Repeater Antenna

Due to the problem of “signal attenuation and timing”, each version of Ethernet has restrictions on the maximum length of different cables. To support a large local area network, a “signal amplifier”-Repeater is used at this time. Repeater or gainer is a physical layer device. It is used to receive, adjust, and amplify the signal in both directions, and transmit it to the cable at the other end. In this way, the signal attenuation problem is improved and the total cable length can be extended. Also, repeaters are widely used in telephone systems, wireless networks… For example, if your home has a poor 3G/4G signal, you may install a dual-band ICS repeater. Or the number of cubicles in the home/office is large, and the Wi-Fi signal is bad, the easiest way is to install a Wi-Fi repeater.

Wi-Fi Bridge Antenna

In the evolution of the Ethernet network, the first to appear in the bridge. It was mainly used to connect the traditional Ethernet with multiple bus topologies and became “one” large-scale Ethernet. The main purpose of segmentation is to cut the collision network domain, thereby reducing the collision probability and increasing the average bandwidth. Soon after, the multiport bridge was called a switch. Therefore, bridges and switches are often regarded as equal.

Network Adapter Antenna

A network adapter, also known as a network interface controller, a network interface card, or local network receiver (LAN adapter), is a piece of computer hardware designed to allow computers to communicate on a computer network. Because it has a MAC address that belongs to the second layer of the OSI model. It allows users to connect via cable or wireless. Each network card has a unique 48-bit serial number called the MAC address, which is written in a ROM on the card. Every computer on the network must have a unique MAC address. No two network cards produced have the same address. This is because the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) is responsible for assigning unique MAC addresses to network interface controller vendors.

The network card used to be plugged into the computer bus as an expansion card, but due to its low price and widespread Ethernet standards, most new computers have integrated network interfaces on the motherboard. Unless multiple interfaces are required, a separate network card is no longer needed. Even newer motherboards may have a built-in dual network (Ethernet) interface.

Lynwave has done plenty of Repeater/ Network Adapter/ Wi-Fi Bridge antenna cases and products. Lynwave always used our strong R&D background to simulate and develop types of high-performance solutions and related components for projects. Please refer to the following list of those FCC-certified case studies.
