868 MHz LoRa Antenna Aerial Outdoor 3dBi Fiberglass LoRaWAN Antenna N-Male for Helium Hotspot Miner RAK HNT Bobcat + 1m N-Female to RPSMA-Male Extension Cable

Actually pretty good! Using this on an 868mhz MESHTASTIC solar and it’s doing its job!

Previously had a rak miner running with a standard antennae pointing outside my bedroom window - running at around 0.20 HNT a day. Bought this antennae on a whim to give it a shot for £30 - Ran the cable outside the window and screwed it to the UPVC (a 1m cable limited me doing anywhere else) and within 12 hours the miner is back up and running at around 0.40 HNT a day - looks to have doubled my efficiency.

The antenna and mounting kit are good. Be careful of the cable as it's only RG58A. If you're only using 1 meter it will be OK, but at 3 meters you will suffer a 1.6dB loss, add that to the 0.2dB for the connectors and you end up with 1.8dB loss.

Everything is perfect, quick delivery and good packaging.

perfect, it was the right choice for me

Despite being 10m i was hardly getting any witnesses on helium, swapped with a tuned version for similar price and income has now doubled. No idea what dbi this really is and its very short.

This is a 3dbi but a 5dbi showed up and my earnings decreased by 50%. Dissapointed

Not 8 dbi no difference from my old 3dbi.

Top ding, gebruik hem voor Meshtatic/Meshcore en hij heeft inderdaad een keurige swr (<1.2) en uitstekend bereik. Tientallen kilometers over het platteland is geen probleem en dwars door het centrum van de stad haalt hij probleemloos 3.5km (wellicht meer, maar niet getest).

Antenne de qualité, bonnes finitions, bon rayonnement, gain très proche de 3dBi, bon kit d'installation, câble de qualité, on apprécie l'adaptateur SMA. Super!

Ülkemde gümrük işlemlerinde sorun yaşamasam tekrar alırım.

ENG: This Bingfu antenna was perfect for me! Previously i ran with stock antenna 1.2 dBi and i didn't had anyone nearby my location, my earnings were really low as you can check by picture, as soon i installed this antenna my activity increased really much. The antenna comes with a kit composed by bracket and support, 1m RG-58 cable, N type male attach for antenna and RPSMA male and a SMA female to RPSMA female adaptor which i didn't used. I'm really satisfied with this product, is suitable for hilly terrain because 3 dBi is omnidirectional (360°), higher dBi would be more directional. Exceptional delivery time as usual of Amazon Prime, modest price, especially recommended if there is a need of testing. ITA: L'antenna Bingfu si è dimostrata essere perfetta nella mia situazione. Precedentemente montavo l'antenna stock da 1.2 dBi, e non avevo altri dispositivi nei paraggi, di conseguenza le mie attività erano molto basse, appena ho installato l'antenna Bingfu ho visto un incremento notevole. Il kit è composto dall'antenna da 3 dBi, supporti e 1 m di cavo RG-58, l'antenna ha attacco N type male e RPSMA male per il dispositivo, è anche presente un connettore SMA femmina a RPSMA maschio che non ho usato. Posso ritenermi molto soddisfatto con questo prodotto, in quanto l'antenna da 3 dBi è adatta a terreni collinari, ed è omnidirezionale, infatti un incremento troppo elevato potrebbe generare problemi di direzionalità. Tempi di consegna eccezionali come consuetudine di Amazon Prime e prezzo modico, consigliato specialmente ci sia la necessità di effettuare dei test.

I tested this antenna on a calibrated NanoVNA, and the match at 868 MHz was phenomenal — SWR 1.16 with a return loss of –22.5 dB. That means over 99% of the power is being transmitted, with essentially zero mismatch loss. In practice, this translates to stronger, more reliable links and no wasted energy heating up your transmitter. Build quality is solid, the connectors fit snugly, and the weatherproofing looks good for long-term outdoor mounting. If you’re serious about LoRa or any 868 MHz ISM-band work, this antenna gives you broadcast-grade performance at a hobbyist price. Highly recommended.
