PCTEL announced that its UL certified PIM160 LTE MIMO antenna achieved SAR (Specific Absorption Rate) Certification in Europe. This certification permits mobile operators, building owners and systems integrators to deploy PCTEL’s PIM160 MIMO antenna for high-performance, in-building 4G and DAS applications.
SAR certification testing by UL ensures that indoor antennas comply with European limits on RF energy levels. These standards protect people from unsafe RF radiation as operators build out in-building wireless infrastructure to provide high quality wireless coverage in malls, hospitals, airports, stadiums and hotels.
A member of PCTEL’s VenU® line, the new PIM160 antenna addresses indoor, ceiling-mounted applications. The PIM160 antenna reduces dropped calls, frozen video streams and slow data – problems that PIM interference frequently creates.
The combination of SAR certification, ultra-low PIM, broadband coverage and low-profile design make the PIM160 antenna a good choice for DAS applications in Europe.
