I have a Alfa-NT8 UBDo. I want to replace the original antenna 12dbi, by a larger capacity. This would serve me without any problem?

Honestly this product is very cheap. I got it sloppily wrapped in bubble-wrap with scratches and cuts galore. You will get a small noticeable difference in signal improvement. This is mainly made for outside, with that said this antenna is somewhat directional and kind of needs open area to operate to get its full worth out of it. If you can hook it up outside some how maybe to the roof or a tripod (that's what i did) then I would probably recommend it. If it's for indoor use where you can't aim it outside I wouldn't recommend it.

It might, but remember this is a directional antenna. It achieves gain by focusing strength in one direction.

I suggest only using this for a router to boost outgoing signal. It's size cannot help any more in increasing incoming signal then a normal 9dbi antenna can bring in due to the power it can use to receive signal. Connected to a router it can put out very good signal when pointed in the right direction. As per what Javier said, it is best used outside. Mine came wrapped fairly well, only one minor scratch and it was in good working condition.Sorry I couldn't help with this sooner but I only noticed the email notification for this subject today.

YES, That's what I have and it works Great, make sure you buy a antenna amplifier unless you can see the transmitter from your antenna it maintains a strong signal

I would check the router to see if you can unscrew the stock antenna from it. If you can't unscrew the stock antenna, then it won't work. These Alfa antennas have a screw on type plug. They do not use a BNC type (twist & lock) plug, they are not push-on either. The connector on these is standard used in WiFi devices. They will work fine with any other brand as long as you have an unscrewable type antenna base, they also turn completely around and bend and adjust every which way.

There was a kit on amazon that had the antenna adapter the wire harness and the right brackets with holes that matched for 18 bux. It was something like Nissan 07 and up. It all worked in my versa 09

I have never owned the alfa,but it works fairly well, i am in Alaska and it has a better signal than without it

Yes, it can be longer, as long as it's 50 ohm, if you replace the RG58 coax that comes with the antenna, you should use RG8, or RG8X. You'll have less loss with those.

Yes u can the antenna already has a built-in amplifier for more channels but should not give u any problems

Hi, for the 12DB 3G antenna which you inquired, but pls kindly know that there is only SMA connector type type inventory in our AMAZON warehouse at present. If you request TS9 connector, pls order the correct item refer to the following link: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EC4K74E we'll customize the connector and sent it to you. thanks.

The cable and connector provided connected directly to my Alfa external wifi adapters without any extra hardware. The antenna did not perform as well as I expected or compared to an mfj wifi antenna that I got after this antenna. So this antenna is not recommended!!

You shouldn't have any problem.Just install the software that is provided. remember that this unit recieves old analog signal, you need a digital inverter box with your antenna.

Knocks here. I have this antenna on all my barf ends and are the stock antenna for the uv82. They work the others only marginally on the 70cm.440 freqs. But not as good as theThese. I have 6 of them and compare with a diamond rho which is twice as long. Buy it. It is a good buy. Kc4cqs. Extra class license. THE FI IS SUPPLIED WITH THE SAME ANT. AS THE USA SERIES. TRY A UV8. U WOULD LIKE IT

Reading the description of that antenna, I noticed that it has a built in amplifier. Try using it first, to see what your reception is, before adding a separate amp.

No. You can pickup strong signals with the existing antenna. If you hook that antenna with a long wire you can pick up a lot more stations.

The built-in antenna works fine. I have a 700 series external antenna and the 597cidi combo with an internal and notice no difference. I like the internal antenna- no mounting.

Yes this should work. It is a combiner, not a splitter and there is a difference. I had the same problem trying to use 2 DB8 antennas. This combiner solved the problem.

I did not have to extend the antenna cables. they were already long enough on my Dell D630 laptop. I had replaced the previous 802.11abg NIC withe the n NIC and simply connected the cables. This adaptor worked like it was original to the unit. It does its job. I installed it, closed up the unit, and never needed to re-open it for any reason. That was over a year ago. Best upgrade I've made.
