New Optimised Performance Helium Network Antennas from McGill Microwave Systems Ltd

Specially designed for use with Helium Hotspot miners , All Models (i.e Linxdot, Sensecap, Rak, bobcat, Nebra and all others) 

McGill Microwave Systems introduce the 9dBi High Performance Antennas for use with the Helium Network offering superior Power Transmission compared to other commercially available alternative non optimised VSWR Antenna designs.

The new 9 dBi Antenna design has been specifically tuned to operate with peak performance over only the frequency band of interest to US, Canada and Australia Helium Hotspot operators – the US 915 & AU915 frequency band.

Most commercially available Helium Hotspot Antenna designs available today are designed to be universal – meaning that the one product has been designed to cover both the 868MHz and 915MHz Frequency bands – resulting in designs which may be non-optimised for either frequency range.

Antenna Connector: N Male 

You will require an N Female connector on your LMR- cable 

Please check our shop for the correct LMR cable assembly you require 

These optimised Antennas feature a superior VSWR performances of 1.5:1 absolute maximum – which immediately results in over +7% more transmitted, non-reflected Power from your Antenna and reduced Mis-match loss when compared to many of the commercially available 2:1 VSWR performance.

Use the table to help identify the correct connector for your hotspot (this is a guide only please check your miner)
