• Ultra-wideband omni-directional antenna for high performance

• Easy installation with a 1-inch marine adapter bracket included

• Weatherproof (IP68) for tough marine environments

• Optional 316 stainless steel brackets for versatile mounting

• UV and saltwater resistant for long-lasting durability at sea

The OMNI-493 is a high-performance, ultra-wideband, omni-directional antenna designed to support contemporary 4G/LTE and future 5G operating

frequencies. It offers excellent, balanced gain across all frequencies from 617 to 6000 MHz, with a peak gain of 8 dBi. This makes the OMNI-493 future-

proof, covering Band 71 (617 to 698 MHz), as well as the 3400 to 4200 MHz CBRS band, which will be crucial for future 5G applications.

Designed for use in marine and coastal environments, the OMNI-493 provides reliable signal reception in even the harshest conditions, ensuring

coverage in all parts of the world. Its IP68-rated enclosure ensures that the antenna can withstand water, salt, and UV exposure, making it robust enough

for use at sea or in coastal installations. The superior pattern control across the frequency range makes the OMNI-493 a true high-performance antenna,

ideal for maritime communication systems. Its exceptional wideband performance is vital for both LTE and 5G technologies, which rely on features like

Carrier Aggregation (CA) to optimize signal reception and data throughput across multiple frequency bands simultaneously.

• High gain omni-directional antenna for enhanced performance

• Covers Band 71 (617 to 698 MHz) and 3.5 GHz 5G bands

• Wideband (617 to 6000 MHz) for future proof connectivity

• Marine-specific design for coastal and offshore use

• Weather resistant (IP68) for durability in harsh environments

• UV stable and saltwater resistant for long-term marine

protection

• Marine applications / Yachts / Boats / Ferries

• Enhanced 4G/LTE and 5G reception

• IoT & M2M applications

• Areas with poor data signal reception

• Improve data transmission connection reliability & stability

VSWR is a measure of how efficiently radio-frequency power is transmitted from a power source, through a transmission line, into a load. In an ideal system, 100% of the energy is transmitted which corresponds to a VSWR of 1:1.

The OMNI-493 delivers superior performance across all bands with a VSWR of <2:1 across 95% of the bands.
