When adding this antenna to your shopping cart the correct adapter will be added as well, along with the 3-way mount and a tip sheet.

The Omni External Antenna improves signal for voice and data (1xRTT, EVDO Rev-0, EVDO Rev-A, EDGE [AT&T 2G], HSPA [AT&T 3G]). The signal "gain" users see with the Omni Antenna is variable and dependent upon available signal in the area, interference, etc. Before buying any antenna, we encourage customers to read this article: Will an Antenna Help Me?.

This antenna is made for outdoor use and should be mounted as high as possible in order to minimize obstruction between the antenna and the cell tower.
