Multi-port spatially diverse antennas (2x2 / 4x4) for high-throughput MIMO links. This page covers how the class behaves specifically in 5g antennas work, and lists the 3 catalog models that fit.
What this class does well
Two or four spatially separated ports let the radio run parallel spatial streams, which raises throughput without additional spectrum. In a reflective environment the multipath that would otherwise hurt the link is what makes the gain possible.
Where it falls down
The throughput gain depends on the environment supplying enough multipath and enough isolation between ports. On a clean line-of-sight link the second stream may add nothing while still costing a second feedline.
The range we stock
Across the 3 models in this class the gain runs from 2 to 4 dBi, frequency coverage from 2400 to 5850 MHz, and the longest dimension from 405 mm to 405 mm. Check the size figure early. It decides the mount, and on a shared mast it decides whether the part fits at all.
MIMO Antenna models
| Model | Band (MHz) | Gain | Polarization | Length | Connector |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| AW-MM2425-4x15 | 2400–2500 | 4x15 dBi | Dual ±45° slant / MIMO | 405 mm | N-Female |
| AW-MM2425-2x15 | 2400–2500 | 2x15 dBi | Dual ±45° slant / MIMO | 405 mm | N-Female |
| AW-MM5800-2x15 | 5725–5850 | 2x15 dBi | Dual ±45° slant / MIMO | 405 mm | N-Female |
Specifying one for 5g antennas
Sector panels are pole- or tower-mounted with mechanical and electrical downtilt; fixed-wireless CPE uses directional wall- or pole-mounted panels aimed at the serving cell. Confirm the connector before ordering: changing the interface later means either an adapter, which adds a mismatch and a failure point, or a re-terminated cable. Standard builds ship with an N-Female interface.
