LTE antennas

What are LTE Antennas? 

LTE antennas are a key component of any network infrastructure, enabling optimal use of 4G LTE services. They enable a strong and stable signal even in difficult conditions, such as areas with poor coverage or buildings with thick walls. Choosing the right LTE antenna can significantly improve connection quality, data rates and network coverage. 

Different types of antennas  

• Antennas integrated into the router - One popular solution is LTE antennas integrated into routers, which allow the device to quickly and easily connect to the mobile network. This type of solution is ideal for small offices, homes or remote monitoring applications. 

• External antennas for routers - For more demanding users who need greater range and stability, outdoor LTE antennas are the best choice. These models are weatherproof and offer much better performance than standard indoor antennas, making them ideal for harsher terrain. 

How do I choose the right LTE antenna? 

1. Range and signal strength: If you are in an area with poor coverage, consider an external LTE antenna, which can significantly boost the signal. For example, Extralink ELTEBOX RUT950 is an excellent choice if you need a strong signal in remote locations. This type of outdoor antenna will provide a stable connection and better coverage. 

2. Compatibility with devices: Make sure the antenna is compatible with your LTE router to get the most out of it. For example, if you are using a Teltonika RUT240 router, a good choice would be to Extralink ELTEBOX RUT240which is specifically designed to work with this model. 

3. Installation conditions: If you are planning to install an antenna outdoors, look out for weatherproof models that can operate reliably in a range of temperatures and humidity. Outdoor antennas, such as the ELTEBOX RUT950 model mentioned above, are designed with such conditions in mind.
