Pulse Electronics unveils LTE capability in navigation antennas

Pulse Electronics, a provider of electronic components,
announced the launch of its new vehicular mount antenna for long term evolution
(LTE), 3G, 4G, WLAN, and GPS applications.

 

The GPSDM700/2500FFS offers the best gain on the market
over multiple frequency bands. Wider frequency bands
(698-960/1710-2170/2300-2700/1575 MHz) are covered in one small, compact 3.5″
(88.3mm) tall, 4.16″ (105.7mm) diameter at base antenna.

 

This antenna is ideal for voice, mobile data, fixed
broadband, navigation, asset tracking, fleet management, LTE, and 700 MHz
public safety applications.

 

This new antenna is ahead of the field, offering 4G and
LTE operation combined with WLAN and GPS in such a small package,”said Elaine
Baxter, marketing manager for Pulse Electronics Wireless Devices Division.

 

It will enable our customers to differentiate their
products and future-proof designs by offering 4G and LTE capability ahead of
wide-scale deployment,” Baxter added.

 

The broader 698-960 and 1710-2170 MHz bands have a gain
of 3 dBi, while 2300-2700 MHz WLAN band has a gain of 6 dBi compared to the
industry standard 2 and 4 dBi. The GPS LNA gain at 3V is 5 dBic/25 dB and at 5V
is 5 dBic/30 dB.

 

The GPSDM700/2500FFS are rugged, aesthetically pleasing
antennas with UV and IP-65 protection to ensure a long, reliable,
maintenance-free life. They are also RoHS compliant.

 

Separate cables create maximum application flexibility.
Antennas have 3 cables to optimally support the different technologies.
Wireless voice, data, and LTE frequencies are supported by a single low-loss
RG-58 cable.

 

WLAN operates on a separate RG-58 cable, while the GPS
antenna has its own RG-174 cable. Additional cable configurations, lengths, and
connector options are available upon request.

 

These direct mount antennas can be easily mounted through
a 3/4 inch (19.05mm) hole. The antenna mount can accommodate up to a
5/8″ (15.88mm) thick surface.

 

Pulse Electronics Corporation recently introduced
the first 700-LTE (long term evolution), high-performance, low profile antenna
for LTE-enabled tablets.

 

This switchable antenna for mobile connected PCs is only
1mm high. It enables 4 states for low band: 700-750MHz (LTE low), 750-790MHz
(LTE high), 820-900MHz (GSM850), and 880-960MHz (GSM900), and covers
1800/1900/2100 for high band applications, with switching implemented directly
from the device’s display area.
