    That’s just an AP. That’s not a directional antenna for a wireless bridge. You can even read the AP sticker on it.

      I think they were trying to say that the cage in front with the AP behind, acts as a directional antenna. Similar to how Yagi antennas have metal elements that aren’t connected in front of the actual antenna.

      But I don’t know enough antenna theory to know if that’s correct.
