Swivel (Rubber) Antenna, WiFi 2.4GHz, Omni Radiation, 4dBi Gain with RP TNC Male Connector
Standard 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 focused 4 dBi gain, this antenna utilizes an optimized internal radiating element that flattens the vertical signal beamwidth. This projects RF energy further along the horizontal plane to maximize range, mitigate multi-path interference, and boost throughput. Its true omnidirectional (360°) radiation pattern ensures uniform peripheral coverage, making it an ideal choice for enterprise access points, industrial wireless clients, and legacy routing hardware.
Measuring 6 inches in length, this 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 Reverse Polarity TNC (RP-TNC) Male connector—featuring heavy-duty threads and a secure mating shell, but with a female socket contact instead of a male pin. This industrial-grade interface is a standard for enterprise wireless infrastructure, ensuring a highly secure, vibration-proof connection with enterprise-class Wi-Fi routers, access points, and mobile communication hubs.
