Good day and thx in advance for any help.

I 'm administration an Aironet 1242ag, and we are currently buying an

AIR-ANT1728

as antenna. The standard cable for the antenna is 0.9m long, and It could be insufficient for my needs.

So a few questions:

Can i extend it ?

AIR-CAB050LL-R could fit?

The connectors should be 1 male, 1 female?

Thank you again

Francesco

You can extend it, but you will have some signal loss depending on the length of cable. These antennas have 'N' connectors and the cable will be fine since it has one female and one male 'N' connector. If this will be mounted outside make sure you use coax seal on the connector.

Hi,
I know that this post its old. But now I'm looking  also for extend cable to AIR-ANT1728 and just I'm not sure which one will be that fit so as not to lose too much on the signal (15 meters). Can you give me a specific product name where all parameters are fine?

best regards,

Artur Piasecki
