McGill Antenna 13dBi Flat Panel Directional Tuned 915MHz for Helium Hotspot Miners

McGill Antenna 13dBi Flat Panel Directional Tuned 915MHz Helium Hotspot Miner

The McGill 13dBi Flat Panel Antenna is massive and extremely powerful. This unique 13dBi tuned antenna is directional and has the additional significant advantage that it can be tilted or moved in the Azimuth direction – unlike all other Omni Directional Antennas.

Omni directional Antennas radiate 360 degrees – this unique flat panel Antenna design is radically different in that it takes all of the radiated energy which usually would be transmitted behind and to the side of the Antenna and focuses all of this RF energy into the forward direction only – in one very high beam – typically 65 degrees Vertical beam width.

Typical applications:

Where it’s desired to steer /direct the Radiated beam into a large or difficult to reach target area. This is achieved by utilising the unique feature of this Antenna design of being able to tilt or move in the Antenna utilizing it’s tillable and rotatable Antenna Mount (supplied) to focus the large beam exactly in the direction required.

Ideal for mounting on high up Balconies or Tower Blocks where Antennas are blocked from radiating in the rearwards direction.

Installations located on the coast where transmission to the antenna rear is not required/desired.

Installations located immediately in front of large hills or building where rear radiation is blocked and therefore not required.

Connector Type: N-Female

Note 1: You will need a coax cable that has a N-Male connector for this antenna. This is worth mentioning because many outdoor antennas for Helium tend to come with N-Male connectors, so this one is different and you want to make sure you have the right cable or have an adapter in hand.

Note 2: This antenna is gigantic, and weighs more than 12 lbs. Figuring out where and how to mount it isn't a small task. We do not accept returns for this item so please make sure you have the right setup before placing an order.
