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.

The standard cable length and connector option is 200mm RG316 and SMA(M). 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 in order to maintain adequate antenna performance. The Hercules is also available in White. Contact your regional sales office for further information.

The Olympian MA140 is a high performance combination LTE and GPS/GLONASS/GALILEO screw mount antenna in a compact housing, for external use on vehicles and outdoor assets worldwide. The LTE antenna functions equally well on 2G and 3G. The GPS/GLONASS/GALILEO antenna has stable gain and radiation patterns on both bands.

The antenna can be mounted on metal and plastic structures. Customized cable length and connectors are available.

Durable UV resistant IP67 ABS housing is resistant to vandalism and direct attack. A rubber O-ring is provided under the antenna to prevent water entering under the antenna. If the lower frequency bands are required the antenna functions best when mounted on a metal ground-plane, but can still work well with short cable lengths below 1 meters on plastic structures and is locked from the inside of the structure by a nut. The thread is extra small, allowing for installation in the tightest of environments.

Customized cable length and connectors are available. Taoglas recommends minimum of 1m cable length for stable antenna performance. When mounted on a ground-plane, the antenna can function well at all frequencies up to 3 meters cable length. Generally, antenna efficiency of less than 20% at the connector would lead to unreliable wireless system performance.

For better efficiency, especially on longer cable lengths up to 5 meters, a short 300mm cable can be used as standard, and then add a low loss 5 meter CFD200 extension cable SMA(F) to SMA(M) [CAB.0149].

If your device requires certification for PTCRB or US/Canadian network operators please contact Taoglas USA to check is this antenna suitable.

MA1506.AK.001 - Synergy 6-in-1 Next-Generation Combination Antenna
