Overview

The Advantech BB-2J6A24BA-150 is a compact 2-in-1 4G LTE MIMO dome antenna for Advantech industrial cellular routers. It covers 698-960, 1710-2170 and 2500-2700 MHz on two independent omnidirectional elements, each on its own 1.5 m Dacar302 cable with an SMA-male connector. A screw mount with anti-rotation mechanism, a zamak base and an IP67, IP69K and IK09 certified housing suit it to vehicles, cabinets and outdoor enclosures from -40 to +85 °C.

  • 2-in-1 LTE MIMO: two cellular elements in one dome, each on its own cable
  • Covers 698-960, 1710-2170 and 2500-2700 MHz for 2G, 3G and 4G
  • Omnidirectional, linear polarisation, up to ~3.4 dBi peak gain (2500-2700 MHz)
  • Two 1.5 m Dacar302 cables terminated in SMA-male connectors
  • Screw mount with anti-rotation mechanism; ground plane dependent
  • IP67, IP69K and IK09 certified housing, -40 to +85 °C operating range
  • Feeds both MIMO ports of an Advantech router through a single mounting hole
  • Broad low, mid and high LTE band coverage in one antenna

The Advantech BB-2J6A24BA-150 is a 4G LTE MIMO screw mount antenna for Advantech ICR and SmartFlex/SmartStart industrial routers. Two cellular elements share one low-profile dome, Ø 77.3 x 65.5 mm. Each element has its own 1.5 m cable and SMA-male connector, so a single roof or panel penetration feeds both MIMO antenna ports on the router.

Both elements cover 698-960 MHz (700/850/900), 1710-2170 MHz (1700/1800/1900/2100) and 2500-2700 MHz (2600) for 2G, 3G and 4G service. Radiation is omnidirectional with linear polarisation, 50 Ohm impedance and a 25 W maximum input rating. Peak gain reaches approximately 3.4 dBi in the 2600 MHz band. The antenna is ground plane dependent and was measured on a 30 x 30 cm ground plane, so mount it on a metal surface such as a vehicle roof, cabinet top or steel panel for best results.

The housing is built for harsh sites. An ASA radome, zamak base and TPE gasket carry IP67, IP69K and IK09 certifications, which cover dust and immersion, high-pressure hot-water washdown and impact. The anti-rotation mechanism keeps the dome aligned once tightened. Operating and storage range is -40 to +85 °C, and the antenna is RoHS compliant.

Advantech lists the antenna as compatible with the ICR-1601, ICR-2031, ICR-2041, ICR-2431, ICR-2432, ICR-2437, ICR-2441, ICR-2531, ICR-2631, ICR-2734 Libratum, ICR-2834, ICR-3231, ICR-3232, ICR-3241, ICR-4133, ICR-4233, ICR-4434, SR304, SR305, SR308, SR309, SR310 and SL305. A manufacturer datasheet is available for this model.

Ideal for

  • Roof-mounted LTE MIMO antenna for fleet and utility vehicles running Advantech routers
  • External antenna for routers installed inside metal control cabinets and kiosks
  • Outdoor enclosure installs at pumping stations, substations and remote telemetry sites
  • Washdown environments where IP69K high-pressure cleaning is routine
  • Replacing stub antennas to improve LTE reception on industrial IoT gateways

Questions buyers ask

Does the BB-2J6A24BA-150 support 5G?

No. Advantech specifies it for 2G, 3G and 4G LTE across 698-960, 1710-2170 and 2500-2700 MHz.

How many cables and connectors does it have?

Two. Each MIMO element has its own 1.5 m Dacar302 cable terminated in an SMA-male connector.

Does it need a metal mounting surface?

It is ground plane dependent. Advantech measured its performance mounted on a 30 x 30 cm ground plane, so a metal roof or panel gives the best results.

Which Advantech routers is it compatible with?

Advantech lists the SR304, SR305, SR308, SR309, SR310, SL305, ICR-1601, ICR-2031, ICR-2041, ICR-2431, ICR-2432, ICR-2437, ICR-2441, ICR-2531, ICR-2631, ICR-2734 Libratum, ICR-2834, ICR-3231, ICR-3232, ICR-3241, ICR-4133, ICR-4233 and ICR-4434.

Is it suitable for outdoor and washdown use?

Yes. The housing is certified IP67, IP69K and IK09, and the antenna operates from -40 to +85 °C.
