MA240LBI001 Datasheet, PDF (2/43 Pages) Taoglas antenna solutions – MA240 Genesis 2 x LTE/GNSS 3in1

1. Introduction
The MA.240 4G Genesis antenna is an omni-directional, fully IP67 waterproof external
M2M antenna for use in telematics, transportation and remote monitoring applications
worldwide. It is designed to be mounted directly on glass or plastic in the interior of
vehicles.
Typical applications
- HD Video over LTE
- First Responder and Emergency Services
- Automotive Vehicle Tracking and Telematics
This unique antenna delivers powerful dual antenna technology for worldwide 4G LTE
bands at 700MHz / 800MHz / 1700MHz / 1800MHz / 2600MHz, plus
GPS/GLONASS/GALILEO for next generation location accuracy.
4G wireless applications demand high speed data uplink and downlink. High efficiency
and high gain antennas are necessary to achieve the required signal to noise ratio and
throughput required to solve these challenges. Taoglas also takes care to have high
isolation between the two LTE antennas to prevent self-interference. Low loss cables
are used to keep efficiency high over long cable lengths. In contrast, smaller LTE
antennas with poorer quality thinner cables will have much reduced efficiency and
isolation, which would lead to a large drop in system throughput or drops, and may
indeed not make a system connection at all.
The GPS/GLONASS/GALILEO antenna has been carefully designed to work equally well
on both GPS/GALILEO and GLONASS bands, leading to higher location accuracy and
stability of tracking in urban environments.
Finally, if your device requires USA LTE certification with an external antenna then the
MA240 is the ideal solution to pass approvals.
Cable length and connector types are customizable. Contact your regional Taoglas
sales office for support.
