Description
It's truly not often that an antenna surprises our team. Manufactured in Taiwan, this antenna provides true wideband operation across the full 3G and 4G range 700 to 2700 MHz. The antenna has been optimised for operation across the lower cellular band to provide best performance on 4G frequencies, including long range 700 MHz 4GX and 5G 850 MHz Telstra NR850.
The antenna provides a 5 dBi gain across the 700 to 900 MHz band, and 4 dBi gain across 1695 to 2700 MHz - a very difficult achievement for this design type.
During independent laboratory testing the antenna consistently demonstrated excellent performance. The antenna has a reasonably sturdy design and its thin visual profile goes unnoticed to the passer-by. The antenna is an ideal choice for IoT applications, such as NB-IoT and LTE-M.
- 5 dBi gain across lower bands 698 to 960 MHz
- 4 dBi gain across mid bands 1695 to 2700 MHz
- Ideal for IoT and industrial M2M applications, such as metering and monitoring
- True wideband 4G, covering the entire band with high radiated efficiency
- Ground plane dependent
- 3 metre RG-58 cable with an SMA Male connector
