Long-range antennas: reliable in extreme conditions

Presenting long range antennas for use in harsh environments!

Logarithmic-periodic antennas [English LPDA] by Poynting are designed to work in extreme weather and off-road conditions. Such devices are characterized by their ability to operate over a wide frequency range. They are distinguished by their stable performance and compact design compared to other antennas with similar capabilities.

Where to use long-range antennas?

Anteny dużego zasięgu are designed to work in unusual locations:

ATMs/Banking Facilities: Financial transactions require a permanent connection to the banking system. The broadband antenna will enable fast data transmission to the PBX and a stable connection, without the risk of data loss and interrupted transactions, in facilities located outside the range of mobile networks.

Campsites/campgrounds: During the summer, tourists flock in large numbers to campsites and campgrounds, which are usually located on the outskirts, away from the centers of resorts or spas. In such places, with a crowd of people, there may be problems with stable connection. If you run this type of resort, it's worth investing in long-range antennas to make your guests' leisure time more pleasant.

Rural areas/forest areas: According to the latest CSO report, about 40 percent of Poles live in villages. In rural or forested areas far from civilization, problems with cellular network coverage are very common, and access to high-speed Internet is impossible. Broadband antennas will help significantly improve the web surfing experience, thereby reducing digital exclusion.

Ski resorts: If you run a ski resort in the mountains and want your guests to have stable access to broadband Internet, investing in long-range antennas will more than pay off. Even during a snowstorm or heavy rain, skiers will be able to monitor the weather for the next few hours or watch their favorite series on Netflix in good quality.

Mountain Shelters: On all popular trails you will find hostels, or places where you can rest and eat before continuing your hike. In high mountain areas there are often problems with coverage or unstable connectivity. A long-range antenna will help boost the signal so that hikers can check the forecast weather or catch contact with civilization.

Which long-range antenna to choose?

On offer at our store IoTball.com find two logarithmic-periodic antenna models, each available in a basic version and an enhanced version suitable for LTE reception.

LPDA-92 Antenna: Long-range antenna operating in the 800-960 MHz and 1700-2700 MHz bands. It offers 8 dBi gain, wide compatibility with GSM/LTE systems, and durability. Weatherproof, easy to install. Perfect for signal amplification and data transmission.

LPDA-500 Antenna: Broadband GSM/LTE antenna, operating in the 700-2700 MHz range. Provides 9 dBi gain, stable signal amplification and weather resistance. Ideal for signal amplification, telemetry and monitoring. Equipped with N connector, easy to install outdoors.

All antennas meet the standards of the international iP65 protection standards. Their housing is resistant to heavy rain or snowstorms, fully dustproof, and protected against accidental touching. In addition, the manufacturer declares that the antennas will work continuously during extreme cold (down to -40°C) and the Saharan heat (60°C on the plus side).

Summary

Summary, long-range antennas are not designed for the "ordinary Kowalski", because the latter will not be able to use all their functionalities. Due to their characteristics, they will perfectly find their way in extreme conditions, providing a stable connection even in mountainous terrain.
