The Poynting XPOL2 is Poynting’s third generation “V3” of this very popular Cross Polarised (XPOL), cellular band, 2x2 MIMO antenna. The antenna enclosure effectively looks the same as the second generation “V2” but has been completely redesigned on the inside. We have used advanced metamaterial technology, making use of Artificial Magnetic Conductors (AMC) and new registered/patent pending radiator configuration, which is proving to yield exceptional improvements in bandwidth and gain. Radiation patterns of this antenna are exceptionally well controlled, further adding to the performance of the antenna. The XPOL-2-5G antenna includes the newer 3400 - 3800 MHz bands, which were not previously covered by our V2 and is suitable for 2G, 3G, 4G & 5G. This antenna performs exceptionally well in the following frequency bands: 698 – 960 MHz, 1700 – 2170 MHz, 2300 – 2700 MHz & 3400 – 3800 MHz. In addition to the new bands, the gain in the 1700 MHz and 2.7 GHz is around 3 dB higher than the “V2” over the same frequency bands! Our “V2” antenna already outperformed most competitors over these bands, so this substantial improvement in gain shows the benefits of the new advanced materials and novel radiator design. So, if it was a car, we installed an entirely new technology engine producing twice the power under the bonnet – it may look the same but just wait until you turn the ignition on!

Product Features:

• The antenna employs advanced metamaterial technology to achieve exceptional performance across the main 4G and 5G bands.
• It delivers high gain relative to its compact size for robust signal reception.
• The wideband 2×2 MIMO design supports both 4G and 5G networks for future-proof connectivity.
• It is backwards compatible with 2G, 3G, and LTE bands while remaining fully 5G-ready.
• The enclosure houses two cross-polarised antennas to optimise LTE performance under challenging conditions.
• The weather- and dust-resistant IP65-rated housing also provides vandal resistance for outdoor installations.
• The antenna features an N-type female port for flexible cable selection (sold separately).

Application Areas:

• The antenna is ideal for Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) deployments, including use with devices such as the Telstra Netgear Nighthawk.
• It enhances consumer LTE and 5G internet connectivity in residential and small-business environments.
• It improves signal reception for urban and rural households, boosting indoor coverage.
• The antenna facilitates LTE and 5G data distribution for agricultural and farming applications.
• It provides reliable telemetry access for power, energy, and water utility networks.
• The robust design suits oil and gas communication systems in harsh field conditions.
• It serves municipal and government installations requiring dependable broadband links.
• It can be paired with repeaters and coverage-enhancement amplifiers to extend network reach in challenging areas.
