Re: CPE's with less than a 12dBi antenna?

For 2.4Ghz CPE, you will pay much less for 2W rated 0-3Ghz SMA model than a 50W rated 0-18Ghz N-model. Back in my Radialink days, I sorta influenced a Chinese manufacturer to design a very compact 500mW max RF attenuator for similar purpose.

EDIT: The Mini-Circuits $11.95 DC-6Ghz VAT-X+ models (mentioned by Dzero

later in this thread) are perfect for both 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz.

BTW some Atheros radios in PHY test mode can output 0dBm to max dBm in 1dB steps. IMHO that is a much better approach so ask your vendor to support that in firmware.

How does that help the too hot (and too sensitive) on RX issue?
