Company Also Promotes Miniature Ceiling
Mount Dual-Band WiFi Antenna
PCTEL, Inc. (NASDAQ:PCTI), a leader in simplifying wireless and
site solutions for private and public networks, announced the
launch of its new dual-band WiFi antennas for in-building wireless
networks at the Aruba Networks® Airheads Conference 2014. PCTEL’s
new MIMO flat panel antenna maximizes data throughput. The MIMO
antenna’s pattern control achieves excellent indoor performance
with minimal interference. PCTEL will also be featuring a dual-band
miniature ceiling mount WiFi antenna at the conference.
PCTEL’s new 802.11n MIMO WiFi panel antenna provides four-port
diversity coverage of 2.4-2.5 GHz WiFi and 4.9-5.9 GHz broadband
wireless frequencies in an attractive, compact package. It is
designed with UL 94-V0 listed plastic and PC boards to address
strict building safety codes for indoor installations. Multi-port
MIMO functionality and optimized radiation pattern design enables
high data throughput levels for data-intensive applications. It is
ideal for enclosure, wall, or mast mount installations in
classrooms, hospitals, office buildings, or retail
establishments.
The miniature ceiling mount omnidirectional antenna (MCMI2458
series) provides high performance wideband coverage of 2.4 GHz and
5 GHz WiFi bands without tuning. The antenna’s housing is only 2 mm
thick, 42 mm tall, and 31 mm wide. This tiny footprint provides
minimum visibility on a ceiling tile installation.
“Education, healthcare, enterprise, and other sectors place
great emphasis on both the performance and aesthetics of their WiFi
networks,” said Jeff Miller, President of PCTEL Connected
Solutions. "PCTEL’s latest carrier-grade WiFi antennas fill
important gaps in the market for attractive, high performance
antennas. We will continue to develop solutions that are
technologically market relevant, while meeting the demanding
requirements of in-building wireless installations,” added
Miller.
