Omni-directional antenna DeLOCK 12428

The DeLOCK 12428 omni-directional antenna provides multi-band LTE reception for indoor and outdoor use. Designed for a central frequency of 2.6 GHz with vertical polarization and 50 Ω impedance, the compact 465 mm black antenna supports a range of wireless standards including GSM, UMTS, Bluetooth, WLAN 2.4 GHz, ZigBee, DECT, Z-Wave and LoRa (868 / 915 MHz).

Advantages

This antenna offers an omni-directional radiation pattern with a modest gain of 0.6 dBi, compact form factor (465 mm height) and compatibility with multiple wireless protocols. The 50 Ω impedance and vertical polarization ensure straightforward integration with standardized RF equipment. Supplied in a polybag as a single unit, it is ready for installation in various environments.

Suitable for

• Improving reception for LTE-enabled routers and gateways
• Integrating into IoT and smart-home devices using ZigBee, Z-Wave or LoRa
• Extending range for Bluetooth, GSM or UMTS radio links
• Use with WLAN 2.4 GHz devices where vertical polarization is required

How to use

Mount the antenna in a vertical orientation to match its vertical polarization and connect it to the device RF connector compatible with a 50 Ω antenna input. Place the antenna in a location with minimal obstructions for best omni-directional coverage; for outdoor use ensure the connector and mounting point are weather-protected. Confirm device settings and network bands to match the antenna's supported frequencies before operation.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, position the antenna away from large metal objects and sources of interference. When used outdoors, use weatherproof adapters or enclosures for the connector and check regulatory band permissions for LoRa and other radio technologies in your region.
