3.6 Optional Antennas

3.6.1 Omni Antenna Description

In some applications, a higher gain Omni directional antenna may be required. An Omni-
directional antenna is an antenna system which radiates power uniformly in one plane with
a directive pattern shape in a perpendicular plane. This pattern is often described as
"donut shaped". Omni-directional antenna can be used to link multiple directional
antennas in outdoor point-to-multipoint communication.

Omni Directional antennas are a good choice if you need to mount your antenna on a
mast to increase its elevation. Please note that mounting brackets must also be
purchased. Also note that these antennas have an N style connector. Refer to section 3.9
to select the correct cable.
