PCTEL, Inc. (NASDAQ:PCTI), a leader in Performance
Critical Telecom solutions, announced today the
addition of a 3-Port and 4-Port compact MIMO Panel antenna to its
VenU™ broadband wireless access products. PCTEL’s VenU antenna
products enable high data rate connectivity and improve wireless
network capacity in stadiums, transportation hubs, and other
crowded areas. These new, compact VenU antennas solve installation
and aesthetic challenges without sacrificing data throughput.
PCTEL’s compact MIMO panel antennas provide excellent dual-band
coverage for high-speed 802.11ac Wi-Fi networks covering both
2.4-2.5 GHz and 4.9-5.9 GHz on each port. Their low profile form
factor allows installation on ceilings and handrails, and under
seats.
“Venue capacity, rather than coverage, poses today’s key network
engineering challenge,” said Rishi Bharadwaj, Vice President and
General Manager of PCTEL Connected Solutions. “Users expect
uninterrupted, high-quality data throughput everywhere. Our
broadband antenna products support high-capacity networks that
utilize beamforming features and high efficiency characteristics to
optimize data transmission,” added Bharadwaj.
PCTEL’s VenU antennas meet the rigorous performance requirements
of major OEM radio manufacturers and latest enhancements of the
802.11ac Wave 2 wireless standard. These enhancements include
Multi-user MIMO (MU-MIMO) transmit beamforming and wider RF channel
bandwidth.
PCTEL’s VenU compact flat panel antennas will be available by
mid-September with a variety of mounting solutions for shipment
worldwide.
