Cradlepoint 170907-000 Cellular Antenna SMA Direct Attach
Overview
The Cradlepoint 170907-000 is a cellular antenna engineered for the W1855 Series 5G Wideband Adapter. Operating across 600 MHz to 6 GHz, this SMA direct-attach antenna captures broadband and cellular signals for mobile and remote connectivity deployments. The charcoal form factor integrates into Cradlepoint wireless infrastructure without requiring external adapters or bulky connectors—a practical choice when space and installation speed matter in vehicle-mounted, field-deployed, or temporary site configurations.
Compatibility
This antenna (part number 170907-000) is designed for the Cradlepoint W1855 Series 5G Wideband Adapter. The W1855 requires multiple antennas to achieve full MIMO operation; this unit ships individually (Qty. 1). Verify your W1855 deployment specifies the exact quantity and antenna configuration required for your signal objectives before purchase.
Installation Notes
The SMA direct-attach connector seats directly onto the W1855 adapter without intermediate connectors or adapters. Ensure the SMA connector is hand-tightened firmly to avoid signal loss from loose connections in vibration-prone environments (vehicles, trailers, rooftop mounts). The 600 MHz–6 GHz frequency range supports LTE, 5G, and mid-band cellular without tuning; no frequency selection or configuration is required. For optimal MIMO performance and signal diversity, position multiple antennas (if deploying more than one) with physical separation to reduce correlation.
