SPECIFICATION Ultra-Wideband Adhesive Type External Antenna Part No. : GSA.8827.A.101111 Phoenix Product Name : 2G/3G/4G Ultra-wideband I–Bar Antenna for First-Tier Automotive Application Feature : LTE / GSM / CDMA /DCS /PCS / WCDMA / UMTS / HSDPA / GPRS / EDGE /GPS /Wi-Fi 698MHz to 960MHz, 1575.42MHz, 1710MHz to 2700Mhz 1M RG-174 cable with SMA(M) connector Ingress protection rating IP65 Low profile for easy installation Fully customizable cable length and connector 105mm*30*7.7mm RoHS compliant SPE-13-8-025/D/PK Page 1 of 21 1. Introduction The GSA.8827 Phoenix Ultra-Wideband I-Bar antenna is a robust high efficiency cellular antenna for use with all 2G/3G/4G cellular modules worldwide. Its slim-line design allows for covert and convenient installation in automotive vehicles, its omni-directional gain across all bands ensures constant reception and transmission. GSA.8827 is manufactured and tested in a TS16949 first tier automotive approved facility, and it has gone through full PPAP design, reliability and quality audits. The Phoenix finds its application particularly in first-tier automotive application, aftermarket and telematics. With its unique ultra-wide band dipole design, the Phoenix has exceptional industry performance characteristics considering its very low profile at 7.7mm and has a compact size of only 105mm*30mm. This antenna is designed to be mounted on glass or plastic (not on metal). It comes with strong 3M double-sided adhesive for a permanent and secure fix to your vehicle interior. The antenna is UV Resistant. Cable lengths and connectors are fully customizable. SPE-13-8-025/D/PK Page 2 of 21 2.
