RFI CDQ8194 5.5dBi Bullbar Mounted 3G+ 4G+ 5G Antenna - Removeable Whip

Key Features

• The RFI CDQ8194 sports similar performance to its CDQ8195 / CDQ8197 / CDQ8199 bigger brothers, but with a lower 5.5dBi gain.

• The Lower Gain perfectly suits hillier regions where the terrain is hampering the signal performance

• The key feature of this antenna is its reduced height, measuring in at 735mm tall compared to 970mm, 1210mm & 2080m respectively

• Q-Fit® removable whip system for ease of removal in low height environments such as multi-story car parks, car washes or for security purposes

• Multiband covering all of the 3G, 4G & 5G frequencies currently in use

• Patented PCB based collinear design offering the ultimate in pattern and gain stability

• Supplied with 5m low loss coaxial cable, with Male SMA connector

Additional Information

• The new CDQ8100 Series 5G LTE antennas not only cover the 4G LTE bands (698-960 MHz, 1710-2170 MHz, and 2300-2700MHz) but now the new 5G LTE band (3400-3800 MHz) and is ideal for use with cellular modems & active repeaters, especially when signal is poor.

• The outstanding performance of the CDQ8100 series lies in the use of the patented Meander™ radiating elements. These Meander™ circuits are coupled together to deliver extraordinary consistency in gain, coverage pattern and bandwidth. The result is a unique antenna able to operate across all mobile phone networks globally, housed in the one unit. It is our flagship product and is designed for the harsh Australian conditions. & includes an integrated spring with threaded stud/nut for easy installation on vehicles. 

• The CDQ8100 Series whips can be removed via the integrated N male connector in the whip and N female connector on the spring assembly.

• It's important to note this antenna does not provide MIMO, if you require the best possible Internet performance, you should use two antennas, separated by around 300mm.

Usage

• As a rule of thumb: the higher the dBi, the flatter the angle the antenna can receive from

• In hilly areas, cell towers are usually located at the peak of the hill, and if you've got a very high gain antenna (like 9dBi) chances are the antenna won't have a tall enough angle to receive from the tower

• The CDQ8194's 5dBi gain is perfect for those in the southern states or anyone planning on travelling through hilly ranges
