Frequently asked questions
What frequency range do NP66 antennas cover?
NP66 antennas operate in the extended 5.9–7.2 GHz range, improving spectrum use in highly congested areas.
What gain do NP66 antennas offer?
The NP66 offers Low 35 / Mid 37 / High 39 dBi gain with a high-efficiency parabolic design for very long-haul links.
What connector do NP66 antennas use?
They use low-loss N-female connectors and ship with N–SMA jumpers compatible with Mimosa, Cambium, and Ubiquiti radios.
Are they suitable for long-distance links?
Yes. NP66 antennas are designed for PtP links up to 100 km, especially with high-sensitivity radios and efficient modulation.
What is the typical VSWR?
Per datasheet, VSWR HPOL stays < 2.0 across the operating band.
What polarization do they support?
NP66 antennas use dual-slant ±45° polarization, ideal for MIMO 2×2 efficiency in backhaul environments.
What materials are used? Are they weatherproof?
Yes. They use treated aluminum with anti-corrosion coating and a fiberglass radome resistant to UV and rain.
Can they be used with 6 GHz Wi‑Fi 6E or licensed LTE radios?
Yes. They work with radios in the upper 6 GHz band, including Wi‑Fi 6E backhaul, LTE-LAA, and custom solutions.
What is the recommended minimum link distance?
They can work on short hops, but a minimum of about 3 km is recommended to avoid overpower and protect the Fresnel zone.
Is a special tower or mast required?
Mount NP66 antennas on 2-inch steel masts or towers at least 6 m high, with precise aiming and firm anchoring.
What accessories can I use?
You can add NetPoint RF shields, wind-load radomes where needed, and the SANP stabilizer arm for more professional installs.
