Poynting's OMNI-292 is a high performance omnidirectional antenna designed for 4G LTE. With a wideband collinear design the antenna covers the full 700 to 2700 MHz cellular frequency range at an idealised 6 to 8 dBi gain across the bands.
The antenna's large collinear radiators provide an exceptional degree of radiation stability, with near-perfect 360° patterns.
In addition to three 4G / 5G bands between 698 to 960 MHz, 1695 to 2200 MHz, 2300 to 2700 MHz, the antenna also covers 2.4 GHz making it ideal as a WiFi and Bluetooth Low Energy base station.
The antenna has an integrated N Female connector at its base so that a feeder cable can be attached without any additional losses.
Recommended Use
Omnidirectional 4G antennas remain popular even in LTE-A Pro 2x2 and 4x4 MIMO applications as nominal MIMO can be achieved with V-V-V-V polarisation configurations, provided spatial diversity rules are observed.
While the antenna can be operated as a 915 MHz LPWA or 2.4 GHz base station, it's important to recognise wideband antennas achieve their wide operating frequency ranges through a detuning process which results in lower TRP efficiency in each individual band. Single-band or dual-band collinear antennas still remain the best choice for non-cellular applications.
