## **Description** 

This compact 2.4 GHz omni-directional “rubber duck” antenna provides broad coverage and 3 dBi gain. It is a coaxial sleeve design with an Omni-directional pattern. It is ideally suited for IEEE 802.11b/g wireless LAN and other WiFi applications. 

Only 5.4 inches long, this flexible antenna features a tilt-and-swivel connector, allowing it to be used vertically, at a right angle or any angle in between. Available with either a N-Male, SMA-Male, RP-SMA Plug or RP-SMA Plug connector, it is suitable as a replacement antenna for many access points and radios that are equipped with detachable antennas such as from D-Link[®] , Linksys[®] and others (Note: The HG2403RD is used as a “replacement” antenna rather than a “range extender” antenna. It should yield similar range to most radio’s stock antennas).
