Xpol (XPOL-0002-V3-03 (5G)

Poynting XPOL-2-5G V3 Cross-Polarised 2×2 MIMO Antenna More bands. More gain. More reliable 5G and LTE. Meet the third-generation XPOL-2-5G: a serious antenna upgrade hiding inside a familiar enclosure. Poynting kept the proven XPOL-2 shape, then completely re-engineered what is happening on the inside. Advanced metamaterial technology, Artificial Magnetic Conductors and a new radiator design work together to deliver wider frequency coverage, improved gain and better overall signal performance. In less technical language? It helps your LTE or 5G router make more of the signal available outside. Whether you are connecting a home, farm, business, industrial site or remote monitoring system, the XPOL-2-5G is built to deliver faster, more stable and more dependable connectivity. Why your router will love it True 2×2 MIMO performance Two cross-polarised antenna elements work together to improve data speeds, connection stability and signal quality. Made for 5G and LTE Supports a wide range of cellular frequencies from 617 to 4200 MHz, including key 5G bands. Improved gain where it matters Delivers up to 3 dB more gain in selected 1700 MHz and 2.7 GHz bands compared with the previous XPOL-2 V2 model. Advanced internal technology Artificial Magnetic Conductors help improve antenna efficiency, bandwidth and radiation performance. Cleaner, controlled radiation patterns Designed to communicate effectively with nearby cellular towers while reducing wasted signal energy. One antenna. Multiple network generations. Compatible with 2G, 3G, 4G LTE and 5G networks, making it a solid choice for current installations and future upgrades. A major upgrade from the XPOL-2 V2 It may look similar from the outside, but this is not simply the old antenna with a new label. The V3 model has been rebuilt internally to provide: Wider frequency coverage Better gain across important cellular bands Improved signal efficiency More controlled radiation patterns Support for frequencies up to 4200 MHz Stronger performance for modern LTE and 5G routers Think of it as the trusted XPOL-2 design, now with a much smarter engine under the bonnet. Wideband frequency coverage The XPOL-2-5G covers: 617–960 MHz 1710–2170 MHz 2300–2700 MHz 3400–4200 MHz This wide frequency range allows the antenna to support many of the cellular bands used by South African and international mobile networks. Built for real-world connectivity The XPOL-2-5G is an excellent choice for: Fixed Wireless Access installations LTE and 5G home internet Business and commercial connectivity Rural and urban reception improvement Farms and agricultural operations Industrial communication systems Power, water and energy telemetry Oil and gas installations Municipal and government networks IoT and machine-to-machine applications Repeaters and cellular coverage systems Supports 5G RedCap applications 5G RedCap, short for Reduced Capability, is designed for IoT and connected devices that need reliable 5G performance without the complexity, power consumption or cost of full-scale 5G hardware. The XPOL-2-5G is well suited to these applications, helping provide the balanced performance required for modern telemetry, monitoring and connected-device networks. Important: Some 5G RedCap devices use SISO antenna connections. Where a RedCap installation requires two SISO antenna inputs, two separate SISO antennas may be needed for optimum performance. Always confirm the antenna requirements of your router or device before ordering. Is this the right antenna for your installation? The XPOL-2-5G is a great fit when you need a powerful outdoor antenna for an LTE or 5G router, particularly in areas where indoor signal is weak, unstable or blocked by building materials. For the best results, install the antenna outside, position it where it can receive the strongest available cellular signal and connect both antenna cables to a compatible 2×2 MIMO router. No tower signal outside means there is nothing useful for the antenna to capture, so checking the available signal before installation is always a smart move. The Bolton verdict The XPOL-2-5G V3 is a dependable, future-ready MIMO antenna with excellent frequency coverage and meaningful performance improvements over the previous generation. It is tough, versatile and built to help your router hold onto a better cellular connection. And better signal usually means fewer frozen calls, fewer spinning wheels and far less shouting at your router.
