The Cisco AIR-ANT5114P2M-N is a 5-GHz 14-dBi directional antenna designed for use with Cisco Aironet wireless access points or other 5-GHz radios with RP-TNC (Reverse Polarity Threaded Neill-Concelman) connectors. The RP-TNC connectors are gender-specific, with the antenna featuring a female RP-TNC connector and the radio featuring a male RP-TNC connector.
It is important to note that not all antennas and radios are compatible with each other due to variations in connector type and gender. Therefore, it is important to ensure that the antenna and radio connectors are compatible before attempting to connect them.
Here are some commonly used antenna connector types:
- RP-TNC: This connector type is commonly used for Cisco Aironet and other Wi-Fi radios. RP-TNC connectors are threaded connectors that require a 1/4 turn to secure the connection.
- N-Type: This connector type is commonly used for higher frequency applications, including cellular, Wi-Fi, and satellite communications.
- SMA (SubMiniature version A): This connector type is commonly used for smaller, lower power antennas.
- BNC (Bayonet Neill-Concelman): This connector type is commonly used for video and audio applications, including CCTV cameras.
