Otto Wireless Solutions has introduced its range of high-gain LTE antennas, aptly named ‘Ottennas’, into the market. “The first two models have been strategically chosen to cater for a wide variety of customers, catering for industrial and commercial needs,” explains the company’s sales and marketing director, Chris Viveiros.
With the addition of a small RF adaptor, the Ottennas become compatible with most of the popular commercial LTE routers, and provide users with an immediate enhancement to their signal strength, leading to an improvement in download speeds and general wireless connectivity stability.
“Otto Wireless Solutions has used its extensive experience in the industrial connectivity and IoT market to select and introduce these products to the commercial market,” Viveiros says. “In order to solve the problem of how to install the antenna, we have taken the market initiative, and ensured that the product is presented to the customer well packaged, with all installation instructions simplified and printed on the side of the box.”
The first products are available for sale at www.otto.co.za and a short introductory video, which was filmed when the first product arrived, can be viewed at https://youtu.be/FElMhtfcmFE. The first models in the range are a directional MIMO, 11 dB device (part number LTE-MD-11) and an omnidirectional MIMO, 6 dB device (part number LTE-MO-6).
