Description

The Skywave 5G Bullbar Antenna has been engineered for the highest possible performance on regional and rural 4G-5G networks. It sports a massive heavy-duty stainless-steel bell-spring for rough corrugations and thick fibreglass whip. Its tapered 27-32 mm fibreglass tube supports a wide PCB radiator which delivers maximum connectivity range with a total height of only 830 mm. We've gone wider not taller.

For serious endurance we've built the removable whip using an IP67 rated 4.3-10 interface, that isolates mechanical stresses from the RF connection, meaning even the harshest outback tracks won't stress the conductor.

Tuned for maximum performance on 4G Band 28 (700 MHz), 5G Band 26 (850 MHz), and 5G Band 8 (900 MHz) the antenna is able to achieve the best possible performance in areas where connectivity really counts. The antenna also supports mid-band frequencies with good performance to 2200 MHz, and unity performance out to 3800 MHz, making sure you remain connected no matter where you go.

This antenna has been designed in Australia by the Powertec team as the ideal companion for Cel-Fi GO. The antenna is supplied pre-terminated and pre-tuned, simply unpack and go.

  • Optimum 5-6 dBi directivity for both outback and hilly areas
  • Expertly manufactured in Taiwan
  • Tuned specifically for rural and remote 4G-5G frequencies
  • 5 metres of cable with an industry standard SMA Male connector.
