[WISPA] Dual-band Sector Antennas/Multiple Input Sector Antennas

2009-02-24 Thread 3-dB Networks
I'm helping someone design an antenna system to utilize the MIMO properties in 802.11n outdoors. The Cisco box he wants to connect to has three 5GHz and three 2.4GHz outputs. I'd rather avoid deploying six sector antennas (only need to cover about 120 degrees. so I figured three 90degree sectors

Right... N relies on MIMO... so antenna diversity is important. In an indoor application this AP would have six small Omni antennas on it... just inches apart from each other. I don't think the exact placement of the antennas is important, as long as the patterns overlap. I've never seen

Those that Ryan linked you to (I believe) are the exact same ones that I bought. If not the same then they're the same functionally. If you buy $50 worse from Microplastics you break even after 24 CPEs (using 4 per CPE). Josh Luthman Office: 937-552-2340 Direct: 937-552-2343 1100 Wayne St Suite
