The OMNI-496 is a dual-band Wi-Fi omni-directional antenna, developed by Poynting Antennas. The antenna can connect to any Wi-Fi access point

whether it is older Wi-Fi technology or new dual band 802.11ax-enabled Wi-Fi technology. The antenna can resolve channel saturation and provide

the ultimate in Wi-Fi performance and flexibility. The OMNI-496 is an IP68 marine version of its urban, industrial & commercial counterpart; the OMNI-

296. The antenna operates across multiple frequency bands, i.e., 2.4 GHz, 3.3 to 4.2 GHz, and 5 to 7.2 GHz, offering excellent utilization of the radio

spectrum. The antenna has a maximum gain of 7 dBi in the 2.4 GHz band and 10 dBi in the 5 GHz band, which offers the best performance with

reliable connections. The antenna has an N-Type female connector at its base which can be terminated to a cable of the desired type and length.

• Operational in the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz Wi-Fi bands

• Medium gain omni-directional antenna

• Purpose-built antenna for marine and coastal applications

• Lightweight

• UV and saltwater resistant

• Robust and weather resistant

• Marine / Yachts / Boats / Ferries

• Enhanced LTE reception

• IoT and M2M

• Poor data signal reception

• Improve data transmission connection reliability & stability

• Wi-Fi applications

VSWR is a measure of how efficiently radio-frequency power is transmitted from a power source, through a transmission line, into a load. In an ideal system, 100% of the energy is transmitted which corresponds to a VSWR of 1:1.

The OMNI-496 delivers superior performance across all bands with a VSWR of <2:1.
