Built for Eternity: The PUCK-2 v2 as Your Robust 5G Outdoor Antenna
When reliability comes first, there are no compromises. The Poynting PUCK-2 v2 was developed precisely for such scenarios. Its housing made of impact-resistant polycarbonate and ABS is not only IK10 vandalism-resistant, but also protected against high-pressure cleaners and steam jets with IP69K certification. Whether at icy -40°C or hot +80°C, on dusty tracks or in salty sea air – this Antenna guarantees consistently stable performance. It is the perfect choice for anyone looking for a durable and maintenance-free solution for critical applications.
Maximum Performance for 5G and 4G
Inside the compact PUCK-2 v2 is advanced 2x2 MIMO technology. This passive Antenna is the ideal partner for modern 4G / 5G Routers to unleash their full potential. The two separate antenna elements significantly improve data throughput and connection stability. The ultra-wide frequency band from 617 to 6000 MHz ensures that you are well-equipped for all current and future mobile networks. The omnidirectional radiation eliminates complicated alignment and ensures reliable 360° reception.
Sophisticated Mounting for Every Application
Poynting has thought of everything with the PUCK-2 v2. The antenna comes with a complete set of mounting Accessories, offering you maximum flexibility during installation. Whether you prefer a fixed and theft-proof screw mounting through a drill hole, a non-permanent attachment with the strong magnetic base, or using the adhesive mount for sensitive surfaces – you decide. Since the antenna is „Ground Plane Independent“, it works just as well on the sheet metal roof of a van as on the GRP roof of a motorhome. This makes it one of the most versatile 5G Antennas / Outdoor Antennas on the market.
The Ideal Antenna for Vehicles, IoT, and Industry
Thanks to its extreme robustness and E-Mark certification, the PUCK-2 v2 is one of the best Vehicle Antennas - 4G, 5G. It is the first choice for fleet management, public transport, emergency vehicles, and campers. But it also plays to its strengths in the industrial sector: for IoT gateways, M2M communication, smart metering, or the networking of remote facilities, it offers a reliable and durable connectivity solution that is easy to install and functions flawlessly for years.
Strengths & Notes at a Glance
- Pro: Extremely robust and discreet design with IP69K and IK10 certification, ideal for harsh environments.
- Pro: Excellent frequency band coverage (617-6000 MHz) for worldwide 2G/3G/4G/5G compatibility and future-proofing.
- Pro: Very versatile and easy mounting thanks to included Accessories (threaded stud, adhesive, magnet).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Is the Poynting PUCK-2 v2 a signal booster?
No, it is a passive antenna. It does not actively boost the signal, but rather, through its design and positioning, it improves a router's ability to receive and transmit a stronger and more stable signal from the cellular tower. The actual performance still depends on the local Network coverage.
Can I use the PUCK-2 v2 for WiFi?
Although its frequency range covers the WiFi bands (2.4 GHz Components and 5 GHz Components), it is primarily optimized and designed for mobile networks (4G/5G). It is not a WiFi Access Point or WiFi Repeater. For dedicated WiFi Antennas applications, Poynting offers other models.
Do I need a ground plane for mounting?
No, the PUCK-2 v2 is "Ground Plane Independent". This means it delivers consistent performance whether mounted on a metallic surface like a vehicle roof or a non-metallic surface like the GRP roof of a motorhome. This simplifies Mounting Systems.
Which Routers are compatible with the PUCK-2 v2?
The antenna is compatible with any 4G / 5G Routers that have two external cellular Antenna Cables of type SMA (female). To fully utilize MIMO functionality, both antenna connections must be connected to the router.
What is the difference between the PUCK-2 and the PUCK-5?
The PUCK-2 is a pure 2-in-1 cellular antenna with two elements for 2x2 MIMO 4G/5G. The PUCK-5 is a 5-in-1 antenna that combines two cellular Antennas, two WiFi Antennas, and a GPS/GLONASS Antenna in one Enclosures.
Do I need to drill a hole for installation?
Not necessarily. The antenna comes with several Mounting Systems options, including a magnetic and an adhesive mount, which do not require drilling. However, for the safest and most durable installation, especially on vehicles, mounting with the supplied threaded stud is recommended, which does require drilling. This is part of general Antenna Mounting Accessories.
