Swivel (Rubber) Antenna, WiFi 2.4+5.XGHz, Omni Radiation, 2/2dBi Gain with RP SMA Male Connector
Compact Swivel "Rubber Duck" Dual-Band Wi-Fi Solution
The commercial-grade dual-band flexible rubber duck antenna is engineered to deliver reliable wireless networking across both legacy 2.4 GHz and high-speed 5.X GHz frequency spectrums. Providing a balanced 2/2 dBi gain profile, this antenna delivers an optimal radiation pattern for close-to-medium-range deployments where broad vertical and horizontal signal spread is necessary. Its true omnidirectional (360°) radiation pattern ensures uniform peripheral coverage, making it an excellent choice for compact dual-band routers, mesh nodes, client devices, and localized IoT gateways.
Measuring 4-1/4 inches in length, this highly compact antenna features a ruggedized, flexible thermoplastic (rubber) radome that protects the internal dual-resonant radiating elements 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 dual-band Wi-Fi access points and network interface cards on the market.
