This external cellular antenna is designed for 2G, 3G, 4G and 5G modules and devices, making it a handy choice for LTE and wireless networking builds that need a compact, direct-mount antenna.

The hinged design helps with positioning once installed, with rotation available on both the vertical and horizontal planes. This version uses an SMA male connector, suitable for compatible cellular modems, gateways and development boards.

Molex LTE/5G cellular external antennas are built for coverage and reliability, with high efficiency and peak gain across the supported cellular bands.

Features:

Hinge joint allows 90º rotation on the vertical plane and SMA-J connector allows 180º rotation on the horizontal plane.

Specifications:

Minimum Frequency: 698 MHz
Maximum Frequency: 2.69 GHz
Application: Cellular LTE
Gain: 2.3 dBi
Bandwidth: 698 MHz, 2.7 GHz
Number of Bands: 2 Band

Use it with compatible SMA cellular hardware for IoT, remote monitoring, routers, gateways and other wireless networking projects.

Jargon buster

Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.

5G: 5G is the fifth-generation mobile network standard, offering higher-speed, lower-latency wireless data than earlier 4G/LTE networks. 5G modems can move large amounts of data over cellular networks but may draw significant current and need a suitable aerial and reliable power.
IoT: Short for Internet of Things, meaning physical devices that connect to networks or the internet to send data or be controlled remotely. It matters if you want projects such as connected sensors, remote controls or classroom data-logging activities.
SMA: SMA is a small threaded coaxial (RF) connector widely used to attach antennas and other radio-frequency cables. A device with SMA antenna ports needs antennas or pigtails with matching SMA connectors, or a suitable adapter, to connect to them.
