The Apex III TG.45 is a 4G / 5G dipole antenna that has been designed to cover all cellular, ISM and Wi-Fi working frequencies in the 600 to 6000 MHz spectrum along with B31 (450 MHz).
Evolved from the already highly successful Apex II TG.35, the TG.45 has the highest wideband efficiency in its range of any terminal antenna on the market today. The extended lower frequency coverage at 450 MHz makes the TG.45 ideal for IoT applications, such as remote monitoring of smart utilities.
The Apex III has been primarily designed for use with 5G and 4G modules and devices that require the highest possible efficiency and peak gain to deliver best in class throughput on all major worldwide cellular bands for access points, terminals and routers. High efficiency is vital for applications such as high speed video and real-time streaming or high capacity MIMO networks on public transportation.
This attractive slim-line antenna is ground plane independent, meaning it does not need to be connected to the ground-plane of a device to radiate efficiently. On the other hand, neither is it seriously detuned by connecting to a ground-plane, thus avoiding a problem notorious to smaller antennas.
It comes with a SMA Male connector and swivel mechanism that allows the antenna to be rotated to fit in tight environments. The 90° hinge structure has been improved and strengthened so that the antenna in a 90° position would not drop down if used in environments prone to vibration.

3D Patterns
3D radiation patterns provide an intuitive view of how an antenna radiates in three dimensions. Unlike simulations, they are developed by taking 1656 measurements across three axes inside a certified laboratory faciity.
