The MA952 Guardian is a next generation 5in1 combination antenna. It is the world-first panel antenna designed for IoT Gateway and Router devices with multiple wireless technologies. This antenna delivers powerful MIMO antenna technology for Sub-6GHz 5G/4G bands covering 600MHz – 6GHz. This antenna is designed for 5G/4G bands worldwide (including 3G & 2G fallback) for access points, terminals, and routers. CAT-M1 and NB-IoT and the recently introduced 600MHz Extended LTE Band 71 are also covered. This wide bandwidth enables designers to cover a wide range of technologies by installing a single antenna installation. The MA952 Guardian also covers GPS/GLONASS/BeiDou/Galileo bands along with 4 5G/4G MIMO antennas for superb location accuracy. It is a heavy-duty, fully IP67 waterproof external M2M antenna available in both wall and adhesive mount versions.
Typical use cases include:
- IoT Gateways and Routers
- HD Video Streaming
- Transportation
5G/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 among these antennas to prevent self-interference. Low loss cables used to keep efficiency high over long cable lengths. The GPS-GLONASS-GALILEO-BEIDOU active antenna has been carefully designed for excellent performance across all L1 GNSS bands, leading to higher location accuracy and stability of tracking in urban environments.
The housing is IP67 waterproof and the adhesive mount version comes with 3M adhesive. The antenna can be mounted internally or externally on a vehicle. The MA952 comes with 3m, low loss TGC-200 coaxial cables for the LTE antennas as standard and 3m, RG-174 on the GNSS connection.
