Re: Outdoor LTE antenna for C921-4PLTEAU

marcelnjkoks · ‎05-05-2022

Hi all, i'm looking for an outdoor LTE antenna that would fit on the C921-4PLTEAU, with similar characteristics to this: XPOL-002-5G.

It's not so easy to find ISR900 LTE antennas, other than the standard indoor dipole: LTE-ANTM-SMA-D.

Any ideas where to look for this with Cisco?

Haave you checked Panorama antennas like this or this?

Thanks, but no, it must be from Cisco.

The router datasheet https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/routers/900-series-integrated-services-routers-isr/datasheet-c78-741615.html#PlatformSupport links to https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/routers/connectedgrid/antennas/installing/cg_antenna_install_guide/Overview.html

You could also look at https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/routers/connectedgrid/antennas/installing-combined/b-cisco-industrial-routers-and-industrial-wireless-access-points-antenna-guide/m_Antenna-Selection.html#con_1286475 (which doesn't mention C9xx) and then check specific data for any of those parts which you like the look of.

Thanks, i had found the connected grid page.

The other page is only about wifi antennas, is was searching for LTE antennas.
