The End of Signal Loss: Your TRB160 All-in-One Outdoor Solution
The QuSpot A160S revolutionizes the way you use your Teltonika 4G Routers TRB160 Gateway. The decisive advantage lies in the design: your Gateway is mounted directly inside the weatherproof antenna enclosure. This eliminates long, attenuation-prone antenna cables, which are the main cause of poor reception in conventional setups. The 4G signal is transmitted loss-free from the antenna to your Gateway's modem. The result is a significantly more stable, faster, and more reliable internet connection, even in locations with weak network coverage.
Built for Eternity: IP67 Protection for All Weather
Whether rain, snow, dust, or bright sun – the QuSpot A160S is designed for continuous outdoor use. With its IP67 protection class, it is completely protected against the ingress of water and dust. The enclosure made of UV-resistant ABS plastic and high-quality materials such as aluminum and PTFE withstands even extreme temperatures from -40°C to +75°C. This makes it the perfect choice to improve Teltonika TRB160 reception outdoors – be it on a house wall, on a mast, or as a mobile All-in-One 4G solution for motorhome and boat.
Installation? A Breeze Thanks to 360° Reception and PoE
Forget the tedious alignment of your antenna. The QuSpot A160S is an omnidirectional Omni-Directional Antenna that receives signals from all directions (360°). Simply mount, connect, done. Installation is further simplified by the clever single-cable solution. You only need a single Ethernet cable to supply the integrated Gateway with data and power. This is achieved via a (separately available) Passive PoE injector, making this product an ideal PoE antenna enclosure for 4G Gateway.
Strengths & Notes at a Glance

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Is the Teltonika TRB160 Gateway included with the antenna?
No, the Teltonika TRB160 Gateway is not included with the QuSpot A160S Antenna and must be purchased separately. This specialized 4G / LTE Outdoor Antenna is a unique Enclosure designed to accommodate Teltonika LTE / 5G Routers, specifically the Teltonika TRB160 Gateway, and is considered one of the essential Teltonika Accessories for optimal Network performance.
Why does this antenna significantly improve reception?
The main reason for the significant improvement in Network reception is the elimination of signal loss. Since the Teltonika TRB160 Router, one of the leading Teltonika LTE / 5G Routers, is mounted directly within this 4G / LTE Outdoor Antenna, there are no long Antenna Cables where the 4G signal could be attenuated. Furthermore, the Antennas are mounted outdoors, where the 4G/LTE signal is inherently stronger than inside buildings.
Do I need to align the antenna with a cellular tower?
No, that is not necessary. The QuSpot A160S is an omni-directional antenna, specifically a 4G / LTE Outdoor Antenna, which means it receives signals equally from all directions (360°). This characteristic, common in many Omni-Directional Antennas, simplifies installation significantly, as no precise alignment is required, unlike some directional Antennas.
How is the router powered in the outdoor antenna?
Power is ideally supplied to the router within the outdoor Antennas via a single Ethernet Cable using Passive Power over Ethernet (PoE). For this setup, you will need a separate PoE Injector, which is typically placed indoors and provides power to the Ethernet Cable that connects to the antenna, ensuring a reliable Network connection.
Can I use this antenna for routers other than the TRB160?
No, this specific Antennas model (A160S) is exclusively designed for the Teltonika TRB160 Gateway, one of the specialized Teltonika LTE / 5G Routers. The internal mounting and connectors are precisely matched to this device. For other LTE / 5G Routers, the manufacturer QuWireless offers suitable, dedicated QuSpot versions, ensuring compatibility and optimal performance as part of their Teltonika Accessories range.
Is the antenna suitable for use on vehicles or boats?
Yes, absolutely. Due to its robust, weatherproof design (IP67) and the omni-directional reception characteristics, this 4G / LTE Outdoor Antenna is excellently suited for mobile installations. It's ideal for use as a Vehicle Antenna - LTE, 5G, WiFi, on motorhomes, campers, yachts, or boats, making it perfect for the Yacht / Camper / Motorhome segment, providing reliable connectivity with its Omni-Directional Antennas.
