Network antenna ALLNET ANT-DUAL-PATCH-185

The ALLNET ANT-DUAL-PATCH-185 is a compact dual-polarization network antenna designed for dual-band wireless environments. It covers 2.4–2.5 GHz and 5.15–5.85 GHz frequency ranges and provides up to 7 dBi gain. The antenna uses an N-type female connector, measures 185 mm × 45 mm × 185 mm, and is finished in white. With a maximum power handling of 10 W, it is intended to improve signal reach and stability for compatible access points, routers and outdoor wireless installations.

Advantages

Dual polarization and dual-band operation allow the antenna to support devices operating on both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands, improving compatibility across mixed networks. A 7 dBi gain provides a balance between coverage area and directivity suitable for many indoor and sheltered outdoor scenarios. The compact physical size and the N-type female connector simplify installation and integration with standard RF cabling and mounting hardware. Low maximum power consumption makes the antenna suitable for deployments where modest transmitter power is used.

Suitable for

• Extending coverage for indoor Wi‑Fi access points and routers
• Integration with outdoor wireless bridges and point‑to‑multipoint links in sheltered locations
• Use in mixed 2.4 GHz / 5 GHz network environments requiring dual‑band support

How to use

Attach the antenna using a compatible N‑type male cable or bulkhead connector to the wireless device or extension cable. Position the antenna to achieve the desired coverage pattern — vertical or horizontal orientation will affect polarization and signal distribution. Secure any mounting hardware and ensure all RF connections are tightened to manufacturer torque recommendations when available. Verify the antenna orientation and signal performance using your access point or client device tools and adjust placement to minimize obstructions and interference.

Recommendations

Use the antenna in environments that match its IP exposure expectations (sheltered outdoor or indoor). For best results, match polarization between transmitting and receiving antennas, and avoid placing the antenna near large metal objects or sources of RF interference. Ensure cable and connector quality meet the frequency range to minimize losses.
