The 6ET2P56 from ET Industries is a Multi-Beam Antenna that operates from 5.2 to 5.875 GHz. This phase array antenna incorporates beam forming and beam shaping technology that produce six beams, each with a 90° beamwidth. Multibeam antennas can provide increased wireless communications capacity with enhanced spectral efficiency and higher quality of service which results in lower networking operating costs. Instead of using a short-distance (low-gain) omnidirectional antenna, a high-gain directional antenna with narrow-beams can be used. The ETI antennas have been designed to produce multiple sectors around the base station by spatially optimizing frequency usage. By using interference rejection technology, site interference between sectors is kept to a minimum. The ability to reuse frequency bands in the same area facilitates a substantial increase in throughput.
This antenna provides a high gain of 22 dB and has an H-Plane beamwidth of 90° and E-Plane beamwidth of 5°. It is available as a flat panel that measures 23 Inches (Length) x 19.2 Inches (Width) x 2 Inches (Depth) and has N-Type connector interfaces.
