Extending Range of Local WiFi Using High Gain Directional Panel Antenna and Long Range USB WiFi Adapter

Offers a way to extend your local WiFi range (short links) to a remote site using a combination of high gain antennas at the local site and long range USB WiFi adapters with connected antennas on your remote device like a PC. The 2.4Ghz external panel antenna is connected to an 802.11n/ac/ax WLAN router /AP via a low loss LMR-400 cable. A 2.4Ghz high gain amplifier is added to the line to improve the TX/RX signals, the amp has an integrated lightning surge protection system and thus the added external lightning surge protection device can be omitted.
The remote device has a USB WiFi adapter with additional high gain antenna connected to its USB port to offer internet access.
