1. Introduction
The 'Stream 2' - MA.209 GPS/GLONASS/GALILEO, LTE Cellular antenna is a low
profile, heavy-duty, fully IP67 waterproof external M2M antenna for use by RF
professionals in telematics, transportation and remote monitoring applications.
The Stream Two is unique in the market as it combines the highest possible
efficiency and peak gain for GPS/GLONASS/GALILEO and all cellular bands in
4G/3G/2G in a low profile compact format for mounting via high quality first tier
automotive approved 3M adhesive foam.
The patent pending design incorporates internally a custom Taoglas 35mm patch
antenna on an extended integral ground-plane to deliver more than 3.5dBiC gain.
A front-end SAW filter dramatically reduces radiated spurious emissions. The
extended ground-plane used with an innovative internal cellular PIFA also
enables the unique wide-band 4G/3G/2G response to deliver the highest
performance possible, at 3 meters cable length. Nothing else out there comes
close in terms of consistency of efficiency and peak gain at all cellular bands,
with an awesome 70%+ at the LTE 700MHz band, again including 3 meters of
cable loss. High antenna efficiencies are absolutely critical in today’s 4G and 3G
systems to achieving targeted data-speeds and coverage.
All this is done while still maintaining 20dB isolation between antennas. The
Stream uses high-shielded PTFE dielectric ultra-low loss cables that maintain low
attenuation at all frequency bands, and high noise rejection, with an average
loss of only 0.3dB per meter (0.1dB per foot), compared to 0.7dB for RG58 and
1.2dB for RG174. Because of this, the Stream maximizes chances of passing
PTCRB and network approvals first time. The Stream Two works best when
attached to plastic or glass, but can also be used on metal if some foam spacing
of 40mm or more is added.
