HAO17SDP Overview
HAO17SDP Hi-Gain Wireless 17dBi Directional Antenna
Long Range Wireless Coverage, Increase the Strength of Wi-Fi Devices up to 700%
The high-grade, heavy duty, HAO17SDP Hi-Gain Wireless 17dBi Directional Antenna extends the coverage of your existing wireless 2.4GHz 802.11b/g/n devices. Most Wi-Fi devices are built with 2dBi antenna gain, the HAO17SDP increases the standard antenna strength from 2dBi to a staggering 17dBi, resulting in up to 700% increase in wireless strength and coverage.*
Dual-Polarization MIMO feature ensures quality performance for data intensive applications: streaming HD video, VoIP, online gaming, syncing files to your cloud server, etc.
The HAO17SDP is a dual-polarization MIMO antenna, a smart antenna technology, that is used to improve wireless communication between your devices. Unlike most standard Wi-Fi antennas using the same pathway to transmit and receive data, the HAO17SDP is designed with multiple pathways to optimize your data transfer speed. As a result, the HAO17SDP provides an unsurpassable wireless coverage for your wireless network.
Directional Antenna for Long Range Point-to-Point Wi-Fi Applications
The Directional Antenna concentrates the signal in one direction for stronger signal and better long range wireless connections. The Directional Antenna is also great for long range Point-to-Point wireless applications as in the diagram below. For extended wireless coverage, pair the Directional antennas, one on each end, to maximize your distance (as illustrated in the image below, from location A to B)
Plug-and-Play Installation
Simply replace your device antenna with the HAO17SDP. The HAO17SDP antenna has N-Type connector and comes with N-Type to SMA adapters, the most commonly used antenna connector. For other type of adapters, please visit Hawking Tech's website for additional selections. Outdoor Antenna cable is sold separately. Select the right length to minimize your cable loss.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the primary purpose of the Hawking HAO17SDP directional antenna? +
The HAO17SDP is engineered for long-range point-to-point wireless connectivity. By focusing the radio signal into a concentrated beam rather than broadcasting in all directions, this 17 dBi directional antenna significantly extends the effective reach and signal strength of your wireless network equipment, making it ideal for bridging connections between two specific buildings or remote access points.
Which connector type does the Hawking HAO17SDP use for installation? +
This antenna features an N-type connector, which is the industry standard for high-frequency professional wireless equipment. This robust, weather-resistant interface ensures a secure physical connection with minimal signal loss, which is critical for maintaining high performance in outdoor deployments where environmental interference is a factor.
How does the 17 dBi gain rating benefit my network deployment? +
A 17 dBi gain rating signifies a high level of signal amplification. By narrowing the signal focus, the antenna achieves higher transmit and receive sensitivity. This allows your network to cover greater distances with higher data throughput, effectively overcoming signal attenuation that standard omnidirectional antennas cannot manage over long runs.
Is the Hawking HAO17SDP suitable for indoor or outdoor use? +
The HAO17SDP is primarily designed for outdoor deployment, given its directional nature and high-gain specifications. Its rugged construction allows it to withstand the rigors of exterior mounting. While it can be used indoors for very specific long-hallway or warehouse coverage scenarios, it is optimized for high-performance outdoor wireless links.
Can I use the HAO17SDP with any wireless router or access point? +
Compatibility is largely determined by the antenna port on your wireless device. As long as your router or access point features an N-type connector or can be adapted to one, you can integrate this antenna. Ensure that your radio equipment allows for external antenna swapping, as some consumer-grade devices have integrated antennas that cannot be disconnected.
How should I aim the HAO17SDP for maximum signal efficiency? +
Because this is a directional antenna, precise alignment is essential. The signal pattern is focused in one direction, so you must physically point the unit directly toward the receiving antenna at the other end of the link. Minor adjustments during installation can significantly improve your signal-to-noise ratio and overall connection stability.
What is the best scenario for deploying a directional antenna like the HAO17SDP? +
The ideal deployment scenario is a point-to-point bridge, such as connecting two offices located in separate buildings or extending Wi-Fi from a main house to a detached garage. By replacing an omnidirectional antenna with this directional model, you reduce interference from other sources and create a dedicated path for your wireless data traffic.
Does the Hawking HAO17SDP require specialized mounting hardware? +
The unit is designed for standard outdoor mounting configurations. You will typically need to secure it to a pole or a wall mount that allows for both vertical and horizontal adjustments. Ensuring a stable mount is critical, as any vibration or movement of the antenna can cause misalignment, leading to dropped packets or reduced link speeds.
Can I request a bulk quote for multiple Hawking HAO17SDP antennas? +
Absolutely. At BuyRouterSwitch.com, we specialize in supporting enterprise-level infrastructure projects. If you are planning a large-scale deployment and require multiple units for your network architecture, please contact our sales team directly. We are prepared to provide competitive bulk pricing tailored to your specific project volume and procurement requirements.
