RFI's new FWA-XPOL 5G Directional Panel Antenna is specifically designed for Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) of cellular networks. This cross polarized dipole based DC-grounded antenna supports LTE & 5G technologies over a frequency range of 698 to 3800 MHz. This frequency support enabled the antenna to be compatible with all operators in Australia. The antenna supports 2x2 MIMO operation which increased data speed significantly compared to SISO antennas. Twin HFT195 cable each 10m in length and terminated with an SMA-Male connector fitted with this antenna. Other available cable & connector options are:

• 30cm Black RG141 2 x Integrated N female connectors
• 30cm Black RG141 2 x Integrated 4.3-10 female connectors

FWA-XPOL antenna can be mounted on a pole. The antenna offers the narrowest azimuth beamwidth in its form factor with sidelobes typically less than 20dB for 1710-2700 and 3400-3800 MHz.

Key Features:

• Supports 2x2 MIMO operation on LTE & 5G
• Covers 698-960, 1710-2700 and 3400-3800 MHz
• Azimuth beamwidth of 26 degree in 1710-2700 and 3400-3800 MHz.
• High gain of up to 11 dBi
• F/B > 20dB
• Side lobe suppression -20 dB
• Consistent broadband performance
• Pole mountable
• 10m twin HFT195 cable with SMA-Male connectors

Application Areas:

FWA-XPOL panel antenna is recommended to use with cellular routers at stationary locations like houses and small offices. This antenna is ideal for high interference areas where there are multiple macro sites due to it's narrow azimuth which ensures high SINR hence better performance. Typical scenarios include urban areas with weak cellular coverage, country areas with high signal overlap from multiple sources etc.
