Nanostation 5 or 2 - external antenna problem

[janmoravek]

Hi,
i testing nanostation2 and 5 and with both, when i connect to RSMA external antenna and set antenna to external, the signal is always poor and worst then internal.

Have anyone has any experience with these settings?

Thanks for answer.

Hello Janmoravek,

Can you give me the specifications that you are using for the eternal antenna?

Thank you,

Hi,
pigtail RSMA-N, 2 meters, 14 dbi antena, set in radio, external antena, that the signal is worst then internal. Tested more antennas. Same nano2 and nano5. (for nano5 19dbi).

Again AP with 17dbi, 90 degress.

When i deattach antenna is the same level in site survey.

Can we discuss this problem via email or phone?

Hi,
if your pigtail really is N-RSMA, then try looking at the antenna connector (RTFM) - it is NOT RSMA, but SMA. Technically the RSMA pigtail can be screwed on it, but you have no connection on center pin => poor signal.

Yes, that combination is NOT going to work. You need something like:

You can check the pigtail. Pigtail must be sma-male to N-Male
