Your Upgrade for Stable 5G & 4G: The XPOL-1-5G v2
You know the feeling: in the middle of the most important meeting, the connection drops, or the movie stream constantly buffers. Often, this is not due to the Network itself, but to the weak signal reaching your router. This is exactly where the Poynting XPOL-1-5G v2 comes in. As a passive external Antenna, it captures mobile signals much more effectively than the small stub Antennas of your router and transmits them with minimal loss. It is the perfect partner for modern devices like the powerful Teltonika 4G / 5G Routers and gets the maximum performance out of them for you.
4x4 MIMO Technology: The Turbo for Your Data
What does 4x4 MIMO mean? Imagine it like a multi-lane highway for your data. Instead of just one lane, your router uses four separate data streams simultaneously to send and receive information. The result is not only drastically higher speed but also a significantly more robust and reliable connection. Especially in urban areas with many reflections or in rural regions at the edge of Network coverage, this technology fully demonstrates its strengths and ensures a stable internet experience.
Built for Any Weather: Robustness You Can Count On
This Antenna is not a fair-weather gadget. With its IP65 certification, it is completely dustproof and protected against strong jet water. The housing made of UV and seawater-resistant SAN Marine ASA plastic withstands sun, rain, and salty air. Wind resistance up to 250 km/h and extremely high impact resistance (IK10) make it one of the most resilient 5G Antennas / Outdoor Antennas on the market. No matter what comes – your connection stands.
Installation Made Easy: Flexible and Uncomplicated
Forget complicated alignment with compass and signal apps. As an omnidirectional Antenna, the XPOL-1-5G v2 receives signals from all directions. Simply find the location with the best reception – whether on a mast on the roof, on the house wall, or even inside by the window – and mount it with the included Accessories. The four integrated, 5-meter long cables with SMA connectors fit most common routers. Installation is so uncomplicated that you will benefit from better reception in no time.
Strengths & Notes at a Glance
- Pro: Extremely wide frequency coverage makes the antenna absolutely future-proof for all 4G and 5G bands.
- Pro: The robust IP65/IK10 construction made of seawater-resistant material is designed for the toughest outdoor conditions.
- Pro: Very flexible mounting options with included brackets for mast, wall, and window.
- Pro: Optimized 4x4 MIMO performance through cross-polarized design improves data rates and signal stability.
- Note: The gain of up to 4 dBi is good for an omnidirectional antenna, but a directional antenna might be superior in extremely weak signal conditions.
- Note: The actual performance improvement is highly dependent on the mounting location; high outdoor mounting yields the best results.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Do I need to align the Poynting XPOL-1-5G v2 5G Antenna with a cell tower?
No, as an omni-directional antenna, it does not need to be precisely aligned with a cell tower. This type of Antenna receives signals from all horizontal directions, which significantly simplifies installation. For optimal results, however, it should be mounted as high as possible and free of obstructions.
Is the antenna compatible with every 5G Router?
Yes, the antenna is compatible with practically any 5G, 4G, or 4G Router that has external SMA antenna connections. Since it is a passive component, there are no software compatibility issues. For Routers with TS-9 connectors, Coaxial Adapters are required.
What does 4x4 MIMO mean and what are its advantages for my Network?
4x4 MIMO stands for "Multiple Input, Multiple Output" with four transmit and four receive streams. This allows the connected Router to send and receive multiple data streams simultaneously. The result is typically higher download and upload speeds, a more stable connection, and better performance in environments with many signal reflections.
Can I use this antenna to improve my WiFi signal?
No, this antenna is designed exclusively for mobile network signals (2G, 3G, 4G, 5G) in the frequency bands from 617 to 3800 MHz. It is not designed for WiFi frequencies and therefore will not improve WiFi reception or act as a WiFi Antenna.
Is the installation of the Antenna complicated?
Installation is relatively easy thanks to the included versatile Antenna Mounting Accessories and Mounting Systems (mast, wall, window mount). The biggest challenge is finding the optimal mounting location with the best reception and neatly routing the four Cabling to the Router.
What is the difference between the V2 and the newer V3 (XPOL-1-5G-Plus)?
The V3 "Plus" version offers an extended frequency range and higher peak gain. While the V2 is excellent for most urban applications, the V3 can offer advantages in rural areas with weaker signals due to its higher gain, making it a powerful 5G Antenna.
