Description

The Taoglas GuardianX MA9908 is a low profile heavy duty, fully IP67 waterproof external antenna. It incorporates eight elements under a single housing, supporting the following technologies concurrently:

  • 4x4 MIMO 4G LTE / 5G NR from 600 to 6000 MHz
  • 3x3 MIMO Dual Band WiFi (2.4 + 5 GHz)
  • Active GNSS for GPS/GLONASS/Galileo operation

When paired with a good quality modem this one antenna unit is capable of establishing a high throughput data connection over the 4G or 5G network, providing high speed dual-band WiFi network, while being tracked over GPS.

Variable performance is typical of highly compact antennas with limited VSWR and isolation performance. Datasheet must be studied carefully to ensure you recognise the limitations of this antenna, particularly on 5G bands. If in doubt please discuss your application with our team prior to purchasing.

Typical applications include:

  • Passenger Bus / Rail / Air Applications.
  • Automotive and Heavy Equipment Vehicle Tracking and Telematics
  • First Responder and Emergency Services
