Wideband Directional Antenna 700-2700 MHz 11 dBi Yagi - High Gain

In this review the Wideband Directional Antenna 700-2700 MHz is assessed for homeowners and small business users who need a focused outdoor antenna to improve cellular and hotspot reception. The bottom line: this Yagi-style roof antenna delivers directional gain up to 11 dBi across common cellular bands, making it a practical choice when paired with a compatible signal booster or repeater to reduce dropped calls and improve data speeds in marginal-coverage areas. It is most useful where a fixed mount, roof or mast installation is possible and longer run coax can be added to reach an indoor booster.

Key Features

• Wideband coverage: The antenna covers 698-960 MHz and 1710-2700 MHz so it works with most 2G/3G/4G/LTE cellular bands and common hotspot frequencies.
• High directional gain: With up to 11 dBi gain the Yagi focuses reception in one direction to boost weak signals and improve upload and download speeds when pointed toward the nearest cell site.
• Outdoor rated construction: The rugged, weatherproof enclosure and supplied tilt-and-swivel mast bracket are designed for long-term exterior installation on a roof or mast.
• N-Female connector: The female N connector with a 12' pigtail enables high-frequency signal transfer and straightforward connection to standard coax and signal boosters.
• Signal booster ready: This antenna is intended to be used with a compatible signal booster or repeater and can increase performance for multiple devices connected to the same booster.

Who It's For

This antenna is intended for homeowners, small offices and rural users who have marginal cellular coverage and can mount an outdoor antenna on a roof or mast. Pairing it with a compatible signal booster makes it effective for improving voice quality and cellular data for several users at once.

It is not a plug-and-play indoor solution; people who need a simple indoor antenna without a booster, or who cannot install an outdoor mast, should consider other types of indoor antennas or cellular products instead.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Strong directional gain up to 11 dBi improves weak signals and data throughput when correctly aimed.
• Wide frequency support covers major cellular bands used by many carriers, enabling multi-device support through a booster.
• Durable outdoor design with a tilt-and-swivel mast bracket simplifies roof or mast mounting.

Cons

• Requires a separate signal booster and suitable coax cable to provide indoor coverage; the antenna alone will not amplify signals indoors.

Our Verdict

The Wideband Directional Antenna 700-2700 MHz is a solid value for anyone willing to install an outdoor Yagi and pair it with a proper signal booster; its broad band coverage and 11 dBi gain make it effective at improving cellular voice and data in weak-signal locations. It is best for fixed installations on homes or small offices where directional aiming is possible and additional coax and a booster are acceptable costs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this antenna work by itself?
This outdoor antenna is designed to work with a compatible signal booster or repeater; it will improve received signal quality but will not distribute amplified signal indoors on its own.

Which carriers does it support?
The antenna covers common 2G/3G/4G/LTE bands and is compatible with major carriers that operate within 698-2700 MHz ranges.

Can it be mounted on any mast?
Yes, the package includes a tilt-and-swivel bracket for 1.25 to 2 in pipe or mast, but the pipe or mast itself is not included.
