As mobile networks become more complicated, the need for multifunction devices expands. To support newer and legacy devices on the same network, you need antennas that can handle a broad signal range without faltering. In addition, they have to be reliable in harsh conditions to justify their cost. For this situation, you need a cellular antenna like the sharkfin 6001120 from Semtech (Sierra Wireless). The 2x2 MIMO cellular antenna elements, which operate from 698 to 3800 MHz, accept bands for 4G, 3G, and even 2G. A maximum input of 25 watts allows it to cover large ranges.
The 6001120 antenna is extremely tough, and you’ll have a hard time finding an environment that can defeat it. The radome housing withstands the worst weather and brutal mobile environments. It operates in temperatures ranging from -40 to 80°C, and it’s IP66-rated, meaning it is protected from water and fine dust ingress. The 6001120 comes with two 4-meter long low loss double shielded cables terminating in SMA plugs. The rugged design and through-hole mounting make it ideal for emergency vehicles, trucking fleets, and delivery vans.
What the Semtech 6001120 can do for your network is impressive, but the antenna can’t run the show alone. Fortunately, Westward Sales can pair it with the correct Semtech router to fulfill your cellular data needs.
