Product Description

From the Manufacturer

Hawking's Hi-Gain 14dBi Outdoor Directional Antenna Kit will extend Your Wireless Range by up to 1.5 miles. (Note: Distance may vary in different operating environment.) The HAO14SDP Hi-Gain 14 dBi Outdoor Directional Antenna Kit is a heavy duty, weather proof, high powered antenna for extending the range of your existing wireless 802.11 b or 802.11g WiFi devices. Whether your application requires extending a wireless signal from on building to another or simply from one end of the house to another end, the Hi-Gain 14dBi is the perfect solution. The power rating of WiFi antennas is measured in terms of decibels (dBi). The HAO14SDP boots the antenna power of standard antennas from a minimal 2dBi to a staggering 14dBi. The Hi-Gain Directional technology concentrates your wireless signal directly towards the wireless source from your network. This results in a significantly increased in wireless distance. When paired with another Hi-Gain 14dBi antenna, you may extend your distance by up to 1.5 miles. Installation of the HAO14SDP is simple. It is compatilbe with most wireless devices (access points, routers, bridges, and network adapters) on the market with removable antennas. The Hawking antenna comes equipped with N-Type, RP-SMA and RP-TNC connectors to support a wide range of Wireless device. Note: An outdoor low loss antenna cable (Hawking Model# HNC10N or HNC30N) is required for outdoor installation and must be purchased separately. Depending on your set up, a shorter cable is recommended for minimal cable loss due to cable length."

5.0 out of 5 stars This antenna helped our network immensely., June 13, 2009

I live on a 40-acre property with three buildings, and we wanted all three to be able to share one network. We tried all kinds of setups, but the third building never had a reliable connection. So I ordered two of these, and put one up in the office where my computers are. The signal now reaches the farthest building and beyond, and their signal strength went from fair/poor/not even working to excellent! We didn't even need to set up the second antenna. I'm very pleased with this product!

I have this setup on my network over a distance of about 1/2 mile at both ends. I ended up adding an amplifier on both ends du to the unique situation I have here. These are running 24/7 and I have had no problems connecting between the two, even in high winds I still stay connected.

Highly recommend if you want to set up a wireless link where running a cable is not feasible.

I'm guessing my two antennas are about 200ft apart. One is outdoors and one is indoor. Just put it to work and I'm super excited. I ended up getting (all from Hawking): 1 HWREG1 Wireless G Range Extender on the receiving end (not sure if this was needed, but got one just in case), 2 HiGain Directional Antenna, indoor/outdoor, 14dBi HAO14SDP and 2 HAC10N 10-Feet Outdoor Antenna Cable. Ended up being a bit more expensive than I thought. Also paid $60 to a handyman to go up on the roof to install one of the antennas and drill a hole through the wall for the cable to get to the router. Just got it to work and it's working great, almost same speed as I get on the other end. I'll update this review with its performance over time.
