In today's post, we will go over the best Meshtastic Antenna for your device. As you already know guys for any wireless device to function and get a good range antenna is one of the most important things you have to consider. A good quality well-calibrated antenna will help immensely with the range.

GIZONT

GIZONT stands out among the brands we've put to the test. Offering a variety of sizes, their antennas are fully compatible with all frequencies supported by Meshtastic. However, it's important to note that some comments suggest certain listings may not be calibrated perfectly to their frequency, so results may vary. Additionally, GIZONT offers different designs for the same frequency. While they boast 10 dBi gain for their antennas, we remain cautious until we've conducted our own tests.

Our trials focused on 433MHz antennas in lengths of 40cm, 24cm, and 20cm. The standout performers were the 40cm and 24cm antennas, delivering impressive ranges of nearly 1.5 km even within the confines of a high-density urban environment, powered by 17 dBm TX power. The 20cm variant, while slightly trailing with a range of around 800 meters, still showcased commendable performance given the challenging conditions of a city center.

ZIISOR

ZIISOR emerges as another prominent brand frequently recommended by Meshtastic users. While we haven't yet conducted tests on their products, they present enticing options with a diverse range of designs and lengths. Notably, their antennas come with a 90-degree angle option and also offer a version with a direct IPEX connection. They advertise a 3dBi to 4dBi gain, depending on the model. However, it's important to approach these claims with caution, especially when purchasing from platforms like AliExpress where such figures may not always be reliable.

Like GIZONT, ZIISOR antennas are compatible with all frequencies supported by Meshtastic, and we've included links for each frequency for your convenience. While we haven't vetted their performance yet, they present a promising choice for those exploring antenna options.

CDEBTYE

CDEBYTE, also known as EBYTE, is a specialized company in the field, particularly renowned for producing Lora chips, the primary chip utilized by Meshtastic for message transmission and reception. In addition to their chip production, they offer a range of antennas tailored for all three frequencies.

Their offering is straightforward: a single model of a 20cm antenna with a 90-degree angle. They advertise this antenna with a gain ranging from 3.0 dBi to 3.5 dBi. Given their reputation as a well-established company, there's a higher level of trust in the accuracy of their advertised numbers.

While their antenna selection may seem limited compared to other brands, it's worth noting that simplicity often reflects precision. We encountered a comment from a user who tested these antennas, praising their calibration. Whether this reflects exceptional quality assurance or simply a fortunate batch remains to be seen, but it adds to the positive impression of CDEBYTE's offerings.

We hope that our comprehensive review has offered valuable insights to assist you in making a well-informed decision regarding the optimal antenna for your requirements.
