This antenna is an ideal choice for triple band site upgrades for high traffic areas. It can be used for
multiple bands such as Digital Dividend, CDMA, GSM, DCS, PCS, UMTS, LTE 2.6 and LTE700.

FEATURES / BENEFITS
Tripleband cross-polarized with 3 arrays (6 ports), 1x 694-960 / 2x 1695-2690 MHz
Ultra-broadband design for LTE700, LTE800 and LTE2600 compatibility
Variable electrical downtilt ³provides enhanced precision in controlling intercell interference
The tilt is infield adjustable 0-12 deg on each cross polarized antennas
Easy manual overdrive ³streamlines installation and ensures ease-of-use
Integrated RET serial numbers available on antenna radome ³eases on-site commissioning
and secures remote mapping from OMC
Enable MiMo 4x4 or 4-way RX diversity ³Ideal solution for LTE advance
High suppression of upper sidelobes ³reduces cell interference
Dual polarization ³triple band version
Design incorporates low windload and low weight ³minimizes tower loading
Quick and easy to install ³reduces installation time and costs
High reliability ³designed to last in a tower top environment
Lightning protected up to 5Kva
