Hi,
I’m using a SARA R5 MicroMod board in an application where the device is buried rather deep in the bowels of a boat. I have a (Sparkfun provided) GNSS puck antenna, but I would also like to have an LTE antenna that I can locate somewhere with a better view of the outside world (but not outdoors).
Any suggestions? (Could this be a sparkfun offering? I’m willing to pay a markup to save the hassle of finding something that just works)
cheers
Doug
We don’t currently carry much (https://www.sparkfun.com/products/16432), but https://www.amazon.com/s?k=lte+puck+ant … _sb_noss_1 and https://www.digikey.com/en/products/det … NM/5816227 might be good places to poke around…just be sure to match the freq band (R5 is 5G-ready)
And I wondered about https://www.digikey.com/en/products/det … A/17101898
There are some pretty significant differences in price and, it seems, gain. I think I’ll be doing some experiments.
