Taoglas MA585 (Comet) 2:1 Permanent Mount Puck Antenna with 5G/4G & GPS

Taoglas MA585 2-in-1 Puck Style Antenna with 5G/4G Cellular and GNSS, IP67, 2 meter Cables

The Taoglas Comet MA585 is a low-profile, puck-style, screw-mount antenna. It contains one 5G/4G high-performance antenna for use in cellular systems and one GNSS antenna. Through innovative antenna engineering techniques, it covers all worldwide cellular frequencies from 600 MHz to 6 GHz and GNSS Bands, BeiDou, GPS and GLONASS with stable gain and high efficiency, usually difficult to achieve in smaller style antennas. 

A key differentiator of the Comet MA585 is its ability to maintain strong performance when mounted directly on metallic enclosures. Competing antennas typically experience severe efficiency losses in the lower 5G/4G bands (617 - 960 MHz), but the Comet was designed specifically to overcome this challenge. Leveraging Taoglas’ proprietary all-metal PIFA design and advanced bandwidth optimization techniques, the MA585 delivers consistently higher efficiency and more reliable radiation even when installed on metal housings with feed cables routed inside.

This robust design ensures dependable connectivity where other low-profile antennas fail, making the Comet series particularly well-suited for a variety of uses.

Typical Applications Include:

• Telematics, Transport and Fleet Management
• Gateways and Routers
• Digital Signage, Smart Kiosks and Point of Sale Terminals
• First Responders, Public Safety and Critical Communications
• Construction, Mining, and Heavy Equipment

The MA585 has been designed as a permanent screw mount solution. This allows it to be utilized and installed in applications where a strong and secure mechanical attachment is required, ensuring reliable performance even in high-vibration or harsh environments. The GNSS and cellular MIMO connections feature 2m of TGC1.5DS coaxial cable with SMA(M) connectors as standard.
