Antenna Factor is pleased to announce the OM Series of gain antennas. These antennas are designed to increase the range and reliability of wireless links while maintaining an omnidirectional pattern around the circumference of the antenna. This characteristic allows for greater flexibility in the placement of system devices than is often found in typical gain antenna solutions. OM Series antennas also feature rugged, weatherized construction making them well suited for both indoor and outdoor applications. The antenna includes complete mounting hardware for standard masts. The standard antenna features 7dBi gain. Higher gain versions are available upon request.
