Overview
The 14201 is a high-gain (9 dBd), directional (Yagi) antenna. It is useful for making RF links over longer distances in one direction. This antenna is typically used with sub-315 mW radios such as the RF401A. The 14201 requires an antenna cable to connect it to the spread-spectrum transceiver. (See the Compatibility information for cable options.)

Detailed Description
The 14201 is a high-gain, Yagi antenna used with our 900 MHz spread spectrum transceivers. This outdoor antenna has a narrow beam width that requires precise aiming. It should be used to communicate with one distant station. The 14201 requires an antenna cable to connect it to the spread spectrum transceiver. (See the Compatibility information for cable options.)
Note: Because the FCC limits the EIRP of 900 MHz spread-spectrum radios to 36 dBm, using this antenna with an RF450- or RF451-based system requires the user to reduce the radio's transmit power to a setting of 5 or less.

Additional Compatibility Information
Spread-Spectrum Transceivers
Note: Because the FCC limits the EIRP of 900 MHz spread-spectrum radios to 36 dBm, using this antenna with an RF450- or RF451-based system requires the user to reduce the radio's transmit power to a setting of 5 or less.
Antenna Cables
The following cables can be used:
- COAXNTN-L—connects the antenna to the radio, data logger, or interface via a surge protector.
- COAXRPSMA-L—connects the antenna to spread-spectrum radios other than the RF450 when surge protection is not required.
- COAXSMA-L—connects the antenna to an RF450 when surge protection is not required.
Mounting Hardware
The antenna includes mounting hardware that accommodates a pipe of up to 3.18 to 6.35 cm (1.25 to 2.5 in.) outer diameter.
