General Description
The Proxicast 3G/4G Aerial is a mid/high-gain 3G/4G Omni-directional antenna.
The “rubber-duck” style aerial is an 11 in. (280 mm) dipole antenna that
provides 5 to 8 dBi of gain for use on all 2G, 3G, and 4G/LTE/xLTE/AWS
frequency bands (698~960, 1710~2170, and 2500~2700 MHz) used by U.S. and
Canadian cellular carriers such as Verizon Wireless, AT&T Wireless, T-Mobile,
Rogers, Bell Mobility and Telus as well as most other cellular operators
worldwide.
The polycarbonate antenna swivels 90 degrees and rotates 360 degrees for
optimal positioning and maximum signal reception and has an integrated SMA
male plug connector and ground plane. This antenna is a smart choice for
mobile or stationary applications where extra gain is required.
Compatible with all SMA-based equipment including modems and routers from
Cisco, Cradlepoint, Digi, Pepwave, Proxicast, Sierra Wireless, Sixnet/Red
Lion, and many others.
Optional magnetic bases make this a stand-alone antenna and provide
compatibility with a wide variety of modems, hotspots, and other cellular
equipment.
For MIMO applications use 2 identical antennas.
