LTE terminal antenna

29 May 2019 Telecoms, Datacoms, Wireless, IoT

The hinged TG.55 monopole LTE antenna from Taoglas is primarily designed for use with 4G LTE modules and devices that require high efficiency and peak gain to deliver high throughput on all major cellular (4G/3G/2G) bands worldwide for access points, terminals and routers. The antenna has an SMA (M) connector and swivel mechanism that allows the antenna to be rotated.

The TG.55 exhibits 50~80% efficiency across the wideband 4G LTE and is backwards compatible with 3G and 2G cellular applications such as GSM, LTE, UMTS and Wi-Fi. With high efficiency on every cellular band globally, it is suitable for any device requiring reliable performance in a slim form factor. It is also guaranteed to meet any type of approval or carrier certification requirements from an RF standpoint.

The TG.55 is a fully omnidirectional antenna and is stable across all bands. The swivel and hinge mechanism allow it to be orientated in different directions which helps to avoid other antennas or objects. This also helps with isolation by pointing the antennas in different directions when used in MIMO systems or when other antennas are present on the same device. The antenna blade can swivel 90 degrees from the connector, accommodating different installation configurations.
