Description
The Taoglas MA963 Guardian is a next-generation 4x4 MIMO antenna. It is the world-first panel antenna designed for gateway and router devices with multiple wireless technologies. This antenna delivers powerful MIMO antenna technology for LTE and Sub-6 GHz 5G bands covering 600 MHz to 6 GHz.
This antenna is designed for 4G and 5G bands worldwide (including 3G fallback) for access points, terminals, and routers. CAT-M1 and NB-IoT and the recently introduced 600 MHz Extended LTE Band 71 are also covered. This wide bandwidth enables designers to cover a wide range of technologies by installing a single antenna installation. It is a heavy-duty, fully IP67 waterproof external M2M antenna available in both wall and adhesive mount versions.
5G wireless applications demand high-speed data uplink and downlink. High efficiency and high gain MIMO antennas are necessary to achieve the required signal to noise ratio and throughput required to solve these challenges.
Taoglas also takes care to have high isolation among these antennas to prevent self-interference. Low loss cables used to keep efficiency high over long cable lengths. The antenna can be mounted internally or externally on a vehicle. The MA963 comes with 3 metres, low loss KSR200-P coaxial cables as standard.
The Taoglas MA963 Guardian 4x4 MIMO 4G-5G Adhesive Antenna is a cutting-edge panel antenna designed for gateway and router devices across multiple wireless technologies. Supporting global 4G and 5G bands, including 3G fallback, CAT-M1, NB-IoT, and the 600 MHz Extended LTE Band 71, this antenna is ideal for access points, terminals, and routers. It offers broad bandwidth coverage from 600 MHz to 6 GHz, allowing for versatile application in a single installation.
Engineered for high-speed data demands of 5G, the MA963 ensures high efficiency and gain, providing robust signal-to-noise ratios and throughput. Its design includes high isolation to prevent self-interference and utilises low loss cables to maintain performance over extended lengths. This antenna is both IP67 waterproof and available in wall and adhesive mount versions, suitable for both internal and external vehicle installations.
Measuring 146 x 134 x 20 mm and weighing 0.45 kg, the antenna is constructed from durable ASA Plastic and operates in temperatures ranging from -40 °C to 85 °C. It features four input ports for reliable RF connections, adhering to ISO 9001 quality standards. With Taoglas' commitment to exceptional design and support, the MA963 is a reliable choice for diverse M2M applications.
