The Taoglas Storm MA491 antenna is a 4-in-1 low profile, heavy-duty, fully IP67 rated external antenna for
use in worldwide telematics and IoT applications which require best in class LTE and Wi-Fi performance. Until
the arrival of the Storm, achieving high efficiency in LTE and Wi-Fi required the use of large dome antennas
typically 80mm+ in height.
However, this unique product, at only 31mm high, delivers powerful worldwide 4G LTE MIMO antenna
technology. The antenna also covers legacy 3G/2G bands for devices that fallback where 4G is unavailable.
Dual-band MIMO Wi-Fi antennas enable high throughput Wi-Fi speeds.
Typical applications include:
- Internet of Things (IoT) Gateways and Routers
- Remote Asset and Pipeline Monitoring
- HD Video over LTE
- First Responder and Emergency Services
- Automotive Vehicle Tracking and Telematics
LTE 4G applications demand high speed data uplink and downlink. High efficiency and high gain MIMO
antennas are necessary to achieve the required signal to noise ratio and throughput required to solve these
challenges. Taoglas also takes care to have high isolation between the two MIMO antennas to prevent self-
interference. The MA491 does not require a ground plane. Low loss cables are used to keep efficiency high
over long cable lengths. In contrast, smaller MIMO antennas with thinner, poorer quality cables will have
much reduced efficiency and isolation, which would lead to a large drop in system throughput or drops, and
may not make a system connection at all.
Conformity is declared under the following standard: EN55022 Class B.
This is to declare that the product listed above conform to the EMC directive 2014/30/EU.
