RD2458-5 **Tri-Band 2.4, 5.3, 5.8 GHz Antenna** 

Innovative **Technology** for a **Connected** World 

The tri-band RD2458-5 series of antennas are high-gain (3 dB @ 2.4 GHz and 5 dBi @ 5 GHz) omnidirectional antennas designed for indoor use. Rugged and reliable, the heavy duty knuckle of the antenna gives angular detents at 0, 45, and 90°. The antenna features a 360° horizontal transmission pattern and a 90° vertical transmission pattern. These antennas offer a choice of connector options for maximum design flexibility (SMA, RPSMA, RPTNC and N male). 

## FEATURES 

- Tri-band operation: 2.4 GHz, 5.3 GHz, 5.8 GHz 

- 0, 45, and 90° knuckle detents (N-male not applicable) 

- Extends range of wireless access points or wireless bridges 

## APPLICATIONS 

   - 802.11a/b/g wireless equipment 

   - OEM equipment 

   - Amplified antennas 

   - 802.11a/b/g applications 

   - WiMAX 

- Available in SMA, RPSMA, RPTNC and N-male connector versions
