Antenna for GSM, ISM, LTE applications: Omni-Directional dipole antenna for cellular phone bands 824-960 MHz and 1710-1990 MHz. These bands are used for GSM, ISM & LTE: 4G networks (AT&T Mobility, Verizon and others) .

Connector options: SMA-male, RP-SMA-male, or FME-female:

• RP-SMA used for For WiFi and CDMA applications, while SMA is used for 4G/3G/2G applications.
• Mounts directly onto SMA-female, RP-SMA-female connector, or FME male connector
• See also 2dBi GSM antenna for 860-960 (lower cost).
• See all GSM Antenna options

Compatibility with wireless standards & applications:  This omni directional antenna's range of frequency band compatibility in the 700 MHz to 2700 MHz frequency band range, its low broadband VSWR, and impedance matching to 50 Ohm gear, makes it suitable and compliant for all the following applications: 

• LTE / 4G & GSM /3G: Broadband design for 4G / LTE and 3G / GSM systems: 4G networks
• GSM: 824-960MHz: AT&T Mobility & Verizon.
• LTE cellular phone bands: 1710-1990MHz  
  
• 900MHz ISM Band. Can also be made to operate on other VHF and UHF frequencies within the ISM frequency bands.
  
• Non Line of Sight ( NLOS )
• GSM is 3G wireless (Global System for Mobile Communication)
• RFID
• SCADA
• Wireless Video Links

IoT wireless & M2M:  Since it is vertically polarized, it is compatible with many machine to machine communication applications, remote monitoring, and telemetry applications using LTE-m, 4G / LTE, 3G / GSM.

The key performance difference between the two models AD3RA and AD3RAv2 is the lower VSWR of AD3RA: VSWR tells you how much power is reflected back from the antenna to the transmitter.

• Lower VSWR (of AD3RA) means that more more power is reflected back towards the transmitter
• Higher VSWR (of AD3RA2) means that AD3RAv2 has more non-relected power than AD3RA

RP-SMA and SMA Connector Characteristics:

• RP-SMA = Reverse Polarity SMA.  Also known as SMA-RP, SMA-R, SMA RP, SMA R.
• RP-SMA and SMA gender is counter-intuitive: Please observe picture & note it is correct.  The gender is referring to the pins inside--not the threads. RP-SMA male has threads on inside. More details regarding RP-SMA gender determination. 
• RP-SMA-male and SMA is also called "plug" and the respective female connectors are also called a "jack."
  

• RP-SMA and SMA are round screw-type connectors, with medium-sized, threaded coupling connectors that are rated for frequencies from the lowest (DC) up to 18GHz.
• Composition
• Connector Body: Brass, Gold Plated for low loss.  Precision-machined.
• Center Contact: Beryllium Copper, Gold Plated
• Crimp Ferrule: Copper, Nickel Plated
• Insulators: PTFE
• We offer an SMA wrench to assist in installing antennas, cables and adapters with SMA or RP-SMA connector(s).
• SMA-male connector fits items that have an SMA (female) jack/connector.
• Gender of SMA is counter-intuitive: Please observe picture & note it is correct.

ROHS & REACH compliant: Antenna, cable and connector are all complaint with ROHS 3 and REACH.
