Magnetic base antenna with Huawei 4G connector

Sale!

A good antenna with 5dBi amplification that is easy to place on e.g. a windowpane. With 3m cable and a connector that fits, among others, Huawei E398 and ZTE MF688.

Gives good amplification on the 3G and 4G rural network of 800mhz. Landsbyggds-4G is usually referred to as "up to 25mbit" or "up to 32mbit" on the operators' coverage maps.

Suitable for

And products with the same connector (TS9).

Not suitable for stationary 4G routers with SMA connector, see instead this magnetic-foot-antenna with the same spec.

Cable RG174U 3m
Magnetic foot 25 mm

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

Frequency band
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 major 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 will come on this band
  • 2170 MHz - 3G throughout Sweden normally up to 3 km range.
  • 2600 MHz - 4G/LTE in Big Cities/City. Extremely short range. Often less than 500m.

Explanation of frequency bands

When choosing an antenna, pay attention to which frequency bands the antenna supports. Depending on which operator and where the antenna will be used, the frequency bands vary. Larger cities use 2600MHz while smaller towns use 800/900MHz with some support bands in between such as 1800/2100MHz.

A higher frequency band gives a higher speed but also has a shorter range. The same applies to the antenna, if you have a base station that transmits on 2600MHz, your antenna, antenna cable and the location of the antenna become more important than on a lower frequency band. Explanation of signal loss we will go through soon. Higher frequency bands also mean shorter range from the base station.

450MHz (coverage band) also known as the Net1 band is the frequency band that covers the most area in Sweden. Therefore, Net1 is known to be able to have reception where other operators don´t have a chance, but with low download and upload speeds. The reason why this band is called Net1 is because that the company Net1 has exclusive rights to this frequency band.

800MHz (coverage band) is used by all common operators, excluding Net1. The low frequency band means that 800MHz covers a lot of space. Therefore, the band is used outside big cities or smaller towns. 800MHz is the most used frequency band around Europe.

900MHz (coverage band) is the band that Tele2 and Telenor initially used as coverage band. 900MHz is a more unusual LTE band and in the beginning the band caused some problems when the clients (mobile phones etc.) could not connect to 900MHz. Today, the mobile phone manufacturers have adapted the mobile phones to be able to communicate on 900MHz.

1800MHz (capacity band) is the latest frequency band launched. All operators today use this band in metropolitan centers (apart from Net1).

2600MHz (capacity band) is a very well-used frequency band all over Europe. 2600MHz is the highest frequency band used for LTE, this means that the band also has the shortest range compared to 800/900MHz. Due to the high capacity, the band is used in metropolitan environments where many base stations are required to cover as much surface as possible and have as high a capacity as possible.
