Description

The LWC-GSM-MM-03 is a specialized GSM antenna assembly designed for 2G network applications requiring extended cable runs. It integrates a compact, anodized aluminum antenna element with a pre-attached 5-meter RG58 coaxial cable terminated with an SMA-Plug connector. This stub configuration provides the necessary impedance matching and physical flexibility for installations where the antenna must be positioned at a distance from the GSM module or gateway, such as on a mast or outside an enclosure.

Engineered for reliable RF performance, the antenna operates across the primary GSM-850/900 and DCS/PCS bands, delivering a consistent 4 dBi gain. Its linear polarization and omnidirectional horizontal radiation pattern ensure broad coverage for mobile data and SMS telemetry in IoT deployments, asset trackers, and remote monitoring systems. The assembly is built to handle up to 10W of RF power, making it suitable for both low-power sensor nodes and higher-power industrial telemetry units.

Key Features

  • Dual-band operation covering standard GSM and DCS/PCS frequency ranges.
  • Integrated 5-meter RG58 coaxial stub cable for installation flexibility and impedance continuity.
  • Omnidirectional 360° horizontal beamwidth with a 30°/40° vertical beamwidth.
  • Low VSWR (< 2.2) ensures efficient power transfer and minimizes signal reflection.
  • 10W high power handling capability for robust GSM transceiver compatibility.
  • 50-ohm impedance standard for direct matching with common GSM modules.
  • Linear polarization optimized for typical GSM signal environments.
  • Compact and durable anodized aluminum construction.

Applications

  • 2G/GSM IoT sensor nodes for remote environmental and agricultural monitoring.
  • Asset tracking and fleet management devices requiring SMS-based location updates.
  • Industrial telemetry and remote alarm systems using GSM for data backhaul.
  • Backup communication links for primary cellular network failover.
  • Legacy M2M (Machine-to-Machine) equipment upgrades and maintenance.

Frequently Asked Questions

What frequency bands does the LWC-GSM-MM-03 antenna support?

The antenna supports two primary GSM frequency ranges: 824-960 MHz (covering GSM-850 and GSM-900 bands) and 1710-1980 MHz (covering DCS-1800 and PCS-1900 bands). This dual-band coverage ensures compatibility with most global 2G network operators for IoT data and SMS communication in telemetry and tracking applications.

How do I connect this antenna to my GSM module?

Connect the antenna's SMA-Plug connector directly to the SMA female jack on your GSM module (e.g., SIM800, SIM900 series). Ensure the connection is hand-tightened securely to maintain proper 50-ohm impedance matching and prevent signal loss. The 5-meter RG58 cable provides flexibility for routing the antenna away from electronic noise sources to an optimal location for signal reception.

What is the purpose of the integrated 5-meter RG58 stub cable?

The pre-attached 5-meter RG58 coaxial stub cable allows for flexible antenna placement at a distance from the GSM transceiver, which is crucial for improving signal strength. It enables you to mount the antenna outside metal enclosures, on poles, or near windows while maintaining a controlled impedance path with low loss, which is essential for reliable GSM network connectivity in field deployments.

Can this antenna be used with 3G or 4G LTE modules?

While its frequency coverage includes portions of some 3G/4G bands, it is optimized for GSM/2G operation. For dedicated 3G or 4G LTE applications, we recommend using a wideband cellular antenna specifically designed to cover the full LTE frequency range (e.g., 700-2700 MHz) to ensure optimal performance and data throughput for modern cellular IoT modules.
