Hi to all!
I am using ekahau pro, for wifi planification! Now, I need to plan wifi network based on cap ac, and also wsap ac, but I do not have profiles for this AP's. The only two profiles are for omnitik! So who can help me maybe someone already use them or have found another way! Or maby someone have detailed antenna's parrameters for this devices? based on them I can setup manually!
Thank you very much!

Am sure it must be a great Software ...
Well yes there is no pattern for Cap, however it is an Omni antenna... So i guess you could go with something generic...

Yes it can be done with generic, but it will be not accurate!
I need at least antenna diagram, hope somebody from mikrotik can help!

They dont exist, so why dont you just look at the spec sheet and see what wifi chip it has, and therefore you will be able to ascertain the pattern that same chip has in other devices and you will have your pattern/numbers. If it will be close enough unless you think that Mikrotik screws with their customers and have developed an omni directional radiation pattern that looks like a penis.

@anav the antenna defines the radiation pattern, not the chip itself...

Good to know, but how much information do we have on the antenna........ If we knew the physical attributes (make model number etc.............)
Looking at this youtube..... ANT401??
