Folded fractal antenna streamlines indoor DAS, wideband coverage
Fractal Antenna Systems, Inc. (Waltham, MA) has launched its dBMax wideband antenna. Billed as the world’s smallest antenna of its kind, the dBMax is designed to provide full coverage of all essential telecom services, from 698 MHz to 6000 MHz, making it a suitable antenna for handling DAS, picocell, and microcell frequencies for indoor installations.
Fractal's CEO and inventor Nathan Cohen comments, “Architects and installers asked us to make something as unobtrusive as possible, without sacrificing performance. We listened, and applied our scientific expertise to make a tiny smoke detector-sized, patented, folded fractal antenna that doesn’t scream its presence. This will be a welcome addition for those who understand the need for DAS coverage, in the least possible visual signature.”
