The Taoglas MA256 (Sentinel) is a 3-in-1 adhesive mount combination antenna for use cases requiring worldwide 4G coverage and GPS/Glonass/BeiDou/Galileo for positioning. It covers fallback to 3G/2G bands where 4G coverage is not available and also covers Cat M1/LTE-M & NB-IoT bands. 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.
Typical applications for the MA256 include: Automotive Vehicle Tracking, Telematics, Video Streaming, and Robotics/Autonomous. It was designed to be mounted directly onto glass or plastic and can be mounted internally or externally on vehicles with high quality 3M double sided adhesive. The PC/ABS enclosure is IP67 waterproof.
