Q) Is there any mounting hardware for A5060 Large Shelf Antennas?   A) Unfortunately, A5060 Large Shelf Antennas does not have any available mounting hardware because they basically “sit” on a shelf or mount flush to a wall. If you would prefer to find a “mount-able” extra-large antenna you should look at the antenna below…   The green arrow points to RFMAX’s R9029-XL-12SSF antenna. This part is a 30 x 12.5 x 0.5 inch, 9 dBic antennae that can be mounted on a wall, mast, etc. It’s a low profile circularly polarized RFID antenna that operates in the FCC range...

Q) Can the RFMAX part # HDMNT-100MM be used with square posts?   A) Yes, you can use RFMAX’s HDMNT-100MM on square posts. There are three ways you can do this and it can be fairly simple to accomplish. There are three ways you can set up the bracket and it depends on whether the post is metal or wood. If the post is wooden, you can align the mounting holes vertically parallel to the post and drive lag bolts into the wooden beam. If the post is metal, you can drill and use a nut and bolt combination to...

In the past we had a client approach us looking for a good quality 2 meter and 70-centimeter mobile antenna that had decent VSWR on MURS (Multi-Use Radio Service) and GMRS (General Mobile Radio Service). They wanted an antenna that would have a bandwidth to cover both GRMS and MURS frequencies, so we have three recommendations. We recommend the WPD136M6C-001, the RBC150/450/758, and the NMO2/70B.   The RFMAX WPD136MC-001 is a multi-band heavy duty mobile antenna that operates throughout the VHF, UHF and P25 bands. It has an IP rating of 66 meaning that it can withstand high volumes of dust, and...

A client was recently looking for a new MIMO omnidirectional antenna for 3G/4G/LTE. He expressed his confusion and stated that he was originally looking at EAD’s LMO7270 but hoping to receive other ideas. So we come to the main point of this blog, do we have the EAD’s LMO7270 or an equivalent? Yes.   We offer multiple antennas for your dual 3G/4G/LTE MIMO needs, but the ones we recommend are RFMAX’s RBDM-44-SS-6 and RBMM-44-SS-6. RBDM-44-SS-6 is RFMAX’s direct mount MIMO 3G/4G/LTE/Diversity LTE cellular antenna. With dimensions of 7.9 in x 3.5 in x1.8 in, it’s a compact and ultra-rugged antenna designed...

Recently we had a client inquire about our ROSA-900-SNF antenna. The client wanted to know if we could make our ROSA-900-SNF with an N-male connector instead of an N-female connector. The answer to that is yes. we have the same antenna made with an N-Male connector with a part # ROSA-900-SNM.        The ROSA-900-SNM from RFMAX is also an outdoor rated, omnidirectional stick antenna except it’s made with an N-male connector instead of an N-female connector. This antenna is perfect for IoT usage in the US FCC 902-928 MHz range. It can be used indoors or outdoors and is...

I get many inquiries each month from customers looking for 50 ohm Coaxial cable assemblies for WiFi, cellular LTE, and 900 MHz modems, gateways, routers and radios with SMA connectors.  The problem is that there is often confusion concerning the terminology used to describe SMA vs. RP-SMA (reverse polarity SMA) RF coaxial connectors. The most common question that I get on this topic is: How do I tell the difference between SMA and RP-SMA connectors??? So, I thought that our blog would be a good place to clear up any confusion once and for all. Here are the facts... Standard SMA Male has...
