Datasheet
## TN & NTN Dual-Mode Antenna - Satellite IoT Direct to Device Ready
## Direct Mount Multi-Port MIMO Antenna
Covering 4G/5G/Satellite Band 25
## **Satellite IoT D2D Ready**
The 3-port L001256-01 direct to device (D2D) antenna offers multi-protocol to support multiple applications with one antenna. They support high quality 2G, 3G, 4G, 5G, Band 25 Cellular.
They are engineered for high reliability and they support 2x2 MIMO for better throughput. The L001256-01 antenna is an excellent addition to new designs, or as a replacement for existing SISO phantom antennas suitable for both metallic and non-metallic surfaces.
## SATELLITE IOT D2D COMMUNICATIONS
Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites, positioned a few hundred km’s above Earth, orbit rapidly and are ideal for IoT networks. A LEO satellite constellation can now support low data rate communications through specific LTE frequencies.
- Dual-mode capable - Supporting Terrestrial Networks (TN) and Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTN) from a single antenna
- 698-3800 MHz terrestrial cellular coverage
- Band 25 (1900 MHz) cellular satellite coverage
- Testing available for other/future cellular satellite D2D frequency bands used by various network providers
- Enabling dual-mode communications via IoT devices
- Prioritizing terrestrial networks but capable of automatically switching to satellite when the signal is weak or unavailable
## REFERENCE SIGNAL RECEIVED POWER (RSRP) VALUES
The L001256-01 antenna was live-tested for receive signal strength. Data encompasses multiple satellite pass-overs, showing signal strength variation; exceeding the -120 dBm minimum for IoT devices.

An RSRP value of -120 dBm is generally the recognized minimum requirement suitable for the data rates of SMS, CAT-1, CAT-1 Bis connectivity.
RSRP can be susceptible to fluctuations for a variety of reasons. These can include: satellite elevation angle: antenna radiation patterns; solar flares; atmospheric conditions, and more.
