node/base antenna

update : short cable if you mount something close to the antenna

hey hey, excellent

2.5 meter of cable, looks great

dBi not indicated, is it better than this 5 dBi one ?

it’s 3 dbi , but better suitable for outdoor use ( stainless) and comes with cable and mounting bracket.

and here you’ll find material to mount your antenna : http://www.antennebeugel.nl/index.php

@BoRRoZ
Oh, I thought the one you presented was better or at least equivalent because you’re right perfect for outdoor

I’m waiting for my https://www.aerial.net/shop/product/39/1102/ezynet-outdoor-enclosure-1-ethernet.html

You have a good distance with this antenna?

Charles · July 6, 2016, 4:42pm

@hugomartins
I’ll do some test as soon as I put my gateway on the roof

hugomartinsttn · July 6, 2016, 4:52pm

Ok, with my antenna i dont have a very good performance, i expected more.

I think this antenna is normal, i need buy a 5dB antenna to try increase the distance/sensibility. And a SMA cable to put the antenna outside of the box,

You have tested this antennas in the gateway?
Can you give us your feedback about tested distances?

There is any limit of antenna dB can use in the gateway?
I read somewhere that the max antenna dB can use in gateway Lora is 5dB

sorry, this is the bargain basement and maybe its better to start a separate ‘antenna’ topic

Been using this antenna (34eu) for 868mhz gateway for half a year. Works great.
