Plug-and-Play Integration
Compatible with Wi-Fi 6E and Wi-Fi 7 radios, easily integrating with existing equipment without extensive infrastructure modifications.
Quick Deployment
Designed for rugged environments with minimal maintenance requirements, perfect for remote locations where frequent site visits are impractical.
Enhanced Customer Experience
Simple Installation Process
Enhanced Customer Experience
Reliable backhaul links are essential for delivering high-speed internet to end users. With this antenna, WISPs can provide a consistent, high-quality service, which translates to a better customer experience, reduced churn, and a stronger competitive position. This is particularly valuable in rural or underserved areas where reliable internet service is a unique advantage.
The antenna’s design allows for straightforward setup and alignment, reducing installation time. This is crucial for WISPs and operators who need to cover large or remote areas quickly, as it enables them to bring new links online in days rather than months.
Unlike licensed spectrum, which requires operators to pay annual fees, unlicensed Wi-Fi frequencies come with zero recurring spectrum costs. This makes it a budget-friendly option for WISPs, allowing them to invest more in expanding their network rather than paying for ongoing licensing fees.
Fast Deployment - Minimal Regulatory Delays
This antenna operates on unlicensed Wi-Fi frequencies (such as 5 GHz and 6 GHz), eliminating the need for lengthy licensing processes or spectrum allocation approvals. This allows network operators to set up new links and expand their networks much faster than if they were relying on licensed bands.
Long-Range Coverage
The high gain of this 0.9m antenna makes it ideal for creating reliable point-to-point (PTP) links over long distances, allowing WISPs and network operators to extend their coverage areas efficiently. This is especially beneficial in rural or underserved regions where other infrastructure options, like fiber, are cost-prohibitive.
Future-Proof Connectivity with Wideband Support
The antenna’s wideband compatibility across Wi-Fi 6E and Wi-Fi 7 standards means it can operate in both 5 GHz and 6 GHz bands, providing flexibility in spectrum use and future-proofing the network for newer, higher-capacity wireless technologies. This allows network operators to leverage the latest technology without frequent hardware upgrades.
Flexible Deployment Options
Supporting both Wi-Fi 6E and Wi-Fi 7 radios, this antenna offers WISPs flexibility to choose the best technology for their needs. It allows for use of 5 GHz or 6 GHz spectrum based on availability and interference in the area, enabling operators to adapt to changing conditions or regulatory updates in unlicensed spectrum.
Scalability for Network Expansion
As demand grows, network operators can use this antenna to extend connectivity to new areas without extensive infrastructure investments. It allows for quick, cost-effective setup of high-quality backhaul links, making it easier to scale and expand coverage to meet customer demand in new regions.
Cost Savings on Backhaul
By utilizing unlicensed bands, network operators can avoid the high costs associated with licensed spectrum, significantly reducing their capital and operational expenditures. This enables WISPs to deploy backhaul links at a fraction of the cost of licensed solutions, freeing up budget for network expansion and reaching more customers.

Scalability Without Additional Costs:
Using unlicensed bands allows operators to scale their networks as needed without the financial burden of additional licensing. This makes it easier and more affordable to expand coverage into new areas as demand grows.
Flexibility for Rapid Network Expansion:
Deploy in Remote or Hard-to-Reach Areas: Because the deployment is quick and doesn’t require licensing, WISPs can establish connectivity in remote or underserved areas without the usual regulatory hurdles. This allows them to bridge the digital divide by bringing high-speed internet to places where licensed options might not be feasible.
Ideal for Temporary or Rapid Expansion Projects:
For projects that require temporary connectivity or rapid rollout (e.g., construction sites, disaster recovery, event venues), this antenna’s fast deployment and unlicensed frequency support make it a perfect fit. WISPs can set up backhaul links quickly to meet immediate needs and take them down just as easily once the need has passed.
Low Maintenance, Low Overhead
Minimal Ongoing Costs: Once the antenna is installed, there are virtually no recurring costs aside from general maintenance. This is ideal for WISPs operating in areas where revenue might be lower, allowing them to maintain sustainable operations without additional financial strain.
High Return on Investment (ROI)
With fast deployment, zero recurring fees, and minimal maintenance, WISPs can maximize ROI. The reduced cost structure and quick revenue generation from new customers make this a financially viable solution for operators looking to grow their networks affordably.
Competitive Advantage for Budget-Conscious Expansion
For WISPs in competitive markets, the ability to deploy quickly without licensing costs enables them to capture new customers before competitors can. Fast deployment coupled with low operating expenses means they can deliver high-speed connectivity at affordable rates, enhancing customer satisfaction and retention.
Competitive Advantage in Unserved and Underserved Areas
For WISPs in competitive markets, the ability to deploy quickly without licensing costs enables them to capture new customers before competitors can. Fast deployment coupled with low operating expenses means they can deliver high-speed connectivity at affordable rates, enhancing customer satisfaction and retention.
