AS2TNC Overview

The best place to locate wireless network antennas is out of the way of any reflective or signal blocking obstacles such as furniture, cabinets, mirrors, or even people. The Linksys Antenna Stand allows you to relocate your wireless networking device's current antennas, or better yet, the Linksys High Gain Antennas, to a location with clearer signal paths to the other devices in your wireless network.

The Antenna Stand can be mounted up to 6 feet away from the wireless device. It comes with mounting slots to attach it to the ceiling, high on a wall, or it can just stand on a tall bookcase or shelf. Note that although the Antenna Stand's cable and connectors cause some loss to the wireless signal, effective placement of the antennas above signal obstacles can easily create a net gain in wireless communications range and reliability.

The two antenna connectors on the Antenna Stand support your wireless device's antenna diversity feature. This feature provides more reliable wireless communications by giving the device the ability to automatically choose whichever antenna is receiving the strongest signal.

Increase your wireless network's range and reliability with the Linksys Antenna Stand.

Features:
-Relocate your antennas to avoid reflective or signal blocking obstacles
-Supports antenna diversity for reliability and range
-Mounts on a desktop, wall, or ceiling

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the primary function of the Linksys AS2TNC antenna stand? +
The Linksys AS2TNC is designed to provide a stable, elevated mounting solution for wireless antennas equipped with TNC connectors. By utilizing this stand, you can relocate your antennas away from the back of your router or access point to achieve better signal placement, reduced interference, and improved overall wireless coverage throughout your environment.
Is the AS2TNC compatible with non-Linksys antennas? +
The AS2TNC features a standard TNC connector interface. If your third-party antenna utilizes a compatible TNC male or female connection, it will physically attach to the stand. However, verify that the thread type and gender of your antenna connector match the stand to ensure a secure, low-loss physical connection for optimal RF performance.
Does this antenna stand include an integrated extension cable? +
The AS2TNC serves as a dedicated physical base for your existing antenna hardware. It is built to hold the antenna firmly in place for desktop or shelf placement. While it provides the mounting point, please ensure your existing antenna cabling is of sufficient length to reach your desired mounting location for the stand.
Can I use the AS2TNC to improve signal range in a large office? +
Yes, deploying the AS2TNC allows you to place antennas in more strategic locations, such as higher shelves or unobstructed areas, rather than being confined to the ports on the rear of your networking hardware. Moving the antenna closer to your client devices significantly minimizes physical obstructions, which is a common way to improve throughput in larger office spaces.
What is the physical footprint and stability of the AS2TNC base? +
This stand is engineered with a weighted base to prevent tipping, even when used with longer or heavier high-gain antennas. Its compact footprint makes it ideal for desk, shelf, or cabinet top placement where space is at a premium, ensuring your wireless hardware remains upright and properly oriented for consistent signal propagation.
Are there specific mounting orientations required for the AS2TNC? +
To maximize performance, place the stand on a flat, non-metallic surface away from other electronic devices that might cause interference. Keep the antenna in a vertical position unless your specific wireless deployment requires horizontal polarization. Ensure the connection to your router is tight to prevent signal degradation caused by a loose connection.
Does the AS2TNC require any firmware or software configuration? +
As a passive physical accessory, the AS2TNC does not contain any electronic components or software. It is a plug-and-play mechanical tool used to position your antennas. Once the antenna is attached to the stand and the cable is connected to your router, it operates immediately without needing administrative intervention or configuration changes on your network equipment.
Will using this antenna stand impact the signal loss of my wireless system? +
The AS2TNC is designed to maintain signal integrity through high-quality internal cabling. However, signal loss is often a factor of cable length and quality. Always ensure that the connection points between the stand, the antenna, and the router are clean and secure to minimize insertion loss and maintain the link budget of your wireless network.
How can I request a bulk quote for the Linksys AS2TNC? +
If you are planning a large-scale wireless deployment and need multiple units of the Linksys AS2TNC, please contact our sales team directly. We specialize in providing competitive pricing for volume orders and can assist you with consolidated shipping and streamlined procurement to ensure your networking project remains on schedule and within budget.
