Hello,
I have a customer that wishes to deploy the FAP-433G access point in a facility which requires replacing the dipole 2.4/5 GHz antennas and using patch antenna similar to the FANT-04ABGN-0606-P-R and a omnidirectional antenna similar to FANT-04ABGN-0606-O-R.
When I search documentation on the 433G is states that the 433G supports third-party antennas.
My question is will a patch antenna from Hubbell/AccelTex (AATS-01110 former catalog number ATS-OP-245-6-4RPSP-36) and theM6060060MO1D43620 omni-directional antenna work?

Hello,
Thank you for using the Community Forum. I will seek to get you an answer or help. We will reply to this thread with an update as soon as possible.
Thanks,
A simple way to find out is by comparing the physical specification of the antennas that can be found in the Datasheet. I guess this are the important parts:
The coverage patterns need to be also checked. Fortinet doesn't have a compatibility matrix or test results done with 3rd party antennas.
If this is the case can I use the FANT-04ABGN-0606-P-R and the FANT-04ABGN-0606-O-R with FAP-433G or does it have to be a third party antenna?
Yes, using Fortinet Antennas is recommended. You can also discuss with your Fortinet local representative before placing the order but they appear compatible.
FAP 433G -> Antenna Type Support RP-SMA (4 total): Dual Band Antenna (4)
FANT-04ABGN-0606-P-R -> Connectors 4 x RPSMA Male
FANT-04ABGN-0606-O-R -> Connectors 4 x RPSMA Male or 4 x N-Type Male
