It is a challenge to upgrade Wireless Internet Service Provider (WISP) services using the same Customer Premises Equipment (CPEs). Nevertheless, it is possible with RF elements horn sector antennas https://bit.ly/3mbyCAz . Using the traditional directional sectors for Access Point (AP) antenna is not an option here. They have too many Side Lobes (SLs) that are frequency dependent. Antenna SLs are the main cause of high noise levels in unlicensed 5 GHz band. 

Lorenzo chose  RF elements horns because they don't have any SLs and thus let the RF radios work with lowest noise floor possible. This enables higher aggregate throughput letting him switch to higher packages and also to wider channel width. With 40 MHz channel width, 120 Mbps packages per customer are real. Happy customers = happy WISP!

RF elements is the no. 1 antenna manufacturer in the wireless industry. Our award winning antenna technology solves the problem of RF noise in unlicensed frequency bands. 

THE PROBLEM: RF NOISE
Antenna side lobes (SLs) transmit and receive the RF signal from unwanted directions contributing to the noise level the radios see in the most direct way. The vast amount of devices being constantly deployed escalate this issue to the point of complete halt.

NOISE REJECTION
Our horn antennas have zero SLs effectively protecting RF radios from collecting and transmitting the noise to its surroundings. Low noise level equals high signal to noise ratio (SNR), high MCS rates the radio works with, and eventually stable and reliably high network throughput.

ZERO LOSS
Our proprietary TwistPort™ waveguide connector has no cables and no coaxial components. It uses a waveguide to transport the RF signal. Compared to the current market standard, such as RP-SMA coaxial connectors, TwistPort™ is practically lossless. It is also extremely easy to use and durable.

MASSIVE SCALABILITY
With current wireless equipment, increasing network granularity is simply impossible. Existing wireless equipment is hardly capable of delivering the performance needed today. By solving the two biggest problems, RF Noise and RF Loss, we unlock a whole new dimension of wireless networking. WISPs now can supply their increasing customer demands for connectivity by deploying more sectors with no limit.
