MA241.BI.001 Datasheet, PDF (2/59 Pages) Taoglas antenna solutions – RoHS Compliant

1. Introduction
The MA241 Genesis antenna is an omni-directional, fully IP67 waterproof external
M2M antenna for use in telematics, transportation and remote monitoring applications.
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
This unique antenna delivers powerful MIMO antenna technology for worldwide 4G LTE
bands at 700MHz/800MHz/1700MHz/1800MHz/2600MHz. It enables designers to
use only one antenna that covers all common frequencies for LTE and 4G globally.
4G wireless applications demand high speed data uplink and downlink. High efficiency
and high gain MIMO 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 MIMO antennas to prevent self-interference. Low
loss cables are used to keep efficiency high over long cable lengths. In contrast,
smaller MIMO 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.
Cable length and connector types are customizable. Contact your regional Taoglas
sales office for support.
