Your Signal Upgrade: Robust & Compact for M2M and IoT
No more weak 4G signals at critical locations. The JARFT Multiband Antenna was specifically developed for professional use where reliability is everything. Whether in a control cabinet, on a vending machine, on the roof of a Service vehicle, or as part of your IoT project – this compact M2M Antenna ensures a stable data bridge to the outside world. Its discreet design allows for seamless integration without disturbing the aesthetics.
True 2x2 MIMO Technology for Maximum Performance
Why two cables? Because modern 4G Routers can do more! This Antenna supports 2x2 MIMO (Multiple Input, Multiple Output) technology and features two separate antenna elements. This means your router can send and receive two data streams simultaneously. The result is not only higher transmission speed but also a significantly more robust and reliable connection, especially in areas with weak reception or when on the move.
Weatherproof according to IP65: Built for Tough Outdoor Use
This antenna laughs at bad weather. The housing made of UV-resistant plastic is IP65 certified, meaning it's completely dustproof and protected against water jets from all directions. Combined with an extreme operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C, it's the ideal 4G Outdoor Antenna for Screw Mounting. The included rubber gasket at the housing edge provides additional protection against moisture ingress during installation.
Universally Applicable Thanks to Multiband Support
Don't worry about frequencies and compatibility. This JARFT Omni-Directional Antenna covers all important European mobile communication bands, including 4G frequencies at 800, 1800, and 2600 MHz, as well as older 3G and GSM standards. This makes it a flexible all-rounder that harmonizes with routers and modems from various manufacturers and mobile Network providers. Simply connect it and enjoy improved signal quality.
Strengths & Notes at a Glance
- Pro: Extremely robust and weatherproof IP65 housing, ideal for permanent outdoor use.
- Pro: Compact and discreet design for inconspicuous installations in M2M and IoT applications.
- Pro: True 2x2 MIMO support for higher data rates and more stable 4G connections.
- Pro: Flexible Multiband compatibility for all common 4G, 3G, and GSM networks in Europe.
- Note: The gain of up to 4 dBi is ideal for improving weak signals, but directional Antennas are superior for extreme distances to the transmission mast.
- Note: The permanently integrated 30 cm Cable is designed for direct device mounting. Extensions are possible but will lead to additional signal attenuation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Do you need to point this antenna at a cell tower?
Can you use the antenna directly with your laptop for better reception?
Unfortunately, it doesn't work directly with a laptop. This antenna has two special SMA Coaxial Connectors, which are designed for 4G Routers, M2M / IoT Antennas, or cellular modems. Your laptop typically doesn't have these connections. So, you'll need a compatible device in between.
Is the antenna also suitable for receiving 5G networks?
This antenna is a champion for 4G (LTE), 3G, and GSM. While it covers some lower 5G frequencies, it's not optimized for the super-fast 5G bands in the high-frequency range. If you want full 5G power, we recommend a dedicated 5G Antenna.
What does '2x2 MIMO' mean and why does the antenna have two cables?
Is the antenna ideal for your motorhome or truck?
Yes, absolutely! Its extremely robust and weather-resistant design (IP65) is perfect for Vehicle Antennas. Since it receives signals from all directions, it ensures stable 4G reception even while driving, without you having to constantly re-align it for your Yacht / Camper / Motorhome.
The 30 cm cable is too short for you. Can you simply extend it?
Yes, you can do that with suitable SMA Coaxial Pigtails or extension cables. But remember: every additional cable weakens the signal a little. So, keep the extension as short as possible to get the full performance from your new Antenna Cables.
