Description

The Cisco Aironet AIR-ANT2485P-R is a single-patch directional antenna for the 2.4 GHz band, intended for wireless LAN deployments where focused coverage is needed from a wall or pole mount. It suits corridors, open areas and point-to-area links and can be installed indoors or outdoors.

It delivers 8.5 dBi of peak gain across 2400 to 2484 MHz with linear, vertical polarisation and a nominal impedance of 50 Ohms. Beamwidth is 56 degrees in the E-plane and 66 degrees in the H-plane, with a 20 dB front-to-back ratio. A 36 inch (91.4 cm) plenum-rated cable is attached and ends in an RP-TNC connector, and the antenna body is 5.1 inches (12.9 cm) long. For outdoor use, the orientation arrow on the back must point up.

It is designed for Cisco Aironet 2.4 GHz access points and bridges that use RP-TNC antenna connectors, such as the AIR-AP1242AG-A-K9. It is a passive antenna and needs no power.
