Description

The Cisco Aironet AIR-ANT2513P4M-NS is a four-port, dual-band directional patch array antenna covering the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz Wi-Fi bands. It suits dual-band directional coverage for indoor and outdoor deployments with supported Cisco Aironet access points, mounted on a wall, ceiling or pole/mast.

It delivers 13 dBi peak gain on both bands across four 4x4 MIMO ports with N-type female bulkhead connectors. The antenna is polarization-diverse, with ports A and C vertical and ports B and D horizontal. Beamwidth is 33 degrees in elevation and 31 degrees in azimuth at 2.4 GHz, and 27 degrees in elevation and 31 degrees in azimuth at 5 GHz. It is IP67 rated, operates from -40 to 85 C and withstands operational winds of 100 MPH. The -NS variant is self-identifying: a built-in EEPROM lets supported Cisco access points detect the antenna type and gain automatically.

It is designed for use with Cisco Aironet 3702P and 1570 series access points. Four low-loss cables are required, such as AIR-CAB005LL-R-N= (5 ft, RP-TNC to N-type) for the AP3702P, or AIR-CAB005LL-N= and AIR-CAB010LL-N= (5 ft and 10 ft, N-type) for the AP1570. Confirm compatibility against the datasheet of the specific access point.

FAQs

Q: What does the -NS suffix mean?
A: The -NS variant is self-identifying. A built-in EEPROM lets supported Cisco access points detect the antenna type and gain automatically, so it can be configured in the wireless controller.

Q: Does this antenna need power?
A: No. It is a passive antenna and needs no power. The self-identifying EEPROM is read by the connected access point.

Q: Which access points does it work with?
A: It is designed for Cisco Aironet 3702P and 1570 series access points. Check the datasheet of your specific access point before ordering.

Q: Which cables do I need to connect it?
A: Four low-loss cables are required. Examples are AIR-CAB005LL-R-N= (5 ft, RP-TNC to N-type) for the AP3702P, or AIR-CAB005LL-N= and AIR-CAB010LL-N= (5 ft and 10 ft, N-type) for the AP1570.

Q: Which ports carry which polarization?
A: Ports A and C are vertically polarized and ports B and D are horizontally polarized, giving polarization diversity across the four 4x4 MIMO ports.

Q: Can it be mounted outdoors?
A: Yes. It is IP67 rated, operates from -40 to 85 C and withstands operational winds of 100 MPH. It mounts to a wall, ceiling or pole/mast up to 5 inches (12.7 cm) in diameter.
