Poynting SWIRL-8 13:1 Antenna with 8x8 MIMO 5G/LTE, 4x4 MIMO WiFi, GPS

Poynting SWIRL-8 X-Polarized, Omnidirectional 5G/LTE 8x8 MIMO Antenna Array

Poynting Antennas SWIRL antenna is designed for both maritime and mobility applications. The SWIRL-8 offers 8x cross-polarised cellular antennas, covering frequencies from 617 to 6000 MHz with a peak gain of 6dBi, 4x dual-band Wi-Fi antennas (2.4 GHz and 5 to 7.2 GHz), and 1x dual-band GNSS antenna for L1 and L5 constellations. The SWIRL-8 boasts a compact design with dimensions of 382 mm in diameter and 127 mm in height, and comes with a IK08 and IP69K ratings, ensuring durability in harsh environments. While the SWIRL is primarily aimed at maritime applications, it is also suitable for various mobility applications, making it a versatile choice for diverse connectivity needs.

With dual polarization, it provides up to double the data rates compared to single-polarized antennas.

The SWIRL-8 can be transformed into a Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) device by incorporating the SWIRL-BASE. This cast aluminium base is specifically designed to house 5G routers, with available router space of 231 x 193 x 50 mm (vertical) or 293.5 x 148.5 x 50 mm (horizontal). Installing the router within the base reduces coaxial cable runs, thereby improving performance by minimizing signal loss. With its superior high-gain performance, versatile mounting options, and the flexibility to function as either an antenna-only unit or a high-end CPE unit, the SWIRL-8 sets a new standard in connectivity and durability.
