Common indoor APs use RSMA and TNC antenna connectors which is suited for indoor antennas. RSMA and TNC antenna cables are more vulnerable to signal loss as length increases. Outdoor antenna will use N-type connectors and cables since it is more vulnerable to signal loss. Users can easily increase their signal strength and eliminate signal loss by using a RSMA-to-N-type converter cable for connecting to N-type outdoor antennas.
