Description

Paradar 8.5dBi, long range for harsh outdoor use – 868Mhz tuned antenna for HNT and LoRa,
High quality low-SWR tuned antenna with N-female connector. Aviation-quality components provide excellent range for HNT (Helium) hotspots, as well as for drone and glider (FLARM or OGN) applications. Will work well with any unlicensed 868Mhz-band transmitter or receiver, with the appropriate cable.

Installation notes

  • Must be mounted vertically: the two drain slots either side of the connector must point downwards. Either tape from from below the cable connector to 10mm above these slots, moving the bracket as needed, or tape from below the cable connector to 5mm below these slots, leaving them clear for water to drain.
  • Ensure all outdoor connectors are taped with self-amalgamating tape (not electrical tape)! Water will seep through screw threads over time, and will permeate your cable and antenna via the exposed connectors, causing performance to mysteriously drop some days or weeks after installation. Click here to add some to your cart.
