1. What does it mean that the antenna is directional?

Type of antenna which maximizes its gain in particular direction. Like a flashlight concentrates its light at one spot, directional antenna emits radio waves in a concentrated beam. Directioanl antenna radiation pattern: To learn more about directional antennas take a look at -> „link”

2. Why placing router and antenna in one enclosure is better?

The biggest benefit of router and antenna being next to each other is the reduction of cable used to connect the elements. Reducing the cable length reduces its loss, which has high impact on signal quality.

IPXY is an Ingress Protection Rating, which defines protection levels of certain product. X from 0-6 defines security level from penetration of solids. Y from 0-9 defines security level from water.

Directional High Gain 5G/LTE MIMO 4x4 antenna

QuPanel 14 HV 5G/LTE directional MIMO 4x4 high gain antenna is predicted for 5G and 4G LTE mainly. The antenna improves the signal in rural/suburban and locations where the mobile signal is weak. That antenna is predicted to be installed on the buildings (on the pole or on the wall). Due to very wide working frequency range, the antenna is universal client for 5G bands n77, n78. High quality injection moulded enclosure allows to implement it alongside with indoor and IP67 outdoor solutions. GPS antenna and QuPoE 802.3af splitter are also included inside. Compatible with: Teltonika RUTX50
