The ALFA ARS-AS087 comes with a Type-N female to RP-SMA male antenna extender with a magnetic mount and ~10-foot length LMR®-200 cable. This means you can extend your N-male antenna with very limited loss.

This base is IP65 certified and safe to use outdoors and in the elements. We do recommend RokTape to seal all outdoor connection points.

This is a great option for short-range indoor or OUTDOOR extension of a compatible antenna for your RAK V2, Bobcat 300, Nebra Indoor/Outdoor, SenseCAP M1, SyncroB.it, Helium Hotspot, Kerlink & LongAP miner. This is not compatible with the factory antenna for these miners, for a compatible base, see here. The base is magnetic so do not put the base right near a computer hard drive. 

Cheap entry-level magnet docking bases for antennas typically have cables without shielding. Our thick shielded CFD-200 cable limits gain loss to just 0.9 dB for 915 MHz (1.4 dB for 2.4 GHz WiFi), helping you preserve your antenna gain.

Frequency: 0~6GHz
Diameter: 3.4 inches
Maximum Input Power: 50 W
Impedance: 50 ohms
Cable Type: LMR-200
Connector A: N-Type Female Connector
Connector B: RP-SMA Male Connector
Operation Temperature: -40°C ~ +70°C
Cable Length: 3 meters (~9.5 feet)

Heavy Duty/Heavy Weight
Larger antennas will cause weaker magnet bases to fall over. Our heavy-duty magnet gives the total base a weight of 15 ounces, compared to just 3 ounces for an entry-level base.

Compatibility: This base has an N-female connector on the top and an RP-SMA male connector at the end of the 9.5-foot cable. RP-SMA is reverse polarity SMA, so the female port has a pin and the male has a hole, as the gender with RP goes by threading. This base is compatible with many popular N-male antennas, including all of the N-male antennas we carry:

Best antenna I ever tested.

Magnet not very strong

Works as advertised however the magnet is not very strong compared to other magnetic bases that I have used. That said it does not appear to have moved.

Has a design flaw...

Overall it is a solid product, but there is one issue that can easily be fixed. The nut on top is too thick and doesn't allow you to properly tighten your antenna. I've tried this with both the 4dbi and 8.5dbi from Rockland and neither will tighten properly without removing the nut. With the nut removed it works just fine for testing, but a thinner nut or longer threads would solve this issue.
