High gain directional antenna for outdoor long-range WiFi

　　1. Addressing the Pain Points: Why Outdoor WiFi Always "Can't Connect or Transmit"?

　　Whether you're a camping enthusiast, a remote farm user, or working on an outdoor construction site, outdoor WiFi often faces these challenging issues:

　　Long-Distance Transmission "Breakdown": The signal of an ordinary home antenna attenuates by more than half beyond 100 meters, and drops completely after 200 meters, making it impossible to cover large areas like farms and campsites.

　　Harsh Environments "Strike": Heavy rain, strong winds, and high temperatures can cause cracks in the antenna casing and short circuits, making internet connection problems common on rainy days.

　　Power Supply "Bottleneck": Without mains electricity, traditional antennas require extended cables to connect to a power source, making deployment impossible in camping or mountainous areas.

　　Obstruction and Interference: Trees, mountains, and construction cranes block the signal. Combined with electromagnetic interference from surrounding agricultural machinery and walkie-talkies, WiFi speeds plummet to a few KB/s, making even basic web pages inaccessible. The outdoor long-range WiFi high-gain directional antenna is designed to address these pain points. It breaks through the kilometer transmission limit with 15-30dB directional focusing, offers IP67/IP68 protection against extreme weather, and supports dual POE/solar power supply, allowing you to enjoy stable, high-speed WiFi outdoors within a range of 1-6 kilometers. II. Core Advantages: Exclusive for Outdoor Use, Solving WiFi Challenges in Three Dimensions

　　1. 15-30dB Directional Focusing: 1-6 km "Far, Fast"

　　This antenna overcomes the transmission bottleneck of conventional outdoor antennas (8-12dB gain). Utilizing dual-band parabolic focusing technology and an AI beam-tracking chip, it focuses on the 2.4GHz (strong penetration) and 5.8GHz (excellent interference rejection) frequency bands, improving signal coverage efficiency by 4-6 times compared to conventional antennas.

　　Ultra-Long-Range Coverage: In real-world unobstructed conditions, a 30dB high-gain model (such as the ZTE G5 Max) achieves a stable connection up to 6 km, maintaining speeds of 50-100Mbps, meeting the demands of 4K video streaming and multiple simultaneous internet access. Entry-level 15dB models (such as the TP-Link TL-ANT2414B) also offer 1-2 km coverage, making them suitable for small to medium-sized campsites and orchards.

　　Anti-Obstruction Capability: Optimized for use in areas with trees and low buildings (1-3 km). By focusing signal energy through a narrow beam (25°-60°), the directional antenna reduces attenuation due to obstruction by 70% compared to omnidirectional antennas. For example, at the edge of a farm forest, a standard antenna loses connection after 500 meters, while a directional antenna maintains a stable speed of over 20Mbps within a kilometer.

　　Optimized Anti-Interference: A built-in "intelligent spectrum filtering module" automatically blocks electromagnetic interference from equipment such as agricultural machinery and walkie-talkies. In complex electromagnetic environments like construction sites, WiFi signal stability is improved by 60%, with latency ≤ 80ms, meeting the needs of remote work and monitoring backhaul.

　　Key Parameters: Signal reception sensitivity as low as -112dBm (compared to approximately -98dBm for standard outdoor antennas), ensuring stable lock-on to WiFi sources even in mountainous areas with limited signal connectivity. 2. Industrial-Grade Environmental Protection: Withstands Heavy Rain and Strong Winds

　　Designed for extreme outdoor environments, the antenna features comprehensive reinforcement from materials to structure, ensuring stable year-round operation.

　　Ultra-High Protection Rating: The enclosure is fully sealed to IP67/IP68 (IP68 rated for immersion in water up to 1.5 meters for one hour). This protects the internal circuits from water and dust intrusion even in heavy rain, dust storms, and dense fog, eliminating the "rainy day network disconnection" issue often associated with conventional antennas.

　　Wind-Resistant Design: Constructed of an ABS + fiberglass composite material (impact strength ≥ 20kJ/m²), it withstands impacts from debris and branches. Its streamlined design (drag coefficient 50% lower than that of a pole antenna) allows it to withstand winds of 200km/h (a force 12 typhoon) and withstands distortion or damage even when mounted on a pole.

　　Wide Operating Temperature: -40°C to 70°C (no freezing at -30°C in northern China, and suitable for desert environments). (Not hot at 60°C) and can be used normally in plateaus, deserts, and extremely cold regions, without worrying about seasonal or regional restrictions.

　　3. Flexible Power Supply + Multi-Scenario Installation: Fast Installation Even Without Mains Power

　　To address the challenges of outdoor installation environments with no mains power and complex installation environments, we've designed a "wiring-free power supply + multiple mounting options" solution. One person can complete deployment in 30 minutes:

　　Dual Power Supply Modes:

　　POE Power Supply: Supports 802.3af/at standard POE protocols, transmitting both data and power over a single Ethernet cable, eliminating the need for additional power cables. When paired with a POE switch, it can provide power over distances up to 50 meters, making it suitable for deployments with Ethernet cables, such as construction sites and farms.

　　Solar Power Supply: A reserved 12V DC port allows direct connection to a 10W or higher solar panel (with battery storage), ensuring 24/7 uninterrupted Wi-Fi even in off-grid mountainous areas and at campsites.

　　Multiple Mounting Options: Supports pole mounting, wall mounting, and window mounting, adapting to various outdoor scenarios.

　　Pole Mount: Secure with a stainless steel mounting bracket at a distance of 50-150mm. Diameter poles (such as farm monitoring poles and camp lighting poles) are adjustable in height for easy alignment with WiFi sources.

　　Wall Mount: Secures to a wall or container with expansion screws. The bracket rotates 360° and tilts 180° for precise adjustment of the orientation angle.

　　Window Mount: Includes a strong suction cup for attaching to the glass of RVs and temporary shelters, making it suitable for mobile use (such as camping RVs). Removal leaves no residue.

　　Strong Compatibility: Standard dual N-type/RP-SMA interfaces are compatible with over 95% of outdoor APs and wireless routers (such as the Tenghu TH-QWA700 and Ubiquiti airMAX). No adapters are required; simply screw in and use. 3. 3-Step Installation and Tuning: Even Outdoor Beginners Can Do It

　　No specialized tools required; just follow these steps to achieve optimal signal coverage:

　　Locate the WiFi Source: Use the "WiFi Analyzer" app on your phone to find the direction and distance (e.g., "1.8 km due west") of the WiFi source (e.g., remote router, outdoor AP) at the installation location. Avoid metal obstacles (e.g., cranes, tin sheds), as metal can severely block WiFi signals.

　　Mounting and Powering: Choose a mounting method based on the scenario (e.g., window mounting for campsites, pole mounting for farms). Connect a POE cable or solar panel. Once powered on, the antenna indicator light will illuminate (a green light indicates a working power source).

　　Precise Angle Adjustment: Slowly rotate the antenna (±5° in pan, ±3° in tilt) while checking WiFi signal strength on your phone. Lock the angle when the signal is ≥-75dBm (green zone) and the speed is stable above 10Mbps. (In windy areas, add windbreaks.) Tip: If the WiFi source is more than 3 kilometers away, it is recommended to use an outdoor high-power AP (such as the Tenghu TH-QWA700) as a signal relay to further extend coverage.

　　4. Pitfalls to Avoid: Avoid 4 Types of Directional Antennas Not Suitable for Outdoor Use

　　Models with Exaggerated Gain: These are labeled "30dB High Gain," but actual speeds drop below 10Mbps within 1km. Check the "Signal Sensitivity (below -105dBm)" and "Measured Transmission Distance" to avoid misleading advertising.

　　Models with Low Protection Rating: These are only IP65 (sprayproof) waterproof and are susceptible to water damage in heavy rain. For outdoor use, choose fully sealed models with IP67 rating or higher, especially in rainy and dusty areas.

　　Single-Band Limited Models: These only support 2.4G or 5.8G. If you encounter severe 2.4G interference (such as at a construction site) or 5.8G obstruction (such as in a forest), you won't be able to switch to 2.4G. Choose a "2.4G/5.8G Dual-Band" model.

　　Models Require Mains Power: They don't support POE. Powered by solar or solar power, it only operates on mains electricity and cannot be used outdoors without a power grid. A qualified outdoor antenna must be able to operate independently of mains electricity.
