Your Upgrade for 5G and 4G: Reception Without Compromises
No more slow internet and connection drops. The Poynting XPOL-1-5G v2 is a powerful, passive Omni-directional Antenna that significantly improves the signal for your 4G- or 5G-Router. Thanks to its enormous frequency band coverage from the deep 617 MHz to the high 3800 MHz, it is perfectly equipped not only for current 4G networks but also for the latest 5G frequencies. Whether in the home office, holiday home, or camper – this Antenna ensures a stable and fast connection, exactly where you need it.
Built for Eternity: Robustness Meets Performance
The XPOL-1-5G v2 was developed for demanding outdoor use. The housing made of UV-stable ASA material is IP65 certified, making it absolutely dust-tight and protected against strong water jets. Additionally, IK10 impact resistance guarantees that the Antenna can withstand mechanical stresses. With a wind load tolerance of up to 160 km/h and an operating temperature range of -40°C to +70°C, you can rely on it under all conditions. It is one of the most robust 5G Antennas / Outdoor Antennas on the market.
Easy Installation, Maximum Impact
One of the biggest advantages of the XPOL-1-5G v2 is its uncomplicated installation. As an Omni-directional antenna, it receives signals from all directions. The tedious and precise alignment to a transmission mast, as required for directional Antennas, is completely eliminated. The scope of delivery includes everything you need for flexible mounting: a bracket for mast and wall, as well as suction cups for quick attachment to a window. This makes it the ideal solution to improve 5G reception outdoors without having to call a technician.
2x2 MIMO and Cross-Polarisation: The Technology Behind the Speed
Inside the antenna, two separate, cross-polarized elements work. This 2x2 MIMO technology (Multiple Input, Multiple Output) allows your Router to send and receive two data streams simultaneously. The 90-degree offset of the polarization (one vertical, one horizontal) significantly improves signal quality, as signal reflections are better utilized and interference is minimized. The result is a significantly more stable connection, higher data throughputs, and better Network performance, especially in challenging reception situations.
Strengths & Notes at a Glance
- Pro: Excellent and future-proof frequency coverage from 617 to 3800 MHz.
- Pro: Extremely robust and weather-resistant construction (IP65, IK10) for permanent outdoor use.
- Pro: Very high installation flexibility due to included Accessories for mast, wall, and window mounting.
- Pro: Stable 2x2 MIMO Performance through Cross-Polarisation for higher data rates and more stable connections.
- Note: The antenna gain of up to 4 dBi is solid, but in extreme fringe areas, a directional antenna with higher gain might be superior.
- Note: The actual performance improvement strongly depends on an optimal, as high and clear as possible, mounting position.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Does this antenna improve my mobile phone reception?
No, this antenna is not intended for direct connection to a mobile phone. It connects to a 4G/LTE Router or 5G Router that has external antenna ports (typically SMA). It improves the signal for the router, which then provides a strong WiFi signal for all your devices, including your mobile phone.
Do I need to precisely align the antenna with a cell tower?
No. As it is an omni-directional antenna, it receives signals from all horizontal directions. This makes installation very easy. However, you should mount it as high as possible and with a clear line of sight in all directions to get the best possible signal from your Antennas.
Is the antenna compatible with my router (e.g., Fritz!Box, Teltonika)?
Compatibility depends on your router's ports. The Poynting XPOL-1-5G v2 comes with two Antenna Cables with SMA Coaxial Connectors. Your router must have two corresponding external antenna sockets. Check your router's datasheet for connections like "SMA" or "TS-9" (for the latter, Coaxial Adapters would be necessary). Teltonika LTE / 5G Routers are often compatible.
What do '2x2 MIMO' and 'cross-polarized' mean?
2x2 MIMO (Multiple Input, Multiple Output) means the antenna can send and receive two signals simultaneously. Cross-polarized means that the two internal antenna elements are offset by 90 degrees (one vertical, one horizontal). This helps to better utilize signal reflections and establish a more stable, faster Network connection.
Can I also use the antenna indoors?
Yes, the antenna can also be used indoors, for example, mounted on a window. However, it achieves the best performance outdoors, as walls and other obstacles can significantly attenuate the signal. For maximum improvement, outdoor mounting of Antennas is recommended.
Is the antenna better suited for use in urban or rural areas?
It is designed for both scenarios. In urban areas, where signals are often reflected by buildings, its omni-directional characteristic is advantageous. In rural areas, it can stabilize the existing, often weaker signal, as long as basic Network coverage is available.
