi signals this typically means elevated mounting or placement near a window; for GNSS reception choose an area with minimal obstruction of the sky. Verify device settings to enable external antenna usage if required by the router or modem interface, then test signal strength and adjust placement to achieve the best reception.

Recommendations

Use appropriate mounting hardware and weatherproofing for outdoor installations. Avoid excessive bending or tension on the connector and cable. If signal levels remain low, try alternative mounting positions or check device configuration to confirm external antenna input is active.
