Airgain Introduces Miniaturized Embedded LTE Antennas for Smart Home and LPWAN Applications
September 12 2017 - 4:05PM
Business Wire
Delivering efficiency and seamless integration
for set-top-box and gateway deployments as well as LPWAN
technologies including CAT-M1, LoRa, and NB-IoT
Airgain, Inc. (NASDAQ: AIRG), a leading provider of
embedded antenna technologies used to enable high performance
wireless networking, today introduced the Profile Contour Embedded
series of new ultra wide-band miniaturized antennas, to provide LTE
connectivity to the smart home and emerging Low Power Wide Area
Network (LPWAN) applications, including Industrial Internet of
Things (IIoT).
Targeting set-top-box and gateway deployments as well as LPWAN
applications including CAT-M1, LoRa, and NB-IoT, the latest LTE
embedded antennas from Airgain utilize an efficient flexible
polymer-based low profile design optimized for confined designs and
robust assembly variations. Available now, the antennas require
minimal incremental integration effort, minimizing the cost and
complexity typically associated with embedded antenna system
integration. These antennas provide market-leading performance for
shorter cable lengths in the lower LTE frequency ranges, making
them ideal for LPWAN applications.
With four billion Internet of Things devices expected to rely on
LPWANs by 2025, these miniaturized LTE antennas from Airgain will
help drive proliferation in LPWAN technology, which is forecasted
to be the fastest growing connectivity segment in the market
through to 20251. Airgain’s expertise and innovation in enabling
high performance wireless networking will support environments
including smart homes, smart cities, smart buildings, and IIoT
applications as they embrace LPWAN.
“The demand for the best connectivity everywhere and on
everything is transforming whole industries,” said Airgain
President and Chief Executive Officer, Charles Myers. "We are
seeing increasing demand for LTE in our traditional set-top-box
business as the smart home becomes a reality, while high growth
forecasted in IIoT applications is driving the proliferation in
technologies such as LPWAN. In this environment, an antenna which
is small, easily integrated and cost effective is fundamental,
which is why we have introduced this series of miniaturized
embedded LTE antennas. Airgain is enabling the high performance
wireless connectivity required as industries connect the
unconnected.”
With multiple applications, this latest series of embedded
antennas for LTE and LPWAN from Airgain expands its existing
Profile Contour embedded antenna product line. This builds on
Airgain’s patented antenna technology it has built over more than a
decade in delivering best-in-class wireless connectivity through
embedded antenna design and integration innovation.
Airgain will be attending MWC Americas 2017 in San
Francisco, from September 12-14, as well as IBC 2017, in
Amsterdam, from September 15-19. Visit the LoRa Alliance stand,
N.620, at MWC 2017 and stand 15.MS3 at IBC 2017 to view product
demonstrations and discuss its latest technology
offerings. Airgain's latest innovations for multi-gigabit
Wi-Fi, LTE, LPWAN, and more will be on display. To request a
