Wireless Antennas

Wireless antennas are perfect for you when you are looking to connect security camera systems across a property or link a camera farther away. These devices effectively enable a stable security camera connection. Each of these devices is able to send an isolated signal over a larger area, even those with weaker cellular service. Once connected and configured, see the range of your system increase overall or in a specific direction, depending on the device. Furthermore, these devices are easy to implement onto any particular security camera system for a quick response.  

Ubiquiti, Avalan, 2GIG, Videocomm, and Vivotek all manufactur Wireless Antenna offered through A1 Security Cameras.

Key features of Wireless Antenna for Surveillance

  • Frequency Range: Different wireless devices operate on different frequency bands. Choose an antenna that is suitable for the frequency range of the surveillance equipment you are using.
  • Gain: Antenna gain is a measure of how much the antenna can focus its signal in a particular direction. Higher gain antennas can transmit or receive signals over longer distances, but they may have a more narrow focus.
  • Directionality: Antennas can be omnidirectional (radiating signals in all directions) or directional (focused in a specific direction). The choice depends on whether you need to monitor a specific area or multiple directions.
  • Size and Form Factor: Consider the physical size and form factor of the antenna. Some applications may require compact or low-profile antennas, while others may benefit from larger, more powerful ones.
  • Polarization: Antennas can be vertically or horizontally polarized. Matching the polarization of transmitting and receiving antennas can improve signal strength and quality.
  • Antenna Placement: Proper placement of antennas is crucial for optimal performance. Obstructions like buildings and vegetation can affect signal strength, so plan the installation carefully.
