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.
This unique antenna delivers powerful MIMO antenna technology for worldwide 4G LTE bands between 700 and 2600 MHz. 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.
