Quick Summary

Find out about the class leading Poynting vehicle and marine antennas. Learn which solutions are best for extending your networks and signals.

Poynting is a known brand in many industries and one of the top global antenna manufacturers, providing versatile antenna solutions across many European regions. They are known for their antenna innovation with over 20 antenna patents, and they don’t just stop there as they keep innovating and developing their products to keep up with the individual industry demands.

Poynting work with multiple organisations and carefully selected projects that require implementation of their antennas. This means that Poynting antennas are created to suit any particular industry and niche use cases, when required. This should give you confidence that their published antenna performance metrics are real and not overstated, because they are based on real case studies.

Poynting Transportation and Marine Antennas

As standard, Poynting offer superior antenna design for transportation and marine industries, with high impact and IP ratings for extreme and rugged environments. It is important to consider the environmental parameters when looking to purchase a specific antenna. For example, where and how the antenna will be deployed? Is the antenna likely to be exposed to high temperatures, submerged in water, or is there a chance of physical impact?

Poynting offer a vast variety of transportation and marine antennas, but we thought we’d share some of our favourite picks below.

Vehicle Antennas

Poynting’s PUCK range offers a brilliant solution for your vehicle, allowing you to enjoy better signal, like some of the antennas below.

Poynting PUCK antenna

PUCK-1 is a PUCK antenna for LTE (SISO) and to be used only for LTE applications.

  • Small but high performance LTE antenna

  • Antenna covers RFID and 2.4GHz WiFi bands

  • Great product for transportation, smart buildings, IoT and M2M applications

  • To be used where existing coverage is good

  • High environmental specifications, including being fire resistant

  • Various mounting options included

Poynting PUCK antenna

PUCK-2 is a PUCK antenna featuring 2-in-1 LTE (MIMO) and is to be used for LTE applications where 2x2 MIMO is desired.

  • Small but high performance MIMO LTE antenna

  • Antenna covers RFID and 2.4GHz WiFi bands

  • Great product for transportation, smart buildings, IoT and M2M applications

  • To be used where existing coverage is good but where MIMO is required

  • High environmental specifications, including being fire resistant

  • Various mounting options included

Poynting PUCK antenna

PUCK-12 is a GPS only antenna which is presented in the same housing as all of the other PUCK antennas.

  • Small but high performance WiFi (MIMO) antenna

  • Great product for industrial WiFi applications

  • 7.5dBi Gain

  • High environmental specifications, including being fire resistant

  • Various mounting options included

Mobile Vehicle and Marine Antennas

Although, PUCK-1 and PUCK-2 are ok to use in a small harbour for LTE connections, they do not cater for application that are too far out at sea. The Poynting antennas that have a combined use for transportation and marine purposes are usually omni-directional and with low gain, such as the examples below.

Poynting PUCK antenna

PUCK-5 is a PUCK antenna featuring 5-in-1 LTE (MIMO), WiFi (MIMO) and GPS. The antenna is great to use if your application requires LTE 2x2 MIMO, WiFi 2x2 MIMO and GPS - Cellular with WiFi.

  • Small but high performance SISO LTE + Wi- Fi + GPS antenna

  • Antenna also covers RFID band

  • Great product for transportation, smart buildings, IoT and M2M applications

  • To be used where existing coverage is good

  • High environmental specifications, including being fire resistant

  • Various mounting options included

Poynting MIMO antenna

MIMO-3-V2-15 is a 5-in-1, 5G ready, antenna system within a single housing, providing 2x Cellular, 2x WiFi and 1x GPS/GLONASS.

  • 5-in-1 high performance multi-frequency 2G/3G/4G/5G MIMO antenna with Dual Band WiFi and GPS

  • With 450-3800MHz

  • Ideal for transportation and marine industries

  • IP68 rating

  • Max gain 5.8dBi/Low VSWR

  • Spigot and Surface mounts included

  • Magnetic mount available to purchase separately

Marine and Coastal Antennas

Poynting antennas that are specifically designed for marine use are usually OMNI-Directional and with medium or high gain, such as the antennas below.

Poynting Omni-291 antenna

OMNI-291 is a marine and coastal, medium gain, LTE SISO antenna for Cellular and WiFi applications.

  • High performance futureproof LTE SISO

  • Covers the 450MHz band

  • Dual band medium gain omni-directional WiFi marine antenna

  • Covers the 3.3 - 3.8GHz band

  • Vandal UV and salt-water protected

  • IP68 rating

  • Max gain 7.5dBi

  • Various marine mounting options available for purchase separately

Are you onboard?

Across all verticals, Poynting have a very good relationship between performance, quality and price. If you think of it this way - consequential costs of communications failure is much larger than the cost of a Poynting antenna.

The most exciting thing is that Poynting do not only specialise in transportation and marine antennas, they also cater well for the following industries:

  • Mining/Tunnelling

  • Smart Metering

  • Agriculture

  • Factory Automation

  • Wireless Broadband

  • Smart Cities
