Description
Poynting PUCK-4
Poynting’s new PUCK range offers a small profile antenna for use in the IoT/M2M, Smart Meter, Smart Utilities, Transportation, Marine and the Agricultural/Farming markets. The PUCK-4 consists of a 3-in-1 antenna system within a single housing, featuring 2X2 MIMO LTE, and GPS/GLONASS. The 2X2 Cellular MIMO antennas (for 2G/3G/4G) cover the 698 to 3800 MHz band, this includes the most popular international LTE bands. The third antenna is a high-performance active GPS/GLONASS system operating at temperatures as low as -40ºC. The PUCK exceeds the performance of many competitors due to the attention to design of this high-performance antenna.
The radiation patterns of all radiating elements provide an excellent balance between omnidirectionality, pattern diversity and good radiation abilities at the desired elevation, which is often overlooked in such a small size antenna. Despite its small size, this antenna provides excellent performance especially at the higher frequency bands, where performance is critical for LTE throughput and connection stability. This antenna is designed so that both the LTE ports are connected to the router/device to ensure the best performance. Please see other derivatives of the PUCK range that are more suitable for a SISO application.
