More only radiate signal in the direction you point them at and deliver impressive performance in a high noise environment because of the lack of side lobes. Zero side lobes means that the antenna has a very high beam efficiency and makes colocation extremely simple for growing network throughput. In a wireless internet service provider’s network for example, excellent performance means no side lobes, superb radiation efficiency, frequency stability of the radiation pattern, and sharp fall-off of radiation intensity.

Herman Conradie, Business Development Manager EMEA for RF elements commented: “We are delighted to be partnering with Cogent Distribution, who we feel have an in-depth understanding of our products and their capabilities and will no doubt be excellent ambassadors for our brand.”
