So, what happens is that i have a cheap wireless card ( TP-Link TL-WN751ND) with a removable antenna. I want to buy a better antenna. Something between TP-Link TL-ANT2424B or and TP-Link TL-ANT2412D.
I wanna know if my cheap wireless card can handle this expensive Antenna. Thanks!

Yes and no. The are technically compatible they have different connectors. It depends what your goal is. Generally the microwave cable that is low loss is very expensive.

If your goal is to mount outdoor stuff or get signal from far away a outdoor bridge is a much better investment. You can get the outdoor bridge built into a equivalent antenna for about the same price. When you include microwave antenna cable it is generally cheaper to use a outdoor bridge.

Both ubiquiti or engenious sell many models.
