3 Way Splitter in the Box

3 Way Splitter in the BoxUp close and personal with the device that connects all 3 14 dBi sector antennas to the 1 watt amplifier, creating 360 degrees of sectorized coverage.

about the AMP...

Seeing as you will be splitting the signal, you will need to assume there will be a loss of signal anywhere from 4-9dBi per port, and in turn you are splitting the power going to each antenna. To get a stable signal you will need to apply an AMP per antenna "after" the splitter and not before. Sooo, with this box setup above, you would need 3 AMP's (I suggest Renasis or Luxul over the one you're using). You will also need 3 N-Male to N-Male LMR195 (LMR400 would be best, but since space is limited, the smaller LMR will work great). I wouldn't get longer than 24 inches on the LMR195. Then all you would need from there is the Antenna cable connecting to your Access point. I have installed these splitters in hotels before, and they worked okay with unicast traffic. But when you are creating secure tunnels and a packet or two was dropped, the guests would loose their VPN or Remote desktop connection. But, don't split the power only the signal. And always remember to use low noise AMP's when using splitters since each break in the cable introduces that little extra noise and loss.
