First, What is a Cellular Panel Antenna and How Does It Work?

Panel antennas are directional antennas that send and receive cellular signals from a specific direction. Their radiation beam will vary but typically ranges from 45 to 70 degrees. The lower its dBi gain, the more directional it is, thus the farther it can reach. This enables more precise and efficient signal transmission and reception.

When used outside, the panel antenna must point at your desired provider's cell tower to effectively capture available signals and relay them even stronger directly to the connected cellular device. When used indoors, it’s best to install the panel antenna facing the area you’d like it to cover.

With their focused signal, panel antennas can limit interference from unwanted sources and provide a stronger, higher quality, more stable connection. When paired with a cell phone signal booster or cellular router, they can significantly enhance performance.

Why Choose the Bolton Beacon Cellular Panel Antenna?

While this might be a biased opinion, the Bolton Beacon antenna offers various features that make it superior to the competition. Not only will it help you stay connected with a stronger signal, but it also offers convenience. Below is everything that makes the Bolton Beacon better and different:

Versatile Use

Most cellular panel antennas are either designed for outdoor or indoor use. Not the Beacon Bolton antenna. This antenna can be used for both, giving you the flexibility to place it wherever you need it most. Perfect for various environments, it’s easily deployable in RVs, apartments, homes, and business buildings.

You can integrate the Beacon antenna with a cell phone signal booster or cellular router. There is a 4G and 5G option. The 4G Beacon is built with an F-Female connector, while the 5G Beacon has an N-Female connector. Keep the connectors in mind as some devices will require a coaxial adapter for proper connection.

Suction Cup Mounted

Including a suction cup mount, installing the Bolton Beacon is quick and easy. There is no need to drill holes in the walls, making it a renter-friendly antenna. All you have to do is suction it to a window or a similar surface. Using heavy-duty suction cups, it’s not going anyway. Just make sure you clean the surface with an alcohol wipe prior.

For those who need more permanent setups, the Bolton Beacon antenna also supports wall-mounting and pole-mounting options, giving you multiple antenna mounting choices to suit your specific environment.

Adjustable Mounting Bracket

One of the most convenient features of the Bolton Beacon antenna is its 180-degree adjustable mounting bracket. With this type of bracket, aiming the antenna at your desired cell tower takes minimal effort. Most competing antennas don’t offer rapid adjustability, making installation take longer.

High Gain

While compact (165x155x50 mm), this panel antenna is pretty powerful. It features up to 7.5 dBi gain. It’s able to capture cellular signals from distant cell towers and broadcast a strong signal for better connectivity.

This is particularly beneficial for users in remote areas or locations with weak signals, as it enhances the overall performance of your cellular devices by providing a stronger and more stable signal.

Supported Frequencies

Both Bolton Beacon Cellular Panel Antenna versions support a wide range of frequencies. The Bolton Beacon 4G covers frequencies from 698-2700 MHz, ensuring compatibility with most current cellular technologies. For those looking to future-proof their setup, the Beacon 5G variant supports an even broader range of frequencies, from 617-4000 MHz.

Whether you're using the latest 5G technology or sticking with 4G, this cellular antenna has you covered, ensuring you get the best possible performance.

Available Configurations

The 4G and 5G Bolton Beacon options are available in several configurations to accommodate different installation scenarios:

  • 20-Feet Cable Option: Ideal for interior installations, allowing you to place the antenna in the optimal location within your home, apartment, office, or RV to get the best signal.
  • 6-Feet Cable Option: Perfect for most outdoor installations where the cable needs to be run indoors, providing versatility in placement.
  • 10-Inch Pigtail Option: Designed for custom setups, giving you the flexibility to tailor the installation to your specific requirements.

These configurations ensure that the Bolton Beacon antenna can be tailored to meet your specific requirements, allowing you to get the most out of your unit in any environment.
