Fits ALL cellular trail cameras with a screw on antenna including, Tactacam Reveals, WiseEyes, Brownings, Stealth Cams, Spartans, etc. Includes an adapter for the RP-SMA antenna connector found on Tactacam Reveal and Spypoint cameras. This directional antenna is the best possible solution to achieve improved or usable signal. The directional antenna is directly pointed at a transmission tower by rotating the antenna and monitoring the received signal until peak reception is achieved. After tuning 10/12 dBi depending on cellular band (don't be fooled by bogus dbi numbers you find on most Amazon antennas. In addition to the signal improvement the antenna itself can bring, the included 15’ cable allows the antenna to be placed significantly higher which can also have dramatic improvements in reception. The plastic housing may be painted to reduce its visibility using standard, nonmetallic, spray paint. The included mounting bracket is designed to attach to round piping but is easily modified to mount on a wide variety of surfaces

Customer Reviews
My camera could only get two bars of low quality signal which wasn't enough to transmit requested videos. After hooking up the antenna, I got 3 bars of good signal which was able to send the requested videos from the camera. Once and awhile it dips to 2 bars, but it will still send the requested videos unlike before I hooked up the directional antenna.
Highly recommend my tactacam Pro 3.0 had one bar now it has four bars strong signal excellent antenna thanks Mike
I had a fair reception area. I was hoping to improve the signal with this. I knew where the nearest tower was. I rotated the antenna in multiple directions at the tower and it would not connect. I finally disconnected it and replaced it with the factory antenna, and it connected, so I did not bother trying anymore
Update: After my initial two star review, Mike with Herd 360 contacted me. He discussed options to work with me on this. Rather than return the product, I elected to try again next time I went to the ranch. I was able to get it to connect, and it worked as advertised. The customer service was excellent, and it was apparent that they were concerned with my satisfaction. Thank you very much.
Hey Braxton. Please call me, as you can see from everyones reviews on this antenna, they normally work great. I would like to first talk to you to see if you missed a crucial step that will get you going. If not then I want to send a return label to get the antenna back so I can check for a manufacturing defect and make sure it doesn't happen in the future. These antennas have helped thousand of our customers get signal where they previously could not so something isn't right. I left you a voice mail and sent an email. Our number is 803-341-0938 ext 2.
Great product! Works great, went from 1 small red bar to 3 bars! Will purchase more!
This antenna did great. I am in Idaho in the middle of nowhere and was able to find some signal. Easy to install.
