Meaning "two poles," a dipole antenna is the simplest type of antenna, consisting of an electrically conducting wire or rod one half the length of the maximum desired wavelength. The wire or rod is split at the center with an insulator. Each end at the center is connected to the feed line, typically via a balun to a coaxial cable (see balun).

This is a center-fed wire dipole antenna that gives less surface area for the charge to build on. For this reason, whenever there is a need to communicate, it makes sense to stop for a while and rig up a symmetrical dipole antenna. Compatible with a variety of MIMO chipsets from leading manufacturers, these smart antennas double signal strength and receive sensitivity, dramatically increasing throughput over standard dipole antenna configurations in 802. |
