If your LTE or 5G router supports 4x4 MIMO external antennas, and you're looking to get the absolutebest data rates, using 4x4 cross-polarized MIMO external antennas is often the best option.
Our MIMO Log Periodic 11 dBi Hotspot/Router External Antenna kit for4G LTE/5G Hotspots & Routersincludes everything you need, including the adapters necessary to connect the four MIMO antennas to your hotspot or LTE router.
Our Log Periodic antennas offer up to 11 dBi gain between 1710 and 6000 MHz, and 10 dBi gain between 600 MHz and 900 MHz.
These directional antennas are also sometimes referred to as "yagi antennas", but they are technically called log periodic antennas.
Including our Ultra-Flexible Quad-RS240 Cables
Our Quad-RS240 30ft cables make it easier than ever to connect your 4x4 MIMO Antenna to your LTE router, hotspot, or signal booster system. This cable assembly has four strands of low loss RS240 coaxial cable glued and sheathed, with SMA-Male connectors on the "indoor" end, to minimize the bulk of running multiple cables and make installation easier than ever.
Also included in the bundle are four SMA-Female to TS9-Male pigtail adapters, four SMA-Female to U.FL pigtail connectors, and four SMA-Male to N-Male connectors, to ensure you have everything you might need to connect almost any device.
MIMO Log Periodic vs MIMO Panel
We also sell a 4x4 MIMO Panel Antenna Kit for Hotspots/Routers that is very similar to this kit but uses a single MIMO Panel Antenna that makes installation easier, but has less gain. We recommend using the MIMO Log Periodic Antennas if you have line-of-sight to your nearest cell towers. If you're surrounded by trees, buildings, or hills, this MIMO Panel Antenna Kit will likely perform somewhat better than the Log Periodic Antenna Kit.
Choosing between 4x4 MIMO and 2x2 MIMO
Installing external MIMO antennas is all about maximizing your data speeds. Different routers and hotspots have different configurations for external antenna ports.
Most hotspots, like theNetgear Nighthawk M1andVerizon Jetpack 8800Lwill have two antenna ports, while some of the more advanced routers like theT-Mobile 5G Gatewayand theMoFi 5500often have four ports.
Our MIMO External Antenna Kits are available in both 4x4 MIMO and 2x2 MIMO configurations, with 4 and 2 antenna elements respectively.
Which one you should pick depends entirely on the device you have. If your device has four antenna ports, then it's usually best to go with a4x4 MIMO Antenna kit, while if you’re working with only two external antenna ports, then you’ll want the2x2 MIMO Antenna Kit.
