QuickerTek and Wireless Garden Partner to Bring
Powerful Wireless Super Cantenna™ Technology To Mac Users
WICHITA, Kan. –April 12, 2004– QuickerTek has combined technology with
Wireless Garden to bring powerful directional wireless antenna technology
to the ever-growing group of Apple Airport users. This high-performance
directional antenna technology was not previously available to Mac users,
especailly those who required longer distance wireless networking.
QuickerTek has a large number of Apple Airport compatible wireless antenna
products for Mac users, and the Super Cantenna technology is a natural
extension of its product line. This antenna technology is so appealing that
when Time magazine ran a story about the wireless networking phenomenon in
the October 28, 2002 issue, Cantenna was included.
Specifically, Super Cantenna is a 12dbi 2.4GHz directional wireless antenna
that really pulls in signals in environments where Apple Airport and
Airport Extreme users have had difficulty making connections in the past.
The directional functionality offers high gain for network users who are
furthest from the Base Station. Users are excited about the full Airport
compatibility – from Apple PowerBook G4s – both Titanium and Aluminum as
well as desktops like the Power Mac G5, and even slot-loading iMacs and
iBooks. Of course, it is Mac OS X compatible. Cantenna can also be used
with Apple Airport and Airport Extreme Base Stations.
Rick Estes, president, QuickerTek said, “The Super Cantenna antenna brings
another level of WiFi performance to Mac users everywhere. It’s very
satisfying to offer an expanding product line to the Mac wireless
community. Super Cantenna is compatible with all Mac-enabled wireless
products,” Estes continued.
Cantenna consists of a 12-inch main tube antenna body. This antenna body is
made from weather-resistant UV coated metal and can be mounted outside –
usually under eaves and overhangs – where networking outdoors is possible.
An optional aluminum tripod for positioning the antenna; a number of
custom-designed cables that attach directly to a computer or Airport Base
Station; impedance adapters and user/installation instructions are also
included with Cantenna purchases. An optional 8-foot, low-loss extension
cable makes optimal Cantenna placement easy.
Product prices range from $69.95 to $149.95 for standard Cantenna products.
Custom designs are available and users are encouraged to call with specific
applications.
QuickerTek is the only innovator of wireless antennas and RF products for
Apple desktop and portable computers as well as Apple Airport Base
Stations.
