Poynting Ultra Wideband 11dBi 3G+4G+5G LPDA Antenna - 700-7200MHz

Key Features

• Exceptional high gain, uni-directional antenna

• Ultra-wideband coverage from 617 to 7200 MHz

• Wall or pole mountable for ease of installation 

• Weatherproof and waterproof design (IP65)

• Lightweight and rugged design

Additional Information

• The true brilliance of this engineering masterpiece is its extremely wideband design - operating on two extremely wide bands 694-1000MHz and 1500-3000MHz

• Coupled with its robust durable construction, this log periodic dipole array (LPDA) antenna will stand up to the challenge of the ever-changing network of frequencies for years to come.

Usage

• The LPDA-500 is Poynting’s new and improved log-periodic dipole array (LPDA) antenna. The LPDA-500 is a high-gain, ultra-wideband, uni-directional antenna that operate from 617 to 7200 MHz. The ultra-wideband coverage includes current 5G and future cellular bands as well as Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi 6E bands.

• The LPDA-500 has consistent high-gain performance across the entire band of operation, making the antenna suitable for the deployment of various wireless communication systems. Our previous LPDA has been successfully used in extreme weather environments across the world with close to zero failures, with the new LPDA-500 being no different.

• The LPDA-500 comes standard with a new and improved mounting bracket, which can be rotated at 45° intervals. This will allow for ease of installation and the customer will be able to mount multiple LPDA-500 antennas and orientate them in a MIMO configuration, i.e., vertical, and horizontal or ±45°. Poynting Antennas are well known for designing future proof antennas and the new LPDA-500 is no different.

Better for hilly areas

• Lower gain Yagi antennas are ideal for areas where hills are very close to your location (within about 2km)

• Hills create a multipath environment - transmissions that bounce off trees or terrain at an acute angle cause signal echos

• Having travelled a further distance than a straight line transmission these signals are delayed, and to a simple receiver would be nothing more than interference

• However, thanks to clever technology used in cellular communications, multipath signals can recovered by your modem's RAKE combiner (or with cyclic prefix for OFDMA based systems)

• A RAKE receiver consists of a series of sub-radios which read the incoming signal at different delay periods (typically one chip in WCDMA) and then combined to result in a higher quality signal

• This antenna rests at ground potential, providing improved lightning protection and reduced precipitation static noise

• Termination is via your choice of an 'N' female coaxial connector fitted to a short LMR195 cable tail, or SMA male connector fitted to a 10 metre low loss LMR195 cable

• We recommend the use of LMR400 grade cable when using this antenna on 4G due to it's high frequency

• 4G technology employs MIMO technology, which requires two antennas to function at full capacity - when receiving a 4G signal greater than two bars consider purchasing two antennas to maximise speed. Only one antenna is used on 3G.
