ANT-4GE1-K Overview
Outdoor 4G Antenna for DrayTek LTE Routers
4G/LTE routers such as the DrayTek Vigor 2862Lac can provide highly resilient connectivity by utilising mobile broadband, either as the main Internet connection or as a backup connection for the building.
The Outdoor 4G Antennas for DrayTek LTE Routers can improve 4G, 3G & LTE signal reception for any DrayTek Vigor LTE router, expanding coverage and improving speeds, by allowing you to locate the antenna in a location which receives a strong signal.
Installation of outdoor antennas enables or improves 4G/LTE connectivity into locations where it’s typically inaccessible. For instance, in a comms cabinet, or in parts of a building that otherwise cannot receive mobile signal, due to building layout or location. Simply placing the antennas physically outdoors normally provides a significant signal boost over what can be achieved within a building, potentially improving speeds through better access to LTE bands and nearby mobile cell towers. The antennae can also be installed inside a building, perhaps just run outside the location/room which has poor coverage.
The Outdoor 4G Antennas for DrayTek LTE Routers support all currently used 4G, 3G and 2G frequency bands from 700MHz to 2.7GHz.
The antennas are Omni-Directional, designed for vertical orientation to receive signal from any nearby mobile cell tower, without requiring careful or sensitive aiming during installation.
Install a pair of Outdoor 4G Antennas around 0.5m to 1m apart to enable the MIMO (Multiple In, Multiple Out) capability of 4G & LTE wireless networks, further improving speeds and connection resilience. For best results, separate the antennas horizontally in built-up areas and vertically in open areas.
The Outdoor 4G Antennas for DrayTek LTE Routers are weatherproof and ideal for permanent outdoor installation either on a pole or wall. Fixings are provided suitable for either (poles not included).
The N-type connector on each antenna provides a secure and weather resistant antenna connection, which links to the router’s SMA antenna connectors with a suitable cable. Each Outdoor 4G Antenna requires an N-plug to SMA cable for installation, such as our own 5 metre cable (model: CAB-LTEA5, supplied separately). You can use your own shorter or longer cables instead, ensuring the right connectors and always keep cable lengths to a minimum to avoid unncessary signal loss.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the primary benefit of using the DrayTek ANT-4GE1-K omni-directional antenna? +
The ANT-4GE1-K is designed to significantly improve signal reception and coverage for your 4G/LTE cellular routers. With a 6 dBi gain, it provides a broader reach compared to standard stock antennas, making it an excellent choice for stabilizing wireless connections in environments where local cellular signal strength is weak or inconsistent.
How does the N-type connector on the ANT-4GE1-K impact my installation? +
The N-type connector is a standard, robust interface used in professional networking equipment to ensure a secure, low-loss physical connection. It allows for a reliable link between the antenna and your DrayTek gateway, minimizing signal attenuation and ensuring that the increased gain provided by the antenna is effectively delivered to your device without interference.
Is the ANT-4GE1-K compatible with all DrayTek routers? +
This antenna is compatible with DrayTek LTE routers equipped with the appropriate N-type antenna ports. Before deploying, verify your specific router model's external antenna interface. It is engineered to perform optimally with DrayTek hardware, ensuring seamless integration into your existing wireless cellular infrastructure for enhanced connectivity performance.
Can I mount the DrayTek ANT-4GE1-K outdoors? +
While the ANT-4GE1-K is a powerful omni-directional antenna, its deployment suitability depends on the specific environmental conditions. It is built with quality materials, but you should always consider housing it appropriately if exposed to extreme weather. Always ensure that the N-type cable connections are properly sealed to prevent moisture ingress and signal degradation over time.
What does the 6 dBi rating signify for this antenna's performance? +
The 6 dBi gain rating indicates the antenna's ability to focus radio frequency energy more effectively than a unity-gain antenna. This higher gain translates to improved signal sensitivity, allowing your router to maintain a stronger link with distant cellular towers, which often results in higher data throughput and reduced packet loss in marginal signal areas.
Does the ANT-4GE1-K require any specific software configuration? +
This is a passive hardware component, meaning it does not require any software drivers or settings changes within your router’s firmware. Once physically connected to the N-type antenna port on your DrayTek router, the device will immediately begin utilizing the improved signal characteristics provided by the antenna's design.
How should I position the antenna for the best cellular reception? +
For optimal results with this omni-directional antenna, position it vertically in an area with minimal physical obstructions, preferably near a window or in a location with a clear line of sight to the outdoor environment. Avoiding placement near large metal objects or heavy electronic interference will ensure the antenna maintains its intended coverage pattern.
What are the common deployment scenarios for the ANT-4GE1-K? +
This antenna is ideal for branch offices, retail locations, or remote sites where internal router placement leads to poor LTE signal reception. By extending the antenna to a better location, it helps businesses maintain continuous connectivity for critical operations, POS systems, and cloud-based applications that rely on stable 4G/LTE backhaul.
