RFI CDR8194-B Q-Fit 5G LTE Collinear Antenna, 698-3800 MHz
Multi-band cellular antenna with Q-Fit removable whip for easy removal in low-clearance areas.
Overview
The CDR8194-B is part of RFI's CDR8100 Series, covering the 4G LTE bands (698-960MHz, 1710-2170MHz, 2300-2700MHz) plus the 5G LTE band (3400-3800MHz) in a single antenna. It's ideal for use with cellular modems and active repeaters, especially where signal is poor.
The outstanding performance of the CDR8100 series comes from RFI's patented Meander radiating elements. These Meander circuits are coupled together to deliver consistent gain, coverage pattern, and bandwidth, allowing the antenna to operate across all mobile phone networks globally in one unit.
The CDR8100 series sits between RFI's lighter-duty CD8100 series and heavy-duty CDQ8100 series, and includes an integrated spring with threaded stud/nut for easy vehicle installation. The whip can be removed via the integrated N male connector in the whip and N female connector on the spring assembly.
Key Features
- Patented Meander PCB collinear design means the ultimate in pattern and gain stability.
- True multi-band coverage means readiness for current 4G/5G LTE networks in a single antenna.
- High gain across all bands means suitability for fringe and rural applications.
- Q-Fit removable whip system means easy removal for low-clearance areas like multi-storey car parks, car washes, or for antenna security.
Applications
- Cellular modems and active repeaters, especially in low-signal areas
- Fringe and rural 4G/5G coverage applications
- Bull bar mounted vehicle installations requiring a removable whip
- Fleet vehicles needing to pass through low-clearance areas
