The Taoglas MA990 (Guardian) has been designed to be one of the smallest 9-in-1 combination antennas in the world. It has dual-band GNSS and high performance 5G/4G allowing it to be compatible with the next generation of modules and routers. The MA990 combines all 9 antenna elements in one low-profile heavy-duty, IP67 rated waterproof, adhesive mount external enclosure.
It comes with one active dual-band GPS/GLONASS/BeiDou/Galileo L1/L2 coverage antenna, and 8x8 5G/4G Cellular MIMO antennas. The MA990 has been designed as a low profile solution for IoT andautomotive applications where space is at a premium allowing it to be installed in the headliners of vehicles or on the back window of a vehicle. This is an ideal external combination antenna solution that is used where drilling a hole through the roof of a vehicle or a metal panel for an external antenna is not feasible or desired and can be covertly installed via the adhesive pad supplied with the antenna.
Typical applications include:
The MA990 Guardian has been specifically designed to hit certain 5G bands required for modules. For example, two of its eight cellular MIMO antennas are tuned from 600 to 6000 MHz, while another two are tuned from 3000 to 6000 MHz to cover high-band 5G and C-band/CBRS applications.
