The MA111 Ultima Series 2in1 GPS/ GLONASS /GALILEO & Cellular Combination Antenna is a n extremely low profile combination high performance GPS /GLONASS /GALILEO and penta - band cellular antenna solution for professional telematics applications . At only 22 mm height it is the lowest profile antenna in the market, with a diameter of 55 mm. It is designed to be mounted and couple to the metal structures it attaches to radiate. Durable UV ABS housing, thread and nut is resistant to vandalism and direct attack.

The IP67 waterproof robust plastic body makes it extremely light, economical for shipping and minimum weight impact on vehicles. This also makes it ideal for use in humid environments such as water pits or marine applications as there are no external metal parts to corrode. The closed cell foam with double - sided adhesive provides a permanent waterproof seal and can adjust to different curvatures, stopping water from leaking under the antenna into the mounting hole.

The MA120 antenna is a high performance 450MHz and 868MHz combination thread mount antenna for external use with smart meters, gateways, mesh networks, vehicles and outdoor and indoor assets. It is designed for heavy duty work with extra thick threads. The UV resistant polycarbonate housing is resistant to vandalism and direct attack. At only 29mm high and a diameter of 49mm this unique antenna is the lowest profile and smallest worldwide.

The antenna has been tested in free space and on varying sizes of ground-planes, showing good frequency stability, allowing its use in many different mounting environments.

The IP67 and IP69K rated housing makes it waterproof against short immersion in water, and also against high pressure water jets used in industrial cleaning. A closed cell foam on base prevents water leaking into mounting hole, while also providing a secure seal to a contoured surface.

The standard cable and connector is 1 meter RG316. High quality FEP (Teflon) jacket is used for the cable. This makes the cable very flexible and able to operate in high temperature environments, corrosion resistant. Note this antenna is designed for short range communication in the range of meters to hundreds of meters.

For cable lengths longer than 2 meters or where very long communication ranges are desired, apart from needing a higher transmit power from the transmitter, it is recommended to go with much larger high gain stand-alone whip or fiberglass Omni type antennas, to counteract losses in the cables.

The Taoglas Raptor III MA1270 is a high performance 7-in-1 Shark Fin style combination antenna. It provides multiple antenna connections in a sleek, covert enclosure and is suitable for all automotive and commercial trucking applications. The Raptor III has been engineered to be mounted directly on the vehicle roof and is supplied with 3m cables and SMA connectors as standard.

The Raptor III is designed to combine active GNSS (GPS/GLONASS/BeiDou/Galileo), 2 x 5G/4G Cellular MIMO, 2 x Dual-Band Wi-Fi MIMO, Active AM/FM and TETRA antennas in a small, robust, IP67 rated enclosure. The whip antenna attached to the rear of the enclosure covers the TETRA bands used for specialist communication systems such as public safety and first responders.

The cellular antennas in the Raptor III cover all 4G, and the new Sub 6GHz 5G cellular bands offering efficiencies of up to 80%. Fallback to 3G and 2G bands are possible where 5G and 4G is not accessible. The high performing Wi-Fi antennas cover both the 2.4GHz and 5.8GHz Wi-Fi bands. The whip antenna covers the Terrestrial Trunked Radio (TETRA) bands between 380 - 470MHz as standard and can be customized for other communication frequency bands. It is connected via a threaded M6 Female connector to the M6 male connector on the enclosure. Low loss 1.5DS cables are used that can allow for longer cable installations if required.

The Raptor III has a robust, impact-resistant, UV resistant, PC enclosure and is easy to install. It requires just one single M20 hole, unlike many other vehicle mount solutions currently on the market that require multiple mounting holes. This single hole mounting substantially reduces installation time & cost and reduces damage to the vehicle.

Typical Applications Include:

• Transportation and Fleet Management
• Autonomous Driving and Robotics
• First Responders and Emergency Services

The cables, connectors and whip are fully customizable. For further information or installation instructions contact your regional Taoglas customer support team.

The MA130 Hercules antenna is a GPS/GLONASS/GALILEO and ISM Band 868MHz combination 2in1 high performance solution for remote monitoring. The integrated metal thread-mount allows for external use on vehicles and outdoor assets worldwide.

The 868MHz ISM Band antenna has an inbuilt ground-plane and comparatively wide-bandwidth of 30MHz+, at a minimum return loss of -10dB from 850MHz to 880MHz, delivering complete stability of performance when mounted on a ground-plane or in free-space, thus permitting a wide variety of installations. The omni-directional gain pattern, with a peak gain of 4dBi when using shorter cable lengths, ensures constant reception and transmission.

The GPS/GLONASS/GALILEO antenna has been optimized to work on both GPS/GALILEO and GLONASS bands, allowing the antenna to see the maximum amount of satellites in the sky and improving tracking accuracy enormously especially in built up areas, such as urban canyons where traditional GPS-only solutions struggle to maintain a lock driving around corners. A front-end SAW filter attenuates any nearby out-of-band wireless transmissions so the GPS/GALILEO LNA is not driven into compression or damaged.

The Hercules is also prized by the leading wireless device brands globally due to its unique mechanical construction. The compact size and rugged polycarbonate construction, which can withstand direct attack and hazards such as tree-branches, coupled with a waterproof rating of IP67 and IP69K (waterproof against high pressure industrial cleaning from top and bottom sides) are un-matched in the industry.

The standard option comes with 200mm cables and SMA(M) connectors. The cable length and connector are customizable. Taoglas supplies low loss extension cables according to your requirement. Maximum cable length should not go beyond 5 meters. The Hercules is also available in White. Contact your regional sales office for further information.

The MA131 Hercules antenna is a GPS/GLONASS/GALILEO and ISM Band 915MHz combination 2in1 high performance solution for the most reliable asset tracking and remote monitoring. The integrated metal thread-mount allows for external use on vehicles and outdoor assets worldwide.

The 915MHz ISM Band antenna is ideally mounted on a ground-plane but works well also in free-space mounting conditions. The omni-directional gain pattern, with a peak gain of 4dBi when using shorter cable lengths, ensures constant reception and transmission.
