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
- A mobile network standard used for high-speed wireless data links. If a project uses a 5G gateway, its power system must be able to supply enough current reliably for outdoor or remote operation.
- 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
- A threaded coaxial connector commonly used for antennas. It matters because you need antennas with matching SMA connectors, or suitable adapters, for the LTE and GNSS antenna ports.
