Swivel (Rubber) Antenna, Cellular Cell-US, Omni Radiation, Unity Gain with SMA Male Connector
Ultra-Compact Swivel "Rubber Duck" US-Band Cellular Solution
The commercial-grade "Cell-US" ultra-compact flexible rubber duck antenna is engineered to deliver reliable, multi-band cellular connectivity across standard North American carrier frequencies. Providing unity gain (0 dBi) across primary US cellular, LTE, and sub-6 GHz 5G bands, this antenna features a true omnidirectional (360°) radiation pattern. Its compact design is specifically optimized for short-range deployments, localized network nodes, and applications where a high-gain profile is unnecessary or would introduce unwanted multi-path reflections. It ensures uniform peripheral coverage and signal reception from all horizontal directions, making it an excellent choice for stabilizing wireless throughput on regional cellular routers, smart meters, and space-constrained telemetry equipment.
Measuring just 3-1/4 inches in length, this antenna features a ruggedized, flexible thermoplastic (rubber) radome that protects the internal radiating element from impact, vibration, and harsh physical environments. It is equipped with an integrated hinged swivel base, allowing the antenna to tilt (90°) and rotate (360°). This mechanical flexibility enables field technicians to position the antenna vertically regardless of the orientation of the host device's chassis, optimizing signal polarization and bypassing nearby physical obstructions. The base terminates in a standard SMA Male (Plug) connector—featuring internal threads and a center male pin—ensuring a secure, vibration-resistant direct mechanical connection to industrial cellular modems, routers, and gateway nodes without the need for adapters.
