How to install Cisco Outdoor 5dBi Omni Antenna for 863-928 MHz WPAN, LoRaWan, and ISM

  • Identify a mounting location with clear line-of-sight and minimal obstructions in the 863–928 MHz band to maximize coverage for LoRaWAN and WPAN devices.
  • Prepare the mounting surface and hardware. Use a suitable pole or mast and the provided clamps or brackets, ensuring the installation site is secure and compliant with local regulations.
  • Attach the antenna to the mast or pole following the manufacturer’s torque guidelines for the mounting hardware. Ensure the antenna is oriented vertically to maintain the omni-directional pattern.
  • Connect the N-Type RF cable assembly from your gateway, radio, or network device to the antenna’s N-Type connector. Use a high-quality coax with minimal loss to preserve signal integrity.
  • Secure any cables to prevent movement from wind or vibration, and apply weatherproofing where appropriate to protect connections from moisture and temperature changes.
  • Power up your network equipment and verify link quality, RSSI, and device uplink performance. Adjust the mounting height or position if necessary to improve signal coverage in target areas.

Frequently asked questions

  • Q: What devices is this antenna compatible with? A: It is designed for 863–928 MHz WPAN, LoRaWAN, and ISM networks and connects via an N-Type connector to radios, gateways, or routers that operate in this frequency range.
  • Q: What gain does the antenna provide? A: The antenna offers a nominal gain of approximately 5.6 dBi, delivering improved coverage and performance for outdoor LoRaWAN and WPAN deployments.
  • Q: Can I mount this antenna on a wall? A: This model is optimized for pole or mast mounting. Wall mounting is not its primary design, but with suitable brackets it can be adapted if the mounting surface and RF path permit it.
  • Q: Is the antenna weatherproof? A: Yes, the outdoor-rated design is built to withstand typical weather conditions, including rain and sun exposure, making it suitable for long-term outdoor use.
  • Q: Do I need a special cable or adapter? A: Use a quality RF coaxial cable compatible with N-Type connectors. Keep cable runs as short as feasible to minimize loss, and use weatherproof connectors where exposed to the elements.
  • Q: Will this antenna increase my LoRaWAN gateway range? A: In suitable environments, a higher-gain omni-directional antenna can extend uplink reliability and coverage by increasing effective radiated power and improving link budgets for distant nodes.
