RFI 7.5dBi Folding Antenna Kit - Caravan/Marine

Key Features

• Manufactured by internationally renown antenna manufacturer, RFI, the CD7197 is a durable and weather resistant antenna

• Consistently achieves an impressive gain across all Australian mobile networks

• White construction blends in with your caravan or motor-home

• At 114cm, it's the ideal length for practical mounting and storage

• The kit includes a solid white nylon swivelling ratchet mount and 13mm chrome adaptor, allowing easy attachment and removal of the high gain antenna

• The ratchet mount folds 180 degrees flat for minimal height when travelling

• A stainless steel steel antenna holder (supplied with this kit) can be mounted on the side of the van for antenna support when travelling.

Usage

• As a rule of thumb: the higher the dBi, the flatter the angle the antenna can receive signal

• In hilly areas, cell towers are usually located at the peak of the hill, and if you've got a very high gain antenna (like 9dBi) chances are the antenna won't have a tall enough angle to receive from the tower

• The CD7197's 7.5dBi gain is an excellent compromise between high/low gain, making it the ideal antenna if you live or work in remote areas - low enough to work when you're in town and travelling through hilly areas, but truly comes to life when out in remote and flat areas.
