Question 1

How well does it handle congestion during evening peak time?

Accepted Answer

If you mean how is the performance effected during busy peak periods, the antenna has no effect on this and is all down to the demand on the mobile mast. The signal quality the antenna receives (RSRQ,RSRO/SINR) are effected by things like distance from mast or the weather etc.

Question 2

Can you confirm if this comes with attached cables and if so, what length, connector and gender?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it has two 5 meter cables attached with male SMA connectors.

Question 3

Can anyone give me pointers on how to find the nearest mast/s, please?

Accepted Answer

Depends on your Network provider.  If you're with '3' you look on their website - but that's no use if your SIM is provided by O2, etc.  This antenna is a directional one so gives best results where you have direct line of sight to the transmitter (mast).  If the antenna cannot 'see' the mast then it will rely on a signal which is being 'bounced around' and reflected off other objects.  A different antenna (multi-directional) would then probably give you better results.  I suggest buying this if you have identified your network provider's mast and know that you can install it with a clear line of sight to that transmitter.  Also bear in mind that different masts have different power outputs so if the mast you are aiming at  has a low output no amount of boosting the signal will increase the speed you receive - you will be limited by the capability at the mast.  Again check your network provider's website for mast siting, transmitter coverage and capability.  Hope that helps.

Question 4

Does this antenna connect to the huawei h112-370 5g modem? does it need different connectors?

Accepted Answer

This antenna has (male) SMA connectors. Whereas the Huawei H112-370 5G Pro has TS9 sockets. So, you would need TS9 to SMA adapters. These are readily available on Amazon or the "Auction" site at £5+.....
