Frequently Asked Questions

What devices is this 5.8GHz antenna compatible with?

This antenna is compatible with any wireless device operating in the 5GHz ISM band (5000-6000MHz) that has a matching RP-SMA female or SMA female jack. This includes most modern dual-band Wi-Fi routers, access points, some USB Wi-Fi adapters, and embedded IoT modules equipped with the appropriate connector. Always verify your device's connector type (RP-SMA vs. SMA) and frequency support before installation.

What is the difference between RP-SMA and SMA connectors?

The key difference is the gender of the center pin. A standard SMA male connector has a center pin, while an RP-SMA (Reverse Polarity SMA) male connector has a center hole. This antenna is a male connector that can mate with either an RP-SMA female (which has a center pin) or an SMA female (which has a center hole). This dual compatibility makes it versatile for various hardware. Always match the connector polarity to avoid damage.

How do I install this micro antenna on my router?

First, power off your router. Identify the existing antenna(s), which typically thread onto RP-SMA or SMA jacks on the chassis. Unscrew the old antenna by turning it counter-clockwise. Align the new antenna's connector threads with the router's jack and screw it on clockwise until hand-tight. Avoid over-tightening. Ensure the connection is secure for optimal performance, then power the router back on. The small form factor should not interfere with placement.
