Wi-Fi antennas target high density environments such as sports stadiums
Currently, existing wireless networks in many sports and entertainment venues are not optimized to handle the wireless traffic generated by tens of thousands of mobile devices, often leaving fans and stadium operators frustrated and underserved.
“Many existing antennas function much like a small city street with only one lane for traffic,” explains Jack Cowper, Laird’s Senior Vice President of Infrastructure Antenna Systems.
Cowper adds, “That’s exactly why Laird engineered the PDQ family of high density, weather resistant Wi-Fi antennas. These antennas with multiple-input, multiple-output (MIMO) technology function more like an interstate highway, allowing more traffic through in less time. This enables fans to share the event experience in addition to supporting revenue generating stadium operations delivering an excellent return on investment.”
The PDQ Wi-Fi antennas from Laird are the first which have been designed to meet the unique needs of large crowds in addition to being able to withstand the harshest of weather conditions at outdoor locations for years. The result is a suite of products for all types of venues, specifically tailored to provide the most reliable coverage and capacity for different areas of the stadium from spectator seating to concession and ticketing to backroom offices and security.
The PDQ24499 directional panel antenna has four radiating elements operating over 2400 to 2500 MHz and 4900 to 5950 MHz: 2 ports vertical and 2 ports horizontal polarization delivering 8.6 dBi/9.4 dBi gain all in a ultra-slim, IP67 ingress rated housing providing high level signal radiation density within the engineered coverage area.
The PDQ244915 directional panel antenna has four radiating elements operating over 2400 to 2500 MHz and 4900 to 5950 MHz: 2 ports vertical and 2 ports horizontal polarization delivering 11.1 dBi/15.0 dBi all in a ultra-slim, IP67 ingress rated housing that delivers concentrated signal transmission uniformly within the directional radiation pattern which maximizes antenna performance.
