TE Connectivity 5G-Ready Low-Profile MIMO Vehicular Antennas

TE Connectivity's (TE) 5G-Ready Low-Profile MIMO Vehicular Antennas (Gar and Barracuda) feature multiband operation and GNSS navigation, providing increased signal reliability, data throughput, and capacity. The Gar (VFP69383B22JN) has five ports and is configured for 2-port MIMO operation over the 3G/4G/ISM/CBRS bands and 2-port MIMO operation over the low/high-frequency Wi-Fi® bands. The additional fifth port provides an active antenna for enabling GNSS global navigation services. The Barracuda (VFH69383B23JW) has the same form factor and capabilities as Gar but adds a third port for MIMO operation over the low/high-frequency Wi-Fi bands, with the sixth port providing GNSS services.

The antennas are configured for FirstNet MIMO operation, allow for single-hole mounting, and are ideal for high-tech public safety and fleet environments. Both antennas feature IP67-rated, aerodynamic housing for highly reliable operation, even in the harshest environments. Single-hole mounting reduces the risk of vehicle damage while lowering installation costs. TE 5G-Ready Low-Profile MIMO Vehicular Antennas come with a 5-year product warranty.
