Covering all worldwide cellular frequencies from 600 MHz to 6 GHz, along with GPS, GLONASS, and BeiDou bands, it achieves stable gain and efficiency that are typically difficult to realize in such a compact 101 × 101 × 20 mm form factor. A key differentiator of the Comet MA58x series is its ability to maintain strong performance when mounted directly on metallic enclosures. Competing antennas typically experience severe efficiency losses in the lower 5G/4G bands (617–960 MHz), but the Comet was designed specifically to overcome this challenge. Leveraging Taoglas’ proprietary all-metal PIFA design and advanced bandwidth optimization techniques, the MA58x Series delivers consistently higher efficiency and more reliable radiation even when installed on metal housings with feed cables routed inside. This robust design ensures dependable connectivity where other low-profile antennas fail, making the Comet series particularly well-suited for fleet and transport telematics, public safety, gateways, and other missioncritical applications that demand both a discreet form factor and reliable operation on metallic or equipment surfaces. Typical Applications Include: - Telematics, Transport and Fleet Management - Gateways and Routers - Digital Signage, Smart Kiosks and Point of Sale Terminals - First Responders, Public Safety and Critical Communications - Construction, Mining, and Heavy Equipment The Comet has been designed to be permanent mount/screw mount. This allows it to be utilized and installed in applications where a strong and secure mechanical attachment is required, ensuring reliable performance even in high-vibration or harsh environments. The GNSS and cellular MIMO connections utilize 2m of TGC1.5DS coaxial cable with SMA(M) connectors as standard. Customized cable and connector versions are also available upon request.
