GL4X4MIMO-SF

Antennas RF Overview

The Amphenol PCTEL GL4X4MIMO-SF is a broadband dome RF antenna designed for multi-band wireless communications. It supports frequencies including 657.5MHz, 750MHz, 767.5MHz, 892MHz, 1.586GHz, 1.955GHz, 2.002GHz, 2.495GHz, 3.6GHz, and 5.55GHz. The device covers frequency ranges from 617MHz to 5.95GHz, encompassing 2G, 3G, 5G, Bluetooth, cellular, GNSS, GPS, and LTE standards. It features SMA male connectors (quantity 2), panel mounting, and an IP67 rating. Gain values range from -2dBic to 5.8dBi across bands. VSWR is 2, with a maximum power of 50 W and cable length of 5.18m.

Antennas RF Procurement Notes

Verify the exact part number suffix against the manufacturer's current nomenclature, as distributor listings may use aliases like GL4X4-SF-PLK. Confirm that the SMA male connector configuration matches system requirements. Ensure the specified cable length and panel mount dimensions fit the installation site. Cross-reference the RoHS3 compliance status if environmental regulations apply to the project scope.

Antennas RF Selection Notes

Select this model when a single omnidirectional unit must handle diverse protocols including 5G, LTE, and GNSS simultaneously. The broadband design eliminates the need for separate antennas for different frequency groups. Consider the IP67 rating for exposed installations requiring dust and water resistance. Verify that the gain specifications across the ten frequency bands meet the link budget requirements for the intended coverage area.

Antennas RF Part Context

This component belongs to the Coach II series of permanent mount antennas by Amphenol PCTEL. The series targets industrial IoT and transportation applications requiring robust, multi-functional connectivity. It integrates cellular and navigation functions into a compact dome form factor, simplifying installation compared to discrete antenna arrays.

Antennas RF Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Distributor aliases such as GL4X4-SF-PLK refer to the same functional unit but require verification of connector and cable specifications before substitution.
