IAP-114 and external antennas choices

    Posted Jun 10, 2014 04:16 PM

    I have a customer asking for external antennas, low profile, etc.

    I have not had any experience with the type of external antennas that are offered and was wondering if the ones I chose are correct for the type of AP.

     

    Can the following antennas work?

    AP-ANT-13B (pack of 3)

    AP-ANT-16?

    Both are low profile, 13B allows the placement of the antenna in different areas.

     

    What about the cable to purchase with these antennas to connect back to the IAP? Does it come with one? is it separate?

    Either antenna will work.  The 13B has higher gain in 5GHz than the -16.   All three of the AP-ANT-13B, however, need to be mounted in the same place for proper operation similar to the photo below.   Both antenna come with pigtail cables.

    Also, please describe the requirements of the application so we can make sure these are the correct antenna for the project.
