Directional antennas are usually used in outdoor backhaul scenarios,If the backhaul distance is long,high-gain antennas should be used; if the backhaul target is concentrated, small-angle antennas should be used.

Hi
Please 
  • Select suitable antennas based on site conditions. In Point-to-Point (P2P) backhaul scenarios, use small-angle antennas with high gains, such as antennas with 15º horizontal and vertical lobe width and 18 dBi gain. In Point-to-MultiPoint (P2MP) scenarios, use large-angle antennas, for example, antennas with 60º horizontal lobe width, 30º vertical lobe width, and 12 dBi gain.
    • Outdoor coverage scenarios
  1. Select directional or omnidirectional antennas according to shapes of target coverage areas and installation locations of APs. Along narrow roads, APs are generally installed on lamp poles, and directional antennas are recommended for providing coverage in the same direction. In open areas such as park centers, APs can be installed on lamp poles for convenient power supply, and omnidirectional antennas are recommended for providing coverage for surrounding areas.
  2. To provide wireless coverage along roads, APs with built-in antennas of 10 dBi gain are deployed alternatingly on both sides of the roads. It is recommended that the APs be installed at a height of 6 m to 10 m. If they are installed at a higher place, coverage holes may occur at the bottom of lamp poles. If there is no obstacle, the recommended coverage distance of a single AP is about 120 m.
  3. In open areas such as parks and plazas, APs and external omnidirectional antennas with the gain of 4 dBi to 7 dBi are generally deployed to provide wireless coverage. It is recommended that the APs be installed at a height of 4 m to 6 m, and the coverage distance of a single AP be about 80 m if there is no obstacle.
