RF-Elements STD-24-UM StarterDish 24 UM, Directional Parabolic Dish Antenna, 5GHz, 24dBi
Versatile CPE Antennas
StarterDish™ UM are parabolic dish antennas with high directivity designed for CPE deployment scenarios. The StarterDish™ UM is a convenient and affordable antenna series providing wide range of footprint, gain, and connectivity options.
Beam Performance
StarterDish™ UM antennas are designed for the best possible performance having minimized side lobes, enabling their deployment as CPE antennas in high interference environment.
Balanced Gain for Both Polarizations
StarterDish™ UM antennas provide stable gain performance over the whole working frequency band and both polarizations. Stable gain results in dependable field performance when changing radio channels.
Appropriate Gain For The Link (Budget)
StarterDish™ UM antennas come in 21, 24, and 27 dBi gain options, so you can choose the right antenna with gain fitting your link budget.
Flexible Radio Connectivity
The StarterDish™ UM antennas provide waveguide connection to Ubiquiti Networks waveguide connector and Mimosa waveguide connector straight out of the box. Separately sold StarterAdapter™ enables connectivity with any radio with coaxial interface. This adapter provides a pair of RP-SMA connectors and is not part of the StarterDish™ UM package.
Slick Pole Mount
StarterDish™ antennas come with integrated pole mount. It is simple, slick, and light weight. The range of pole diameters it supports is from 20 to 55 mm (the upper part of pole diameter range is recommended for the best results).
Light Weight
StarterDish™ antennas are very light. Low weight provides multiple benefits when installing CPEs in environment with few mounting options. Low weight is also a big plus for field technicians and installation teams.
