New line of rugged, affordable CBRS antennas

KP Performance Antennas has released a CBRS antenna line intended for WISP and enterprise applications, including four models: a 4-port Omni, a 4-port 90-degree sector antenna, a 2-port 15-degree flat panel, and a 2-port 60-degree flat panel.

The Omni CBRS antenna features 4 ports, +/- 45 slant polarization and covers the 3500-3800 MHz frequency bands. It is comprised of two dual-polarized Omni arrays in a single radome enclosure with one mounting point. The small, 27-inch Omni limits the tower footprint and provides 360-degree coverage with 8.5 dBi of gain. This CBRS Omni antenna supports one 4x4 MIMO or two 2x2 MIMO radios in CBRS band 3.5-3.8 GHz.

The CBRS sector antenna in this line boasts 4-ports, 17.7 dBi of gain and slant, dual-polarization. It covers the 3300-3800 MHz bands with 90-degree HPBW and zero-degree fixed electrical downtilt. It is intended for 4-sector frequency reuse with 4x4 MIMO LTE equipment and CBRS deployments. It also features low-PIM, N-type female connectors.

This product line also includes a 15-degree flat panel CBRS antenna that covers the 3500-3800 MHz frequency band. This antenna boasts stable 20 dBi gain in a small, 12x12x1-inch factor for CBRS band. This industrial design includes a UV-resistant radome and powder-coated mounting hardware. It also features 2 ports and +/-45 slant polarization. The 60-degree flat panel in this line includes all of these same features, except 10 dBi of gain instead of 20 dBi.
