Laird Technologies Releases New Dual-Band 5 GHz Antenna

Laird Technologies designed this antenna and enclosure to accommodate smaller-sized equipment requirements for Broadband Wireless Access (BWA) suppliers and carriers who deploy industrial WiFi / WLAN / WiMax / LTE systems, mesh networks, Wi-PoP base stations, and client antennas using Point-to-Point and WISP applications.

The metallic die-cast enclosure is available as a stand-alone unit with an integrated low-gain antenna, a detachable high-gain panel antenna or an aluminum box with no antenna. All models have a removable and customizable user-mounting plate inside for easy installation of electronics, as well as a hinged cover with an IP-67 water and dust seal rating for easy maintenance.

The HD RooTenna® is available in either pole-mount or wall-mount versions, with or without a heavy duty tilt bracket. There are eight engineered knockouts that eliminate the need for drilling: seven for cable configurations and one for a bulkhead connector-only configuration.
