Quectel Unveils 10 All-in-One Antennas for 5G IoT
11 Nov
Summary
- Quectel introduces ten external combo antennas integrating 5G with other radios.
- These antennas combine multiple elements in a single housing for device makers.
- The portfolio spans compact 2-in-1 to rugged 9-in-1 designs for diverse applications.
Quectel Wireless Solutions has expanded its antenna portfolio with ten new external combo antennas. These integrated units combine 5G connectivity with GNSS, Wi-Fi, or both, offering device manufacturers a streamlined solution. By consolidating multiple radio functionalities into a single housing, Quectel aims to simplify the design, fitting, and testing processes for IoT devices.
The new antenna family features high isolation between elements to minimize self-interference and supports a broad range of 5G frequencies (600MHz to 6000MHz), while remaining backward compatible with older cellular network standards. The designs accommodate various mounting options, including screw and adhesive, and boast outdoor durability with IP65 to IP69K ratings.
This versatile range is tailored for demanding applications such as fleet vehicles, public safety equipment, and smart city infrastructure. Ruggedized models with IP69K enclosures are built to withstand harsh environments found in transport, mining, and industrial sites. Quectel also offers solutions for fixed customer premises equipment (CPE) and gateways requiring high-band performance.
Quectel's comprehensive antenna offerings can be sourced alongside their IoT modules, providing a complete end-to-end solution from a single supplier. Attendees at Electronica can explore these innovations at Quectel's stand.
