ZoomAir Antennas and Options

ZoomAir Wireless Network Antennas increase the range of the ZoomAir model 4105 wireless network interface card or a ZoomAir Hardware Access Point. Three antenna models are available to meet specific wireless networking installation needs.

Model #98110-02 Dipole Antenna

The ZoomAir 2.2 dBi Dipole Antenna Model #98110-02 is supplied as standard equipment with the ZoomAir Wireless Network Interface Card Model #4105 and the ZoomAir Hardware Access Point. It attaches directly to each device's built-in antenna jack. The ZoomAir Dipole Antenna's radiation pattern is omni-directional: it transmits and receives signals equally well in all directions. When compared with a ZoomAir Model #4100 NICs' integrated antenna, the ZoomAir Dipole typically provides more uniform coverage and up to 30% greater range.

Model #98110-02 Specifications
Frequency range 2.4-2.483 GHz
Gain1 2.2 dBi
Polarization2 Linear
Nominal impedance 50 ohms
Connector Right angle reverse polarity SMA male (plug)
Dimensions 3.25"(8.2cm) length; 9/32"(.7cm) diameter
Weight <0.5 oz(<14gm)
Omni-Directional to 300 ft. (90m) in a typical partitioned office environment
or 1000 ft. (300m) with an unobstructed line of sight at 2Mbps

Model #98110-04 Omni-Directional Antenna

The ZoomAir 4.0 dBi Omni-Directional Antenna Model #98110-04 can be mounted on a ceiling for use as an omni-directional antenna, or mounted on a wall to provide increased range in a single direction. The antenna attaches to the ZoomAir Model #4105 Wireless Network Interface Card or a ZoomAir Hardware Access Point through a 1-meter or 3-meter low-loss coaxial cable (sold separately). Cable length may be extended to a recommended maximum of 6 meters by attaching additional cable segments using a supplied adapter. The ZoomAir Omni-Directional Antenna package includes mounting and positioning hardware.

Model #98110-04 Specifications
Frequency range 2.4-2.484 GHz
Gain1 4.0 dBic (circular)
3 dB beamwidth (elevation) 220¡ (typical)
Polarization3 Right-hand circular
Nominal impedance 50 ohms
Connector Reverse polarity SMA female (jack)
Dimensions 3"W x 3"H x 1.5"D
(7.6cm W x 7.6cm H x 3.8cm D)
Weight 3.0 oz (85gm)
Ceiling mounted for a radius coverage of 380ft (115m) in a typical partitioned office or 1500ft (455m) in an unobstructed environment at 2 Mbps

Point-to-point to 450 ft (135m) in a typical partitioned office or 1500 ft (455m) with an unobstructed line of sight at 2 Mbps

Model 98110-13 Directional Antenna

A range of one mile can be achieved if a clear line of sight is established between two ZoomAir 13.0 dBi Directional Antennas Model 98110-13. The units are designed for both indoor and outdoor use. Connection is made through a 1-meter or 3-meter low-loss coaxial cable (sold separately). Cable length may be extended to a recommended maximum of 6 meters by attaching additional cable segments using a supplied adapter. Mounting and positioning hardware is included.

Model #98110-13 Specifications
Frequency range 2.3-2.500 GHz
Gain1 13.0 dBi
Polarization2 Linear
Azimuth & elev beamwidth 35¡
Nominal impedance 50 ohms
Lightning protection DC grounded
Connector Reverse polarity SMA female (jack)
Dimensions 8.7"W x 7.9"H x 1.4"D
(22.1cm W x 20.1cm H x 3.6cm D)
Weight 0.77 lb (0.35kg)

up to 1 mile (1.6km) point-to-point unobstructed line of sight at 2 MBps

1 Gain - Decibel (dBi or dBic for circular) expression for the ratio of the radiation intensity in a given direction relative to a theoretical isotropic (omni-directional) radiator.

2 Polarization: Linear - A pattern requiring antennas to be placed in the same orientation with close attention to polarization alignment angle (alignment should be within ± 5¡ for optimum performance).

3 Polarization: Right-hand circular - A pattern that reduces the effects of reflections in a typical indoor environment providing improved coverage for access point use.

4 Azimuth - The radiation intensity pattern located in the horizontal plane.
