IDY launches the iAN263-L5G high-gain Local 5G antenna

IDY has developed the iAN263-L5G high-gain antenna for Local 5G, with sales beginning in September 2025.

Background

5G Sub-6 enables high-capacity communications but experiences greater propagation loss than lower bands. In factories, logistics sites and ports, uplink quality can therefore become a constraint. The iAN263-L5G addresses coverage and uplink performance through antenna engineering rather than relying on device power alone.

Key features

• Supports the 4,550–5,000MHz Local 5G band
• Two-in-one MIMO antenna architecture in a single weather-resistant enclosure
• IP56 bathtub enclosure with two SMA male connectors
• Standard 3m cable with 4m and 15m configurations available

Radiation pattern and antenna gain

Compared with the wideband iAN262-5GS6 in Band n79, the antenna achieves more than +4dB higher peak gain and more than +3dB higher average gain.
