Your WiFi Signal, Exactly Where You Need It
No more scattergun approach! While normal Antennas spread their signal in all directions, the Interline PANEL 8 DUAL-BAND focuses the transmit and receive power like a spotlight. With a precise beamwidth of only 36-40 degrees, you direct the signal exactly to your target area. The result: an extremely stable and fast connection over long distances, even in environments with many obstacles like high shelves or machinery. Ideal as a reliable weatherproof point-to-point WiFi Antenna.
Built to Last: Outdoor & Industrial-Grade
This Antenna was developed for the toughest conditions. The solid, UV-resistant plastic housing reliably protects the high-quality technology inside from weather influences. With IP64 certification, it is completely dustproof and protected against splashing water from all sides – a rain shower won't harm it. The extreme operating temperature range of -40°C to +80°C makes it the first choice for outdoor use, in cold storage facilities, or hot production halls.
Maximum Flexibility Thanks to True Dual-Band Operation
Why choose one frequency band when you can have both? The Interline PANEL 8 supports both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. Use 2.4 GHz Antennas for maximum compatibility and long range that also penetrates walls better. Switch to 5 GHz Antennas to benefit from higher data rates and significantly less interference from neighboring networks. This Dual-Band Panel Antenna Outdoor IP64 gives you the freedom to optimally adapt your Network to your needs.
Plug & Play: Easy Installation
We know your time is precious. That's why this antenna was designed for straightforward installation. The 0.9 meter long, high-quality connection Cable is permanently integrated, eliminating a potential source of error and attenuation at the antenna itself. With the common N-connector, you connect it directly to your WiFi Access Point or WiFi Router. The included, adjustable mast mount allows for quick and precise alignment for optimal performance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can you connect this antenna directly to your laptop to improve WiFi reception?
No, unfortunately, you can't connect it directly. This WiFi Antenna is passive and requires an active transmitting and receiving device. You'll need a WiFi Router or a special WiFi USB Adapter with an external N-female connector to use it.
What exactly does 'Dual-Band' mean and what advantages does it offer you?
How large is the area you can cover with the antenna at a distance of 50 meters?
With a beamwidth of 36 degrees, you'll illuminate an area approximately 32 meters wide at a distance of 50 meters. Remember: the signal is strongest in the center. Therefore, aim the Antennas as precisely as possible at your target device to achieve the best performance.
Is the antenna robust enough for use in a freezing cold refrigerated warehouse?
Yes, absolutely! You can confidently use this WiFi Antenna in a refrigerated warehouse. It's built for an extreme temperature range of -40°C to +80°C and easily handles sub-zero temperatures.
What does IP64 certification mean for your outdoor use?
For you, IP64 means the Enclosure is completely dust-tight and protected against splashing water from all directions. So, the Antennas easily withstand a normal rain shower, making it ideal for your outdoor mounting.
Does the orientation (polarization) play a role, and how do you set it?
Yes, it's super important for a stable connection! Transmitting and receiving Antennas should always have the same polarization. You can easily set this during mounting: either mount the antenna normally for vertical polarization or rotate it 90 degrees for horizontal alignment.
