Scantronic COM-ANT-02: 5MTR WiFi Antenna for COM-DATA Range

Full Description

Essential WiFi Signal Extension for Smart Security Systems

The Scantronic COM-ANT-02 is a professional signal extension solution for installers integrating Eaton’s secure communication modules. When a control panel is installed in a basement, a cupboard under the stairs, or within a metal cabinet, WiFi signals are often blocked or significantly attenuated. The COM-ANT-02 overcomes this by allowing you to mount the antenna up to 5 meters away from the panel, ensuring a strong, reliable link to the local network.

Optimised for Eaton Scantronic Communicators Specifically built for the COM-DATA range (including the COM-DATA-WIFI and COM-DATA-4G-WIFI), this antenna is critical for maintaining consistent uptime for the Eaton SecureConnect app and ARC monitoring. Its 5-meter cable length provides ample flexibility to route the antenna through walls or ceilings to reach an area with better signal reception.

Professional Installation The unit features a discreet black finish and is designed for easy mounting. By bypassing the shielding effect of the alarm panel’s metal housing, the COM-ANT-02 reduces the risk of communication dropouts, ensuring the system meets the reliability standards expected by commercial and residential end-users.

FAQs

What is the difference between COM-ANT-01 and COM-ANT-02? The COM-ANT-01 is for Cellular (GSM/4G) signals, whereas the COM-ANT-02 is specifically for WiFi signals. You should choose the antenna based on which communication path (Mobile Data or WiFi) needs boosting.

Does this work with the i-on40H panel? Yes, if the i-on40H is fitted with a WiFi-enabled communication module (like the COM-DATA-WIFI), this antenna is the correct accessory to boost that module’s signal.
