Your Signal Spotlight: WiFi Over Kilometers
No more weak WiFi reception outdoors. The Cyberbajt LineEter 16 is no ordinary Antenna – it is a precise instrument for building radio links over long distances. With a massive 16 dBi Antenna gain, it focuses all energy into a narrow beam. The result: You can reliably connect buildings, properties, or distant locations that previously seemed unreachable. Ideal for video surveillance, connecting outbuildings, or as a client Antenna to connect to a distant WiFi Access Point.
Precision Instead of Noise: The Power of Directionality
In a world full of WiFi networks, signal quality is crucial. While a normal antenna receives signals from all directions, the LineEter 16, with its strong directionality, effectively blocks out interference from the side and rear. This reduces interference, increases data throughput, and ensures stable point-to-point connections. The ability to choose between vertical and horizontal polarization gives you an additional tool to find the best signal in your environment.
Built for Outdoors: Robust Technology for All Weather
The LineEter 16 was uncompromisingly designed for outdoor use. The weatherproof construction with a housing made of high-quality, UV-resistant ABS plastic and a solid metal reflector reliably protects the sensitive microwave circuit board from the elements. The antenna can withstand even high wind speeds of up to 200 km/h. The included mast and wall mount allows for easy and precise installation with a tilt capability of up to 15 degrees, enhancing your Mounting Systems.
Strengths & Notes at a Glance
- Pro: High antenna gain enables connections over very long distances.
- Pro: Strong directionality filters interference signals and improves signal quality.
- Pro: Robust, weatherproof construction for durable outdoor use.
- Pro: Flexible mounting for vertical or horizontal polarization.
- Note: Requires very precise alignment with the counterpart for optimal performance.
- Note: As a single-polarity antenna, it does not support MIMO; the DUO model is required for this.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What range can I achieve with the Cyberbajt LineEter 16 Antenna?
The range strongly depends on environmental conditions. Under ideal conditions with a clear line-of-sight, point-to-point connections of 4 to 5 kilometers and more can be achieved with this 2.4 GHz Directional Antenna. In built-up areas or with obstacles, the range for your WiFi Antennas is significantly reduced.
Do I need a special cable to connect the antenna?
Yes, you need a separate, weather-resistant, and low-loss coaxial cable. This is crucial for optimal performance of your WiFi Antennas. The antenna has an N-female connector. So, the Antenna Cables must have an N-male connector on one side and the appropriate Coaxial Connectors for your WiFi Routers or WiFi Access Points on the other side (often RP-SMA).
Can I use this antenna to improve my laptop's WiFi reception?
Yes, that is a typical application. You can use this WiFi Antenna as a 'client antenna' by connecting it via cable to a WiFi USB Adapter that has an external antenna port. You then need to precisely align the antenna with your WiFi Router or WiFi Access Point.
What does 'vertical or horizontal polarization' mean and what should I choose?
Polarization describes the oscillation plane of radio waves. For an optimal connection, both Antennas (transmitter and receiver) must use the same polarization. Typically, vertical mounting is used for WiFi Antennas. For point-to-point links, especially with 2.4 GHz Antennas, switching to horizontal polarization at both ends can help reduce interference and improve signal quality.
Is the antenna suitable for the 5 GHz frequency range?
No, this 2.4 GHz Antenna is exclusively designed for the 2.4 GHz frequency band (2400-2500 MHz). Operation in other frequency bands, such as with 5 GHz Antennas or 5 GHz Components, is not possible and would lead to extremely poor performance, as it is not designed for those 5 GHz Components.
What is the difference between this antenna and an omni-directional antenna?
An omni-directional antenna, such as a 2.4 GHz Omni-Directional Antenna, transmits and receives signals equally in all horizontal directions (like a light bulb). This 2.4 GHz Directional Antenna, however, focuses all energy into a narrow beam (like a spotlight), which allows for a much higher range in that specific direction but prevents reception from other directions, making it a specialized WiFi Antenna.
