Combination antennas (or combo antennas) integrate multiple individual antennas into a single unit. Each combo antenna supports different technologies and frequency bands, enabling IoT devices to maintain multiple forms of connectivity. In some applications, this ensures always-on connectivity, while in others, the priority may be minimizing cost or maximizing bandwidth.
Combination antennas now offer extensive design possibilities. Designs are only limited by the space available, and we can swap and change internal antenna elements to support any frequency band required to meet bespoke specifications. Although relatively complex to develop, installation is also straightforward because designers only require one mounting point for the entire assembly. And, while cost and complexity have previously limited the potential of this market, this is now rapidly changing.
In recent years, the cost and complexity of producing combo antennas have dropped significantly and they are now accessible to a broader range of users. Manufacturers like Quectel can then reduce development and production expenses by reusing proven form factors at scale. We also lower costs by integrating antenna technologies originally developed for other IoT devices into our combo designs and pass these savings on to customers. We further leverage our in-house manufacturing capabilities and strong supplier relationships to reduce the price of housings and other components.
To meet diverse application needs, we offer a broad range of combo antennas tailored to individual customer requirements. Our models include all possible antenna types, fully tested and isolated, that fit into unified form factors without interference. This enables use cases which would not previously have been viable.
We can also deliver them as part of a complete solution that includes both the antenna and the module. Additionally, we provide semi-custom options and modifications, such as adjustable cable lengths and different connector types, ensuring our combo antennas meet your specific needs.
