  1. For PtP applications we have UltraHorn, if you are in a very noisy area, or then UltraDish 400 or 550, depending on the link budget you're running. We only manufacture antennas, so we can't recommend which radio you should use. But do ask on WISP Talk group on facebook, there are many knowledgeable people.. We are currently working on starting a distributor in Pakistan so we don't deliver there yet. The closest distributor of our stuff is probably this one.
  2. Hi Kumail, our antennas work in 5 GHz spectrum, even if you brought optical fiber all the way to the antenna, it would not improve anything. The TwistPort adaptors are connected directly to the antennas and they introduce virtually zero loss to the signal. You're better off using a radio with a SFP port.
  3. @i9nickWe will put the radiation patterns of all our horns in CSV for Google Network Planner format on our web in the following weeks. I will put the link here as well for reference. Stay tuned
  4. Hi Danny, thanks for the feedback, we're constantly collecting it and will consider it in future iterations! What do you mean by antenna radius? The distance an antenna can reach is determined by multiple variables and the result is always an information what signal strength (or MCS) you can work with, so the radius other manufacturers show is largely misleading and confusing.
  5. RF elements horns only work in 5 GHz frequency range
  6. The CC sectors will be available again soon. Keep following our social media channels and our webpage, you can't miss the updates.

    Not sure how to start using horns? Are the initial results with horns somewhat fuzzy? How to migrate to horns from scratch?

  9. Hi John. It's technically rather complicated thing to do, despite it seems trivial. But when we do bigger future updates, we'll definitely look into it. Thanks for the tip.
  10. Honza, unfortunately MikroTik is another manufacturer that is not cooperating with us - the data in the datasheet is not enough and they wouldn't give us what we need. The option you have is to use 'generic 802.11ac'.

  13. Unfortunately this product is discontinued for good, but you can easily get the Station box ALU. Regarding the customization, what exactly do you want to achieve? Cheers
  14. Yes, you must have received an old box - we have stopped the T-shirt promo at the beginning of 2020 and we are not running any at this moment.

  17. The adapter can work with dual slant regardless of the radio. But be sure to use the dual slant only with symmetrical horns or UltraHorn. It will not work well with asymmetrical horns.
  18. Hello, do you know what format should the .csv data have? I mean the structure of the data inside the .csv file. Converting the .ant to .csv is possible, the question is, in what format Google expects the data to be.
  19. Hello, no you don't need any bracket, the radio can be attached to this antenna by default.

    Path Loss

    What is Path Loss and why should you care? If you're a WISP, you definitely want to know how it works - check out our latest #InsideWireless episode for more details!

    === The timezone of webinar is GMT - UK time === In this webinar jointly organized with MS Distribution, UK, we will talk about the most important antenna parameter for WISP networks. No, it's not side lobe level, or front to back ratio. It's Beam Efficiency. Never heard of it? Join our webinar to learn more.
