Directional Outdoor 5G LTE Antenna QOLTEC 16 dBi SMA 3300–3800 MHz 3 m waterproof

Directional Outdoor 5G LTE Antenna QOLTEC 16 dBi SMA 3300–3800 MHz 3 m waterproof is an external cellular antenna engineered to increase signal strength and link stability for 5G/LTE equipment. The antenna covers the 3300–3800 MHz band with a 16 dBi directional gain, comes with an SMA connector and a 3 m cable, and is housed in a weatherproof enclosure for outdoor installation. It is intended to be mounted on poles, walls or masts to focus reception and transmission toward a selected base station.

Advantages

The directional design and 16 dBi gain provide targeted signal amplification, improving throughput and reducing packet loss for routers and fixed wireless access devices. The waterproof housing and durable materials allow continuous outdoor operation in variable weather conditions. The integrated 3 m cable and SMA termination simplify connection to many consumer and industrial cellular routers that accept external antenna inputs.

Suitable for

• Improving mobile broadband reception in suburban and rural locations
• Fixed wireless access installations requiring a directional antenna
• Cellular routers, gateways and modems that accept SMA external antennas
• Point-to-point or point-to-multipoint links within the 3300–3800 MHz range

Key specifications

• Frequency range: 3300–3800 MHz
• Gain: 16 dBi (directional)
• Connector type: SMA
• Cable length: 3 m
• Enclosure: weatherproof for outdoor mounting

How to use

Mount the antenna outdoors on a pole, mast or wall with clear line of sight toward the desired base station or coverage source. Route the 3 m cable to your cellular router or modem and attach the SMA connector to the device’s external antenna port. Adjust the antenna orientation to maximize signal strength and data throughput, using the router’s signal indicators or a signal measurement tool during alignment. Secure cable entry points and apply standard weatherproofing to any exposed connectors if additional protection is required.

Usage recommendations

Position the antenna as high as practical and avoid nearby obstructions such as large trees or buildings. For long-term installations, periodically inspect the mounting hardware, cable condition and connector seals to maintain optimal performance.
