Yagi Directional Antenna 3G/4G/LTE 9dBi 806MHz-960MHz and 1.7-2.5GHz 2FT Cable w/ 2FT SMA Male Cable to TS-9 Adapter - Cell Phone Signal Log Periodic Cellular - Tupavco TP514

I purchased this single Tupavco TP514 Yagi Directional Antenna 3G/4G/LTE 9dBi 800MHz-960MHz several months ago and have been very pleased with its performance. It is mounted on a discarded satellite dish mast (the short one that has a "side-of-the-house" mounting plate for the mast that extends from the plate horizontally, at a slight upward angle, then bends to a short vertical mast) on the gable end of my house at the roof fascia. This directional antenna fit perfectly to this type mast. The Tupavco antenna has a direct line of sight to our ATT antenna, which is a couple of miles from our home in a rural setting. I was getting 1-2 (variable signal strength) bars on my ATT Nighthawk Hotspot Router from inside my home, making my ATT internet service not very dependable, but now I am getting a consistent 4 bars signal strength. It has made a world of difference in the stability and strength of the signal my Hotspot Router now receives. The hardest part of installing it was not mounting and aiming the antenna (easy!), but obtaining the specific connectors to transition from this Tupavco directional antenna to the RG6 cable then back to the Nighthawk Hotspot antenna connections. There were no instructions for these connectors with this antenna. The difficulty running the cable through the attic/ceiling/wall will vary per your home, so plan ahead and make sure there is a feasible route to run the cable from outside your home, which probably shouldn't be more than 50 feet (increasing signal loss will occur for longer cable runs). But, it works now and I am pleased with the steady increase in signal strength I am receiving with this Tupavco directional antenna. I don't see a need to install a second unit (as some have done), in my situation, as my signal strength is quite adequate with only one Tupavco unit. Had the distance to the ATT antenna been further, I probably would have tried two. Yes, I am very pleased with this antenna's performance vs. the price I paid for it!

Antenna looks fine, the VSWR was tested by using the Agilent's VNA and did show excellent results over 800...2400MHz.

Installed on my Helium miner. Aimed the antenna on a 20' mast to the west to maximize mining/witnesses. After 2 weeks, 90% of the witnesses were behind the antenna plane from the N/S/E. I know the way the system works, but the fact that almost all of the other beacons picked up were from behind is strange. Overall the omnidirectional antenna I had before was better.

I use this on a cell repeater. This antenna worked only as good as the Omni directional antenna I have. I suspect it is directional enough that it requires considerable effort to align properly. With no signal strength meter (for cell frequencies) it is difficult to aim this antenna successfully.

Not much to say it’s very simple, boosted our speeds and its holding up well outside. So it does everything it’s supposed to for pretty cheap.

When installed correctly, this antenna has excellent performance. I was able to increase my 4G/LTE bandwidth from less than 2 Mbps to 30 Mbps at a distance of over 9 km. For best results, use a modem with two antenna connectors and install two antennas perpendicular to each other. I used a Huawei E5573s-606, as that is what my carrier sells.It is very important to minimize the cable length between the antennas and the modem. The signal loss over coax cable is very significant. I used the Mikrotik hEX and an outdoor enclosure to bring the modem as close as possible to the antennas. I can then transmit 100% of the bandwidth with 0% capacity loss over a distance of 300' using regular Cat5E cable.

This antenna worked for about two months, improved signal from -89dBm with an omni to -79dBm with two of these antennas pointed at the closest at&t tower. Over the course of the last two months however the signal has steadily been getting worse, as has my internet quality. I figured it was the modem, so I replaced that. Then I figured it was the antenna cables, and I replaced them. Finally I decided to replace the antennas, and my signal with a couple of different antennas is down to -73dBm, better than even when these antennas were brand new!I've yet to take apart the antenna itself, but I expect that moisture has gotten inside and caused corrosion on the poorly made internal connections. I recommend staying away from these no-name brands, stick with a name brand if your livelihood or kids school relies on this for your rural internet solution.

I live in a rural area and the only internet available is through a 4G cellular service. I use two of these attached to my 4G modem and it has drastically improved the reliability and speed of my connection compared to the internal antennas.

No megusta lopoco de cable que trai

Mmm difícil dar.una reseña ya que aún no la tengo en uso, no la eh instalado pero me puedo quejar del que no cuenta con un cable mas largo, ahora tengo que conseguir o hacer uno para conectar la antena al módem, actualizaré cuando la haya probado.

tengan cuidado al comprar esta antena, el conector es RP-SMA hembra y se anuncia de manera erronea como SMA hembra

Si funciona, lo use en un módem Huawei para captar mejor señal 4g, mejora la calidad de la señal y la mantiene estable pero si tienes que saber donde esta la antena de tu ciudad, el problema fue el cable tan corto que tiene.
