In today's hyper-connected world, reliable data and precise location are not just luxuries—they are operational necessities. For industrial IoT (IIoT), fleet management, and remote asset tracking, the demand for a single, robust, and high-performance solution has never been greater.
Introducing the Dual-Function 4G LTE & GPS Bracket Antenna, a rugged, high-gain solution engineered to deliver exceptional cellular connectivity and pinpoint location accuracy in the most demanding environments. This antenna combines a powerful 5dBi 4G LTE element with a high-precision 1575.42MHz active GPS L1 element, all housed in a durable, weatherproof enclosure with a versatile L-bracket for easy installation.
Stop compromising between signal strength and location services. This all-in-one antenna streamlines your deployment, reduces installation complexity, and provides the persistent, high-quality connection your critical applications depend on.
Unmatched Connectivity: High-Gain 4G LTE & Precision GPS
This antenna is not just a single-function component; it's a comprehensive connectivity hub. It integrates two distinct, high-performance antennas into one streamlined unit, ensuring both cellular data and satellite navigation signals are captured with maximum efficiency.
Blazing-Fast 4G LTE Performance (5dBi Gain)
At the core of its data capabilities is a high-gain 5dBi 4G LTE antenna. This powerful element is optimized for all major 4G/LTE cellular bands (including 3G/2G fallback), covering a broad frequency spectrum from 698-960MHz to 1710-2700MHz.
What does 5dBi gain mean for your application?
Superior Signal Strength: The 5dBi gain significantly boosts signal reception and transmission, pulling in weak signals from distant cell towers. This is critical for deployments in rural areas, fringe network zones, or complex urban environments.
Faster Data Throughput: A stronger, more stable signal (higher signal-to-noise ratio) allows your modems and routers to negotiate higher data rates. This is essential for data-heavy applications like video surveillance backhaul, large data-log transfers, and real-time remote monitoring.
Enhanced Reliability: By minimizing dropped connections and packet loss, this antenna ensures your data gets through the first time. For M2M and IoT applications where uptime is measured in dollars, this reliability is paramount.
This LTE antenna element provides a true omnidirectional pattern, making it easy to install without the need for complex signal alignment.
Pinpoint GPS/GNSS Accuracy (1575.42±3MHz)
Simultaneously, the antenna provides mission-critical location data via its integrated active GPS/GNSS module. Tuned precisely to the 1575.42±3MHz L1 band, this is the gold standard for high-accuracy civilian and commercial positioning.
This isn't a simple passive GPS antenna. It features a built-in, high-performance Low-Noise Amplifier (LNA) with an estimated 28dB gain. This active LNA is crucial as it amplifies the extremely faint satellite signals at the antenna before sending them down the cable.
This active design provides:
Rapid Time to First Fix (TTFF): Your GPS receivers will acquire a satellite lock significantly faster, even in challenging conditions like urban canyons or dense foliage.
High-Precision Tracking: The clean, amplified signal allows for consistent, accurate location data, vital for turn-by-turn navigation in fleet vehicles or precise positioning of high-value assets.
Excellent Signal Integrity: The LNA and precise band-pass filtering (±3MHz) reject "out-of-band" interference from other RF sources, ensuring your GPS data remains clean and reliable.
Built for Demanding Environments: Rugged Bracket Mount Design
A high-performance antenna is only useful if it can survive the environment it's designed for. This antenna is built to last, featuring a heavy-duty L-bracket mount and a rugged, all-weather enclosure.
Versatile Installation: The stainless steel L-bracket is a key feature, offering unparalleled installation flexibility. It can be easily secured to a wall, the side of an enclosure, a vehicle chassis, or a mast/pole (with U-bolts, not included). This makes it ideal for everything from a vending machine to a construction vehicle.
Rugged & Weatherproof: The antenna housing is constructed from high-impact, UV-resistant ABS plastic. This material won't break down or become brittle after years of sun exposure. The entire unit is sealed to an IP67 rating, making it fully dust-tight and waterproof, capable of withstanding driving rain, snow, and extreme temperatures.
Low-Profile & Durable: While rugged, the design remains compact enough to not be overly obtrusive, reducing wind load and the risk of damage. It is engineered to withstand the constant shock and vibration associated with mobile (vehicular) or industrial applications.
Streamlined Applications for a Connected World
The dual-action capability of this 4G LTE + GPS antenna makes it the perfect solution for a wide range of M2M (Machine-to-Machine) and IoT applications.
Fleet Management & Telematics: Install on trucks, buses, or delivery vans to provide real-time vehicle tracking, driver behavior monitoring, and a stable data connection for dispatch and job management software.
Asset Tracking & Logistics: Monitor the location and status of high-value mobile assets, such as construction equipment, shipping containers, and rental machinery, even in remote locations.
Industrial IoT (IIoT) & Remote Monitoring: Connect to RTUs, PLCs, and sensors in remote facilities (e.g., utility substations, oil & gas sites, weather stations). Use the 4G for data backhaul and the GPS for location-stamping data or providing a precise time source (NTP).
Smart Kiosks & Digital Signage: Provide reliable connectivity for remote content updates, advertising, and payment processing for smart vending machines, digital billboards, and public information kiosks.
Security & Surveillance: Use as the primary data uplink for remote CCTV cameras or security systems, with the GPS data providing location verification for alarms and footage.
