Swivel (Rubber) Antenna, WiFi 2.4GHz, Omni Radiation, 2dBi Gain with RP SMA Male Connector
Compact Swivel "Rubber Duck" 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi Solution
The commercial-grade 2.4 GHz flexible rubber duck antenna is engineered to deliver reliable wireless networking across the standard 2.4 GHz ISM frequency spectrum. Providing a balanced 2 dBi gain profile, this antenna delivers a broad vertical and horizontal signal spread, making it highly effective for close-to-medium-range deployments. Its true omnidirectional (360°) radiation pattern ensures uniform peripheral coverage, maximizing connection stability for compact routers, client terminals, and localized IoT deployments where space is limited.
Measuring 4 inches in length, this highly compact antenna features a ruggedized, flexible thermoplastic (rubber) radome that protects the internal components from impact and harsh physical environments. It is equipped with an integrated hinged swivel base, allowing the antenna to tilt (90°) and rotate (360°). This mechanical flexibility enables field technicians to position the antenna vertically regardless of the orientation of the host device's chassis, optimizing signal polarization and bypassing nearby physical obstructions. The base terminates in a standard Reverse Polarity SMA (RP-SMA) Male connector—featuring standard external threads but a female socket contact instead of a male pin. This specific connector style complies with standard FCC regulations for consumer and commercial wireless networking equipment, making it directly compatible with most standard Wi-Fi routers, access points, and PCI-e network cards on the market.
