How would you like to maximize your Time Capsule's potential? Yes, even the 802.11n Wi-Fi standard can be taken even further with Quickertek's TriBand Antenna for Time Capsule. Kits go for $129.95 USD, if you want to go with self installation for either the 500 GB or 1TB Time Capsule, while Quickertek will charge $200 USD to do the job for you. $500 USD will net you a Pre-installed 500GB Time Capsule, while the Pre-installed 1TB SKU costs $700 USD.

For an optimal antenna placement, the kit includes triple 3dBi antennas that articulate to point in most directions, thus helping the reception. Having an external setup offers the flexibility of using coaxial cable to put your antennas where the reception/transmission is best, says Quickertek, which means that you can put your antenna array up very high, maximizing its potential.

"Our kit offers the upgraded antenna array and a 4 foot coaxial cable to wring more performance out of the Time Capsule. This is fully compatible with the other 802.11 standards of A, B, and G. The speed will climb much closer to the theoretical yield of 300 megabits per second," the manufacturer reveals.

So, here are your exact options:

Self-Installation Kit, 500 GB - $129.95 USD
