Description
The EFBC3G26SC-[X]SPIP Stargazer antenna is designed for installation in hostile environments, either buried at street level or inside manholes. The antenna features an efficient dipole element design encapsulated in robust impact resistant plastic and covering 698- 960/1710-2700MHz frequency bands.
Product overview
The EFBC3G26SC-[X]SPIP Stargazer antenna is designed for installation in hostile environments, either buried at street level or inside manholes. The antenna features an efficient dipole element design encapsulated in robust impact resistant plastic and covering 698- 960/1710-2700MHz frequency bands.
The antenna is supplied with an adhesive tape pad for easy adhesive installation on suitable surfaces and features integral flexible coaxial cable fitted with a special SMA connector to protect the cable assembly and antenna during full immersion. The antenna is rated to IP68 for ingress protection.
Note that the EFBC3G26-[X]SPIP series is not designed for installation on metal surfaces and that if buried performance will be affected by how deep the antenna is buried, whether the ground is waterlogged and what materials the antenna is buried in. While the antenna is capable of being buried it must therefore be noted that this is not without significant performance impacts.
Product Features
- Omni-directional 4G/LTE antenna IP68 rated – 1.5m depth for 48 hours Made from TPV moulded over Polypropylene–durable, chemical resistant plastic Tuned based on being buried in road surface Can be buried in ground or fitted with adhesive pad
Benefits
- Designed to be mounted embedded in the road surface next to a manhole under a layer of concrete or asphalt Bringing the antenna outside the manhole improves connectivity compared to an antenna inside the manhole The antenna is protected from chemicals and water ingress Provides cellular/LTE connectivity for challenging water/waste water deployments
Application
- Water and wastewater IoT Utilities
