Tango 19MIMO 2G (GPRS)/3G/4G & GPS Puck Antenna

The Tango 19 is a combination antenna, with two antennas built into a single package.

One is an active GPS antenna with a Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) to boost performance and provide a strong satellite signal strength. The stronger signal allows satellites to be acquired more quickly speeding up application use. The second antenna is a passive 1-2dBi gain Quad Band 2G antenna, allowing for worldwide use with some coverage in 3G and 4G bands.

Supplied as standard with 3 or 5m cable and SMA Male Connectors. Alternative cable lengths or connector types may be specified for volume orders.
