Magnetic base antenna 7dBi with SMA tap

Magnetic base antenna with contact with SMA male

A broadband magnetic base antenna with 7dBi gain that is easy to place on e.g. a windowpane. Provides good amplification on all 3G and 4G networks. This magnetic base fits all 3G and 4G networks in use today.

Conditions for good reception Place the magnetic base outdoors, on a flat and magnetic surface. In many cases, the window sill is a good location. If you live in a villa with an upper floor, put it as high as you can. This creates the best conditions for the antenna to get good reception. It is also good if it is on the same side of the house that faces the base station, if you are unsure, try to find the best location.

Suitable for modems and routers with SMA connector such as Huawei E5186 or B593 .

The antenna is 450mm long including magnetic base.

Frequency range 700-900/1800-2100/2400-2700 MHz (see explanation of frequency band below)

Gain 7 dBi

Impedance 50 Ohm

VSWR 2.0:1

Cable RG174, 4.8m

Magnetic foot 60 mm with strong magnet

Tips for extra good reception, if your modem has double antenna inputs, you can advantageously use 2 antennas to maximize reception. Place the antennas about 1m apart.

Frequency bands When choosing an antenna, pay attention to which frequency bands the antenna supports. The following frequencies are used today in mobile broadband:

450 MHZ - Net1 (CDMA450) not compatible with GSM, 3G-UMTS or 4G-LTE 800 MHz - 4G/LTE outside the big cities. Provides long range. 900 MHz - Primarily 2G/GSM but expansion is underway for 3G and 4G. Provides long range. 1800 MHz - 2G/GSM. In the future (2013-2014) expansion of 4G on this band will occur 2170 MHz - 3G in all of Sweden normally up to 3 km range. 2600 MHz - 4G/LTE in Large cities /City. Extremely short range. Often less than 500m.
