MIMO DAS Ceiling Mount Antennas Provide High
Multi-Port Performance
Pulse Electronics Corp. has introduced its new DAS in-building
ceiling mount multiple-input/multiple-output (MIMO) antennas.
Part of Pulse Electronics' PIMinator line of low passive intermodulation (PIM) antennas, these antennas have high port-to-port
isolation and improved gain patterns for both ports 1 and 2,
providing wireless carriers with improved data throughput and
implementation flexibility. They operate from 698 MHz through
5,900 MHz, and at -155 dBc have some of the lowest PIM specifications on the market.
There is minimal crosstalk between the ports and horizontally
stable radiation patterns across all frequency bands. Through
Pulse's patent-pending innovation these antennas achieve -25
dB or better of inter-port isolation, preventing a reduction in signal-to-noise ratio and maintaining a high
network data-rate throughput.
Low PIM improves DAS system performance because PIM reduces or degrades base station performance.
Pulse Electronics' low PIM spec of -155 dBc at 2 by 20 watts (2 by 43 dBm) ensures high data rates to
support streaming video for mobile devices. With low PIM there are fewer dropped calls, higher data rates,
and fewer problems for cellular phone users and operators.
Pulse Electronics' DAS MIMO antennas come in two configurations, the DASLTE500NFMIMO with an Nfemale connector and a soon-to-be released Mini DIN version. The patent-pending PIMinator antennas are
housed in aesthetically pleasing injection-molded radomes. They are RoHS compliant and PIM certified and
come individually boxed or bulk packed.
PCTEL Launches M2M Wi-Fi MIMO Antenna
PCTEL, Inc. has launched the M2M Wi-Fi MIMO Antenna. This rugged omnidirectional antenna is designed
for improved reliability in machine-to-machine (M2M) industrial wireless applications. It represents an
improvement in data throughput performance over the single-output and diversity antennas that are common in the industrial wireless market.
The Internet of Things (IoT), composed of physical devices connected to the internet, is transforming modern industry. M2M Communications forecasts that the IoT and M2M market will grow at almost 30 percent
per year during the next five years to nearly $1 trillion in 2019. From 195 million connected devices in
2013, McKinsey predicts that we could reach over a trillion in 2025. All of these connected devices are already resulting higher demand for data throughput. Network reliability is still essential, but functions such
as process automation and video monitoring also require high levels of data throughput. That means more
access points and rapid adoption of MIMO technology.
"PCTEL's new antenna will keep the M2M environment from becoming an Internet of Slow Things," said
Marty Singer, PCTEL's Chairman and CEO. "We will continue to develop rugged, reliable antenna designs
that support the next generation of industrial wireless networks."
The M2M Wi-Fi MIMO Antenna is optimized for intelligent data acquisition and other industrial wireless applications. It supports dual-band 2.4/5 GHz Wi-Fi with coverage optimized for data throughput. Its IP67rated housing includes a single cable exit for easier installation.
PCTEL is currently accepting orders for the M2M Wi-Fi MIMO Antenna for delivery in January 2015. Order
using product number DIV2458PTRAMMCX.
