Network antenna TELTONIKA PR1KRD30, 3 dBi, 2.4–2.5 / 5.1–5.95 GHz, RP-SMA male, vertical polarization

The TELTONIKA PR1KRD30 is a compact dual-band network antenna designed to enhance wireless connectivity for routers, access points and IoT devices. With a rated gain of 3 dBi and support for 2.4–2.5 GHz and 5.1–5.95 GHz frequency ranges, the antenna provides improved signal reception and transmission while maintaining a small footprint. It features a 50 Ω impedance, an RP-SMA male connector and vertical polarization, and its black finish complements most network equipment.

Advantages

The antenna’s dual-band design supports both common Wi‑Fi bands, enabling flexible deployment in mixed 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz environments. Its 3 dBi gain offers a balance between coverage and radiation pattern suitable for typical indoor and close-range outdoor installations. The RP-SMA male connector ensures compatibility with many consumer and industrial routers and gateways, while the vertical polarization aligns with standard antenna orientations for consistent performance. The compact dimensions make it easy to mount on limited-space devices.

Suitable for

• Home and small office Wi‑Fi routers and access points
• Industrial gateways and IoT devices requiring external antennas
• Temporary or permanent network extensions in retail or kiosk environments
• Environments where a low-profile, vertically polarized antenna is preferred

How to use

Install the antenna by screwing the RP‑SMA male connector into the corresponding RP‑SMA female socket on the router, access point or gateway. Ensure the connection is hand-tightened and avoid over‑torquing to prevent damage to the connector. Position the antenna vertically to match its polarization and optimize coverage; adjust the device placement as needed to reduce obstructions and interference from nearby metal objects or other radio sources.

Usage recommendations

For best performance, place the host device at a central location relative to the coverage area and keep the antenna clear of large metallic surfaces. When deploying in mixed 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz networks, verify device settings to ensure operation on the intended bands and test signal strength in target locations. Use appropriate weatherproofing or enclosures if the antenna is installed in exposed outdoor environments.
