RFShop 6dBi HaLow Omni Antenna, 902MHz to 928MHz, for WiFi HaLow and 900MHz ISM IoT
$99.00
Product description:
If your WiFi HaLow security cameras or IoT devices are dropping out behind walls, trees, sheds, or across a larger block, the fix is often at the hub, not the camera.
The RFShop 6dBi HaLow Omni Antenna is built for the 900MHz ISM band used by WiFi HaLow in Australia, helping you improve link reliability or extend coverage by upgrading the small stock antenna on your base station, hub, or gateway that has an external antenna port.
This is a proven 900MHz antenna. The band already exists, HaLow simply uses it, and this antenna performs strongly in that spectrum.
Why 900MHz HaLow helps
Compared to 2.4GHz and 5.8GHz, 900MHz radio waves generally propagate further and handle obstructions better, meaning more usable signal on the other side of walls and trees. That can translate to a more stable connection at the same distance, or useful performance at longer distances, depending on your environment.
Typical use case, WiFi HaLow CCTV kits
Many WiFi HaLow camera kits, including Swann HaLow systems such as MaxRanger4K, use a hub with an external antenna connector, often SMA or RP SMA. The cameras are fixed, but the hub can be upgraded.
Mount the antenna externally on a roof or mast, then run a low loss coax cable back to the hub. This setup is ideal for farms, acreage, workshops, sheds, driveways, gates, and large properties where you need coverage beyond the usual short range.
Key benefits
- Omni directional coverage for broad property coverage around the hub location
- Supports improved signal strength for better reliability, fewer dropouts
- Helps extend WiFi HaLow range for larger blocks and rural properties
- Designed for 900MHz ISM band IoT and WiFi HaLow deployments
- Ideal for hub and gateway upgrades with an external antenna port
Frequency note for Australia
Australia commonly uses 915MHz to 928MHz for WiFi HaLow, and this antenna covers that range. The antenna design can also support 902MHz to 928MHz, which is useful for broader 900MHz ISM applications.
Cable and installation recommendation
Most installs require a coax cable, because the best result is usually achieved by placing the antenna high and outside. Offer common lengths as quick select options such as 5m, 10m, 15m, with longer lengths available. Low loss cable matters, especially as cable length increases.
