Multi-Code Remote Antenna Kit – 15' Coax Cable, Type-F Receiver Connection

The Multi-Code Remote Antenna Kit is designed to improve radio reception and remote-control range for compatible garage door, gate, and access-control receivers equipped with a Type-F coaxial antenna connector.

The kit allows the antenna to be mounted away from the receiver, making it especially useful when the receiver is installed inside a metal operator enclosure, concrete building, equipment room, or other location that can reduce radio signal strength.

A 15-foot coaxial cable provides flexibility to position the antenna higher or farther away from signal-blocking structures.

Why Use a Remote Antenna?

Radio receivers installed inside metal operator housings, steel buildings, concrete structures, or other obstructed locations may experience reduced transmitter range.

A remote antenna allows the receiving element to be moved to a more favorable location where the radio signal can reach it more effectively.

This may help improve:

• Remote operating range

• Signal consistency

• Reception from vehicles

• Performance around metal structures

• Reliability at commercial gates and garage doors

Common Applications

Suitable for compatible:

• Commercial garage door receivers

• Residential garage door receivers

• Automatic gate receivers

• Parking access systems

• Warehouse doors

• Apartment and HOA gates

• Commercial access-control systems

• Receivers mounted inside metal operator enclosures

Receiver Compatibility

This antenna kit is designed for radio receivers equipped with a Type-F coaxial antenna connection.

It may be compatible with various Multi-Code and other compatible receiver models using this connector style.

Before ordering, verify:

• Receiver model

• Antenna connector type

• Available mounting location

• Required cable length

Do not order based only on the receiver brand.

A receiver without a compatible Type-F antenna connector may require a different antenna or adapter.

Installation

The 15-foot coaxial cable allows the antenna to be positioned away from the receiver.

For best performance:

• Mount the antenna in an unobstructed location when possible

• Keep it away from large metal surfaces when practical

• Avoid sharply bending or crushing the coaxial cable

• Secure the cable to prevent movement or damage

• Confirm the Type-F connection is properly tightened

• Test transmitter range after installation

Package Contents

Includes:

• 1 Remote Antenna

• 1 – 15 ft Coaxial Cable

• 1 Mounting Bracket

Receiver, transmitter, operator, connectors, and other radio-control accessories are sold separately.

Important Note

A remote antenna can improve reception when poor range is caused by receiver location or signal obstruction, but it cannot correct problems caused by an incompatible transmitter, incorrect frequency, incorrect DIP-switch programming, weak transmitter battery, or faulty receiver.

Always verify radio-system compatibility before installation.
