All Antennas

Here you'll find all the antennas listed on our website divided into categories by major design feature or type. It's difficult to work out which antenna is best for your situation without first learning what the different types are - have a read through our selecting an antenna guide. Here are some of the more common scenarios that might help you choose.

Improving Phone Coverage at Home

House in a blackspot or low coverage area? If you're having this type of issue often there's not too many cell towers in the area, and in most cases even if you're lucky enough to have a choice there's usually one that provides better signal than the others. Because your mobile broadband or phone can only connect to one tower at a time we often recommend roof mounting a 12 to 16dBi Yagi antenna (like your TV antenna). This type of antenna can listen very intensely in the direction it is pointed, making installation simply a matter of finding out which direction the cell tower is in.
In areas around town where there's a number of cell towers to choose from, you can roof mount a collinear antenna such as the COL2195 or COL2199 to allow your phone or modem to select the best connection possible.

Very Remote Locations

For very long distance radio communications it's important to have an antenna mounted as high as possible. Houses or industrial sites in flat outback areas will require very high gain directional antennas. The 16dBi 2.4m Yagi antenna is our most tried and tested antenna out to 60-70km from the tower, and can be phased with a second 16dBi Yagi to provide an incredible 19dBi antenna array for extremely low signal areas.

Mining Accommodation/Camps

Remote camps and temporary work sites often require straightforward, easy-to-install antennas. Because of the metal structures inside temporary site accommodation or dongas, signal is often blocked from penetrating inside. To solve these issues we recommend roof mounting magnetic base antennas (often 7 or 9dBi), or an 11dBi Log Periodic antenna which just needs to be rotated about to pick up the best signal. Other popular solutions involve using a magnet mount to install a bull bar antenna on your desk or roof.
