Its housing made of UV-stable ABS plastic and the certified protection class IP67 guarantee that neither water nor dirt can harm the sensitive technology. This antenna was developed for demanding outdoor use and is the perfect choice if you are looking for an absolutely reliable and durable solution. It belongs to the category of the best Vehicle Antennas - 4G, 5G, WiFi and is a must-have for professional setups.
Stable Connections Where You Need Them
Behind the robust exterior lies precise technology. The 4G and WiFi Antenna elements impress with an excellent VSWR value of less than 1.5:1, which minimizes signal loss due to reflections and maximizes efficiency. The highlight is the active GNSS antenna: an integrated low-noise amplifier (LNA) boosts the satellite signal by 28 dB. The result is faster and significantly more accurate positioning, even under difficult reception conditions. This antenna is therefore an essential Teltonika Accessories for anyone who relies on precise data.
Easy Installation, Maximum Flexibility
The installation of the PR1KCS28 is extremely simple and secure. Thanks to the M12 threaded bolt, the antenna is firmly screwed to the surface and remains rock-solid even with strong vibrations. The three-meter long, flexible RG174 cables give you enough leeway to optimally position your router in the vehicle or housing. The standardized SMA (for 4G and GNSS) and RP-SMA (for WiFi) connectors ensure compatibility with a variety of devices, especially with the Teltonika router series. A smart solution for all M2M / IoT Antennas - 4G, 5G, WiFi applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Is the Teltonika PR1KCS28 antenna compatible with every 4G router?
No, compatibility depends on the connectors. The antenna uses an SMA connector for 4G/GNSS and an RP-SMA connector for WiFi. It is optimized for devices like the Teltonika RUT955, but works with any router that has these separate connectors and provides the necessary voltage for the active GNSS antenna.
Does the GPS antenna require a separate Power Supply?
No, the active GNSS antenna (LNA) is powered directly via the Antenna Cable from the router's GNSS port with voltage (2.7-5.0 V DC). A separate power cable is not required.
Can I improve the range of my home WiFi with this antenna?
This antenna is not designed to improve home WiFi. It serves as an external antenna for mobile routers in vehicles or IoT applications to provide a local WiFi signal. The antenna gain is too low for a significant range increase.
Is the antenna suitable for use at sea (maritime use)?
Thanks to the IP67 certification, the antenna is very well protected against water and suitable for use in rain and splash water. However, for permanent use in saltwater environments, the corrosion resistance of the metal parts should be checked.
Does the antenna support the new 5G mobile standard?
No, the frequency bands of this antenna are optimized for 4G networks. It does not cover the primary, higher frequency bands required for the full speed of 5G.
What does SISO mean in the context of this antenna?
SISO stands for 'Single-Input, Single-Output'. This means that the antenna provides only a single transmission path for 4G and WiFi respectively, in contrast to MIMO systems which use multiple antennas to increase data rate and stability.
