The OMNI-493 is an ultra-wideband, high performance, omni-directional antenna that covers the contemporary 4G/LTE and future 5G operating frequencies with excellent balanced gain across all frequencies. The ultra-wideband performance from the antenna allows it to operate from 617 to 3800 MHz, with a peak gain of 9 dBi. The antenna is future proof as it covers the up-and-coming LTE Band 71 (617 to 698 MHz band), as well as 3400 to 3800 MHz CBRS band which will be utilized for future 5G applications. This makes the antenna usable in all parts of the world and guarantees signal reception almost everywhere. The antenna design allows for superior pattern control over the entire frequency range, making the OMNI-493 a true high performance omni-directional antenna, suitable for marine and coastal applications. The exceptional wideband performance is an important factor for LTE and future 5G technologies, where these technologies rely on features such as Carrier Aggregation (CA) to provide the best possible reception and throughput over multiple frequency bands simultaneously.
