A-XPOL-0002-V3-01 - X-Polarized, Uni-Directional LTE Antenna

The XPOL-2-5G is Poyntings third generation V3 of this very popular cross polarized (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. Poynting has 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 the 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! The 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, Poynting 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!
