Description

The MA-ANT-C1-B is a narrow, directional cellular patch antenna from the Meraki MG cellular gateway antenna range. It is certified for use with the Meraki MG21E and suits sites where the gateway has a weak cellular signal. Mounted high on a pole or wall with a clear line of sight to a cell tower, it delivers higher directional gain, signal quality and power than the standard antennas.

The antenna covers 698-791, 824-960, 1710-2170 and 2570-2690 MHz, with 4 dBi gain in the 700 and 960 MHz ranges, 8 dBi at 2170 MHz and 7 dBi at 2690 MHz. Beamwidth is 60 degrees horizontal and 60 degrees vertical. It has two linear-polarised ports, horizontal and vertical, for 2x2 MIMO operation, and connects through RP-SMA connectors on a 100 cm cable. The PC-ABS housing measures 220 x 220 x 46 mm and weighs 550 g.

This is a passive antenna, so it needs no power supply or PoE, and no licence is required for the antenna itself. The connected MG gateway needs its own Meraki cloud licence. It is rated for operation from -40 to +85 C, with 95 percent humidity tolerance at 55 C.

FAQs

Q: Which Meraki gateway is this antenna certified for?
A: It is certified for use with the Meraki MG21E only and connects using RP-SMA connectors.

Q: Does the antenna need a licence or power supply?
A: No. It is a passive antenna with no power or PoE requirement, and no licence is needed for the antenna itself. The connected MG gateway needs its own Meraki cloud licence.

Q: Where should this antenna be mounted?
A: It mounts to walls and poles. For best results, mount it high with a clear line of sight to the cell tower so the directional gain can improve signal quality and power.

Q: Which cellular frequency bands does it cover?
A: It covers 698-791, 824-960, 1710-2170 and 2570-2690 MHz, with gain of up to 8 dBi in the 2170 MHz range.

Q: How is this narrow patch antenna different from the standard MG antennas?
A: It is directional with a 60 degree horizontal and vertical beamwidth, giving higher gain towards a single cell tower than the standard antennas.
