i have AIR-ANT2506 installed on ap's for outside and it seems as though i am loosing signal strentgh on them when i investigate the ant is filling up with water due to the lip that is on them. is there a model better suited for my needs.

a quick question were the antennas mounted with the cable at the bottom ( the antenna mounted vertically) or out the top (antenna mounted Inverted)

inverted

that is probably why they collected water, antennas are designed to be installed with the cable exiting the bottom. there is no drain hole when they are mounted inverted.
when used indoors you would mount them inverted but outdoors right side up.

is there a similar model antenna that is water sealed or do i need to have sealant put around the cable.

as far as i know all outdoor antennas have a weep hole to allow condensation to drain.
