Galtronics Corporation Ltd. recently launched PEAR M4773, its Dual Polarized MIMO In-Building Antenna that offers full MIMO performance and enhances data throughput for LTE (News - Alert) in-building environments.

Providing both vertical and horizontal polarization covering the MIMO 1710-2700 MHz band, the antenna accomplishes MIMO in a single proprietary design to maximize coverage for the in-building environment. The antenna offers cost and installation advantages to network operators and building owners.

“One of the unique advantages in using our ‘single’ broadband MIMO antennas for LTE is the reduced time and expense for setting up the in-building MIMO network,” said Ephraim Ulmer, president and CEO of Galtronics, in a statement. “Our PEAR M4773 with its two antennas in a single enclosure saves the cost and time of installing two spatially separated SISO antennas, as well as achieving greater performance – a key priority for building owners.”

Najed Azzam, executive vice president for the Broadband Business unit added, “With this design we offer ‘full MIMO’ performance for those operators implementing LTE in the 1.8GHz and 2.6 GHz band and for those that are implementing HSPA+ MIMO at the AWS band. We do this in a small form factor maximizing the ‘in-building’ MIMO throughput through Galtronics’ unique cross-polarized omni antenna structure that offers improved RF patterns for coverage and MIMO performance.”

“The Galtronics PEAR M4773 antenna is an extension of the benefits we continue to deliver through our revolutionary in-building PEAR antenna product line,” said Ephraim Ulmer, president and CEO of Galtronics Corporation Ltd. “Third-party on-site test results have proved the advantages of broadband MIMO capabilities for indoor installations. 

He added, “By offering the high performance of dual-polarization in a single antenna enclosure, we are extending this breakthrough performance to our customers operating in the upper bands – and we are setting the stage for further break-through announcements in the coming months.”
