**PANORAMA ANTENNA BAT Series SW3-773 Internal MiMo 4G and 5G Antenna with Optional GPS-GNSS and WiFi
**
Introduction
The BAT series is a line of internal mount MiMo LTE/Cellular, optional dual band WIFI and optional GPS/GNSS Antennas. The standard GPS/GNSS LNA gain, where present, is 26dB.
| Electrical Safety Note
This product contains an active GPS/GNSS antenna (part number SR8-HG26). Rated
voltage: 3-5VDC Rated current: 20mA maximum
The supply to this device must be provided with overcurrent protection of
1A maximum.

Mounting requirements and selecting location
The BAT antenna is designed to be fitted on or under a vehicle dashboard, located as far forward as possible to optimise view to the sky. When fitting under the panel, a position should be selected to ensure there is no metal close to the antenna inside the panel.
The optimum orientation for the antenna is to be fitted flat and the UP side must be facing towards the sky. It can also fitted on or under any other non- metallic panel in a position that allows an adequate view of the sky. Ensure that the antenna is mounted a minimum 10cm (4″) away from any metal structure. The antenna must not be fitted adjacent to or in near proximity of one of the vehicle electronic control units (ECU).
Mounting the antenna
Note: It is recommended that the installation is not carried out if the temperature is less than 50°F (10°C) as the ideal temperature for the pad bonding is 70°F (21°C)to 100°F (37°C).
Before fitting, ensure that both the antenna face and mounting surface are clean and free of grease use the supplied alcohol swab and allow the cleaned surfaces to dry before proceeding to fit the adhesive pad.
Select the appropriate pad for your installation – the complete pad can be used for bonding the bottom (flat) face to the mounting panel. The smaller insert pad can be used to mount the antenna under a panel using the top face (marked `UP’ ) Remove the protective backing from the adhesive pad, place on correct face of the antenna, to enable the UP side to face the sky and apply adequate even pressure to adhere.
Remove the protective backing from the antenna pad, position the antenna and apply adequate pressure to ensure that it has adhered correctly.
Routing and terminating coaxial cable(s)
Route the coaxial cables away from the antenna, taking care that the cables do not apply stress to the antenna mounting. It is advisable to observe a minuimum bend radius of 25mm (1″) when installing the Cell/LTE and WIFI cables. The cables should be routed so that they do not obstruct a moving vehicle component.
The cables must not be routed in front of any airbag devices note that these may be located behind the windscreen pillar trim and the side of the roof head lining, depending on vehicle specification.
Commission and test
Check LTE/Cellular and WiFi cable(s):
- Carry out VSWR check both feeds should measure <2.5:1.
Check GPS/GNSS cable:
- Check the GPS/GNSS cable with DC to measure high resistance
- Connect the GPS/GNSS cable to the GPS/GNSS receiver and check for satellite acquisition.
Notices
| DO NOT
-
install on conductive surfaces the antenna is not suitable for mounting on metal surfaces.
Please note for vehicle installations that metalized glass may also cause significant de-tuning. -
operate the transmitter when someone is within 20cm (8″) of the antenna.
-
operate the equipment in an explosive atmosphere.
-
chew parts or put them in mouth, keep away from unsupervised children.
