Product Description
The 5.2GHz (5150-5350MHz) band offers wider channels and cleaner spectrum than 2.4GHz, making it a preferred choice for Wi-Fi 6/6E, UAV video downlinks, and point-to-point bridges. But higher frequencies suffer greater path loss—so when a standard transmitter starts to fade, this 5W signal booster restores the link. It amplifies both directions of the connection with 37dBm (5W) output, 18dB TX gain, and 18dB RX gain, keeping video, telemetry, and data streams stable at range. Power comes from a wide 8-18V DC input, and SMA connectors mate directly with your antennas and coax. The compact 98.5 × 65 × 25 mm aluminum enclosure weighs just 0.25 kg, making it easy to mount on a drone, pole, or portable ground station. The 5.5 × 2.1 mm power jack is common in field equipment.
Typical Applications
- Wi-Fi 6/6E Infrastructure: Boost access point signals for enterprise, campus, and outdoor coverage
- UAV Video & Data Links: Extend 5GHz downlink range for professional drone operations
- Point-to-Point Microwave Backhaul: Strengthen long-distance wireless bridges for telecom and enterprise
- Public Safety & Emergency Comms: Reliable two-way links for critical operations in remote areas
- Industrial IoT & SCADA: Two-way data transmission for remote sensors and controllers
- Amateur Radio & Field Testing: Higher output for licensed 5GHz experimentation and validation

Key Advantages
With 5W (37dBm) of output and 18dB of gain on both the transmit and receive paths, this booster keeps two-way links balanced—so you're not just transmitting farther, you're receiving weaker return signals cleanly too. That symmetry is essential for telemetry, command, and data applications, where a strong outbound signal means nothing if the inbound path drops. The 8-18V DC input accepts a wide range of power sources, from 2S-4S LiPo packs to vehicle electrical systems, making it easy to integrate into portable and mobile setups.
The SMA connectors mate directly with standard antennas and coax, and the 5.5 × 2.1 mm power jack is common in field equipment. The aluminum housing provides passive cooling and mechanical protection, while the 98.5 × 65 × 25 mm footprint and 0.25 kg weight make it suitable for drone mounting, pole installation, or portable ground stations. No extra bulk, no unnecessary complexity.
Tuned for 5150-5350MHz, this booster covers the lower UNII-1 band used by Wi-Fi 6/6E, outdoor bridges, and UAV video links. If you're fighting range limits or signal dropouts on 5GHz, this is a straightforward way to add margin without redesigning your RF chain.
