QuickerTek announced Monday four new directional wireless antennas for Power Mac G5 and G4 PCs that deliver three to five times the wireless range.
The new Corner Antennas -- name for their ability to actually be mounted in the corner of any room -- work with Macintosh OS X and Apple AirPort networks as well as any other 802.11b through 802.11g wireless network systems.
"A corner mount directs the wireless signal toward the AirPort Base Station or access point, providing the flexibility needed in some network layouts," the company said in a prepared statement.
The antennas are available in both 12 and 14dbi strengths and range in price from US$80 to $100.
