Hi,

In my physical future scenario i will need to relocate one of the RE580D antennas to be in a better place to RECEIVE optimal signal from the host router.

I plan to use one TP-LINK antenna extension cable like TL-ANT24EC5S (5 meters) or TL-ANT24EC3S (3 meters) (or maybe both 8meters) and relocate one original antenna in the end of this extension cable.

My first question is maybe to TP-LINK product specialists:

 

Any of the 3 antennas is used to RECEIVE and TRANSMIT ? or there´s a specific one(s) to prioritized to RECEIVE ?

My option will work ?

relocating one of the antennas ? 

 

I need to leave some antenna(s) in the RE580D unit so they can TRANSMIT to the client devices in the same area around them.

I can imagine the RX and TX signals will decrease but having one antenna in the line of sight of the host router is mandatory to have enough source signal.

I scanned already the source signal optimal place.

 

Can anyone tell me if this kind of situation has been tried ? 

or if you guess it will work, or the problems i will face

 

thank you for your insights

@vbc 

Good day,

Sorry for the delay.

All 3 antennas are used both for receiving and transmitting;

It would work and we could not guarantee the final performance.

Since the TL-ANT24EC5S is mainly for outdoor business-use and for the indoor home-use access point, normally it is not recommended to replace the original antennas or use extension cables;

Thank you very much for your understanding and support.
