EDA LoRa 8dBi Antenna Bundle with Antenna Base 863~870 MHz – EU868

Description The EDA LoRa 8dBi Antenna Bundle with Antenna Base 863~870 MHz – EU868 is a high-performance indoor/outdoor antenna designed to be deployed for better range.  The coverage that this antenna provides makes it ideal for deployment outdoors in a high-altitude spot within the outskirts of an urban area or a small village, where there is a very low number of other buildings and people in general. In such a scenario it is likely that the signal will be able to cover a longer distance until it reaches the intended recipient of the transmission. If you need the transmission signal to reach the opposite side of the urban area or other near enough located villages or cities, it is likely that this antenna will provide you with the needed coverage.     As this is a higher range dBi antenna, it is designed to provide better, fuller, and more stable coverage for devices that are situated far away from it, as opposed to a lower dBi antenna, which would be able to do the same for devices that are situated close to its location. The general logic related to the difference between a higher dBi antenna and a lower dBi antenna is best understood by viewing the picture below.     The exact shape of coverage for antennas, in general, resembles that of a doughnut, while the exact radiation pattern for the currently discussed 8dBi antenna can be viewed in the picture below.     Overall the specs of this particular antenna are a great fit for use with a Helium hotspot, mostly because you will be able to reach a great number of witnesses in areas that are far away, such as villages or cities, especially if you manage to install it high and close to the top of a building, where it would have a direct line of sight towards the very slightly visible buildings in the far away distance. An example of a good deployment of such an antenna in relation to other Helium hotspots nearby can be seen in the image below.       EDA LoRa 8dBi Antenna 863~870 MHz – EU868 Product Feature Frequency Range: 863~870 MHz Max Gain: 8.0 dBi VSWR: ≤ 2.0 High efficiency Vertically polarized dipole Easy to mount Color: White   Product Inclusions 1 x EDA LoRa 8dBi Antenna 863~870 MHz – EU868 Related
