Frequently Asked Questions
- Q1: What makes a Log Periodic Antenna (LPDA) different from a standard panel antenna?
- A: An LPDA is a wideband directional antenna that maintains high gain and consistent performance across a very broad frequency spectrum. Unlike standard panel antennas, it is engineered for multi-frequency applications, making it ideal for covering 2G through 4G LTE with a single device.
- Q2: Why is the 11dBi gain significant for indoor/outdoor signal boosters?
- A: A 11dBi gain indicates a high degree of signal concentration. This allows the antenna to reach distant base stations or provide stronger signal penetration through walls in indoor DAS environments, ensuring reliable connectivity in difficult signal areas.
- Q3: How does the Low PIM (-150dBc) rating improve system reliability?
- A: Passive Intermodulation (PIM) can cause interference that degrades data speeds. A rating of ≤-150dBc ensures that the antenna itself does not generate unwanted noise, which is essential for high-capacity cellular networks where signal purity is critical.
- Q4: What is the benefit of a 75-degree horizontal beamwidth?
- A: A 75° beamwidth provides a broad directional coverage area. It is wide enough to cover an entire room or a specific outdoor sector while still focusing the power forward to maintain high gain and signal stability.
- Q5: Can this antenna be used for both donor and service antenna applications?
- A: Absolutely. It is commonly used as a donor antenna (to receive signal from the tower) because of its directional high gain, but it can also serve as a service antenna in large corridors or tunnels where directional signal throw is required.
