Scantronic COM-ANT-01 | External Cellular Antenna | For 4G/GSM Communicators
£12.82 (inc VAT: £15.38)
Summary
The Scantronic COM-ANT-01 is an external GSM antenna designed to enhance cellular signal reception for Eaton Scantronic intruder alarm communication modules. When control panels are installed in metal enclosures or areas with weak mobile network coverage, this antenna provides the solution for reliable connectivity to the SecureConnect cloud platform.
Specifically engineered for use with the COM-DATA-4G 4G/2G communication module and the COM-SD-GSM GSM transmitter, the COM-ANT-01 connects via MMCX connector and must be mounted externally to the control unit enclosure. This allows installers to position the antenna in optimal locations for maximum signal strength, ensuring consistent alarm transmission and remote monitoring capabilities.

FAQ
What is the Scantronic COM-ANT-01 used for?
The COM-ANT-01 is an external GSM antenna designed to improve cellular signal reception for Scantronic alarm communication modules. It is essential when the control panel is installed in a metal enclosure or in locations where mobile network coverage is poor, ensuring reliable transmission of alarm signals and maintaining connectivity to the SecureConnect cloud service.
Which Scantronic communication modules are compatible with the COM-ANT-01?
The COM-ANT-01 is compatible with the Scantronic COM-DATA-4G 4G/2G communication module and the COM-SD-GSM plug-on GSM communicator. These modules feature an MMCX connector specifically for connecting the external antenna when required.
Where should the COM-ANT-01 antenna be installed?
The antenna must be fitted outside of the control unit enclosure to function correctly. For optimal signal reception, position the antenna away from metal surfaces and obstructions. Installers should survey the installation location to identify the best mounting position for maximum signal strength.
What frequency bands does the COM-ANT-01 support?
The antenna supports multiple frequency bands including 800MHz, 850MHz, 900MHz, 1800MHz and 1900MHz. This multi-band capability ensures compatibility with various UK mobile network operators and supports both 2G GSM and 4G LTE connectivity through the compatible communication modules.
Is the COM-ANT-01 included with the COM-DATA-4G module?
No, the COM-ANT-01 is sold separately as an optional accessory. The COM-DATA-4G module has a built-in internal antenna which may be sufficient in locations with good mobile signal. The external antenna is only required when the internal antenna cannot achieve adequate signal strength.
