BreezeCOM Antennas and Cables - USA 

BreezeNET PRO.11 Products are supplied in two models: Integrated antennas and Detached antennas. Both are identical except for their antennas.

 

Omni-2

The standard modles are supplied with two integral 2 dBi omni-directional antennas. These antennas are intended for indoor installations with short to medium distances between sites.

 

"D" models are supplied with two customized female connectors for use with the following range of external antennas:

- 6 dBi omni-directional transmit/receive antenna.
- 7.2 dBi omni-directional transmit/receive antenna.
- 8.5 dBi uni-directional transmit/receive antenna.
- 11 dBi uni-directional transmit/receive antenna.
- 12 dBi uni-directional transmit/receive antenna.
- 13 dBi uni-directional transmit/receive antenna.
- 16 dBi uni-directional transmit/receive antenna.
- 18 dBi uni-directional transmit/receive antenna.
- 24 dBi uni-directional transmit/receive antenna.

Omni-6

These 6 dBi antennas are intended for indoor installation for extended range and improved performance. The kit includes one omni-directional 6dBi transmit/receive antenna together with 4 ft of RG-58 cable.

 

Omni-7.2

The Omni 7.2 dBi antennas are ideal for establishing total 360° coverage for outdoor mulitpoint links. The kid includes a transmit/receive 7.2 dBi antenna, mounting hardware, and 20 ft of LMR-600 cable.

 

Uni-8.5

The 8.5 dBi antenna has a wide beam width (75 degrees horizontal, 50 degrees vertical) and is intended for both indoor and outdoor installations for short to medium distances between sites. The set includes a Transmit/Receive 8.5dBi directional antenna with 8 ft of RG-58 cable.

 

Extension Cables

The cables supplied with the antenna sets are generally sufficient for most window or wall antenna installations.
Extension cables of 10, 20, 30, and 50 ft are available.

PROFESSIONAL INSTALLERS ONLY

Detached antennas, whether installed indoors or out, are to be installed ONLY by experienced antenna installers that are familiar with local buildings and safety codes, and wherever necessary are licensed by appropriate government regulators. Failure to do so may void the BreezeNET PRO.11 Product Warranty and will certainly expose the end user to legal and financial liabilities. BreezeCOM and its resellers or distributors are not liable for injury, damage or violation of government regulations associated with the installation of detached antennas.

Rooftop Installations

Rooftop antenna installations are extremely dangerous and incorrect installation may result in death, injury or damage. Rooftop installations must be performed by professional antenna installers only.

Rooftop installations provide several advantages:

They generally increase the range of the antenna.
There are likely to be less obstacles in the path.
Height above the ground gives improved performance.
Multipath problems resulting from reflections from buildings, trees and variations in terrain are reduced to a minimum.

 

Uni-11

The 11 dBi antenna is suited for ISPs, school districts, and campus area networks requiring wide dispersion patterns. The kit includes a transmit/receive antenna together with 30 ft of LMR-400 cable.

 

Uni-12

The 12 dBi antenna has a medium beam width of 22 degrees and is intended for outdoor installations with medium distances between sites. It is supplied as a single uni-directional 12 dBi transmit/receive antenna together with 20 ft of RG-8 cable.

 

Uni-13

The 13 dBi antenna is ideal for medium range outdoor multipoint links. The set includes a transmit/receive 13 dBi directional antenna with 20 ft of LMR-400 cable.

 

Uni-16

The 16 dBi is suited for medium to long range outdoor multipoint links requiring compact form factors. The kit comes standard witha 16 dBi antenna together with 30 ft of LMR-400 cable.

 

Uni-18

The 18 dBi antenna has a narrow beamwidth (14 degrees) which increases the sensitivity to inaccurate alignment, but decreases the influence of multipath propagation (fading). It is intended for outdoor installations over medium to long distances. It is probably the best choice for most medium to long range applications.
The 18 dBi antenna is supplied as a single uni-directional 18 dBi transmit/receive antenna together with 30 ft of RG-8 cable.

 

Uni-24

The 24 dBi antenna has a narrow beam width (7.5 degrees) which increases the sensitivity to alignment inaccuracy but decreases the influence of multipath propagation (fading). It is intended for outdoor installations over large distances and for this reason is supplied with long cables for higher rooftop installations.. The antenna is supplied as a single uni-directional 24 dBi transmit/receive antenna together with 50 ft. of RG-8 cable.

 

Low Noise Amplifier (LNA)

When long cables are used between antennas and unit, an optional Low Noise Amplifier can be added to amplify the received signal. LNA-10 is a high performance, low noise preamplifier designed to enhance fringe area reception and provide additional gain when using long cable runs.

 

Extension Cables

Extension cables of 10, 20, 30, 50, 70, and 100 ft are available.

Antenna Selection Guide

The following guidelines will help you select the correct BreezeCOM antennas for your BreezeNET PRO.11 D-model wireless bridge or access point.

Choose the type of antenna needed for the specific application - omni-directional or uni-directional.
Choose the gain of the antenna/s using the BreezeNET PRO.11 Range Table, taking into account:

- The distance between the sites.
- The location of the antenna (window or roof).

This determines the length of cable required from the WB-10D to the antenna.
After you have selected the correct antenna for your application, determine the data rate from the following table:
