Product Overview
The OMNI-280 antenna provides an innovative solution for the signal enhancement of 4G/3G and 2G networks. It is a unique magnetic,
wall- or pole-mountable, single polarised, full LTE band antenna that incorporates an ultra-wideband element in a single housing. This
antenna is a cost-effective solution for enhancing signal reception and throughput. The OMNI-280-01 antenna increases signal reliability,
ensures higher data throughput for users and provides a stable, high quality connection. This improves user experience and secures client
retention. It is ideal for any application using the GSM network (LTE/HSPA/3G/EDGE/ GPRS).
Features
• Wideband frequency ranges from 698 to 3800 MHz
• Medium gain across frequency range
• Omni-directional radiation pattern for optimum coverage
• Magnetic, wall or pole mountable
• Lightweight
• Increase system transmission reliability
Application Areas
• M2M applications where machines and measurement
devices need to be connected for real time monitoring
and information transfer. (Telematics)
• Utilities for power and water metering.
• Security industry where cameras and other security
equipment needs to be monitored.
• Retail point of sale equipment.
• Areas with poor data signal reception (indoor and
outdoor).

Antenna Performance Plots
Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR)
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-280 delivers superior performance across all bands with a
VSWR of 3:1 or better across 90% of the bands.
