Product Overview

Panorama WMM8G-7-38 MIMO 4G/5G Cellular High-Gain Antenna, Ericsson Cradlepoint Approved

When you’re building out a critical communication infrastructure, you have a lot to consider. Among the vast complications in a network, you might need to acquire and boost a distance cellular signal. Whether due to terrain, interference, or a remote location, a directional antenna may be stronger and more reliable than the antennas provided with your cellular modem. For a directional antenna has to keep up with the network, you’ll need something that is equal parts powerful and reliable. That’s why you should consider the Panorama WMM8G-7-38.

This directional antenna is designed for 4G and 5G LTE communication. It integrates high-gain MIMO antennas to signal boost to add power exactly where a network needs it. It operates in 698-960 MHz and 1710-3800 MHz bands. With a 20 W power input and 9 dBi gain, it can handle long-range signals. It is also packed with stabilization and cable management accessories that make life that much easier. Wall, benchtop, and mast mounting brackets are provided along with 5 meters of fitted low-loss, double-shielded cable with a choice of SMA or N-type connectors.

What separates this antenna from the rest of the 4G and 5G crowd is its reliability. It is rated for operation in temperatures ranging from -30 to 80°C. It also earned an IP65 ingress rating, meaning it blocks particles, such as fine dust, and withstands water jets. Few natural outdoor environments can outdo this antenna.

Configurations

WMM8G-7-38-03NJ, Directional MIMO LTE antenna with two N-Type male connectors and 0.3 meters (1-foot) cables
WMM8G-7-38-5SP, Same as above with SMA male connectors and 5-meter cables

The WMM8G-7-38-5SP and WMM8G-7-38-03NJ, covering the new 3.4 to 3.8 GHz frequency bands, replaced the popular WMM8G-7-27-5SP and WMM8G-7-27-03NJ antennas.

With hardware like this, you can put your network wherever you need it and still expect outstanding performance. That will inevitably require you to use quality hardware in all components of your systems. For that, you can work with Westward Sales. Our experts are available. When you give us a call, they’ll get to know your network so they can save you time by making the most effective recommendations from the start.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Panorama WMM8G-7-38 and what is it designed for?
The WMM8G-7-38 is a directional high-gain 2x2 MIMO panel antenna for 4G LTE and 5G NR networks. It is the two-element (2x2 MIMO) counterpart to the four-element WMM4G-6-60, designed for locations where a strong directional signal boost is needed with 2x2 MIMO support. Ideal applications include rural broadband, building-mounted CPE installs, industrial sites with poor cellular coverage, and any fixed installation where a specific cell tower needs to be targeted. It is an upgrade to the previous WMM8G-7-27 model, adding coverage for the 3.4–3.8 GHz 5G NR band.
What frequency bands does the WMM8G-7-38 cover?
The WMM8G-7-38 covers 698–960 MHz and 1710–3800 MHz. This includes low-band LTE (Bands 12, 13, 17, 28) and mid-band LTE through the 3.4–3.8 GHz 5G NR range (n77/n78). Note: this model does not extend to 6 GHz—see the WMM4G-6-60 for full sub-6 GHz 5G NR coverage. Peak gain is 9 dBi; maximum input power is 50 watts.
How is the WMM8G-7-38 mounted?
The WMM8G-7-38 includes brackets for wall mounting, mast (pole) mounting, and a desktop/window-sill stand—all hardware is included in the box. It is designed for outdoor permanent installation aimed at a target cell tower. Cable options: 5-meter (16-foot) double-shielded CS29 cables with SMA male connectors (WMM8G-7-38-5SP), or 0.3-meter (1-foot) pig-tail cables with N-type male connectors (WMM8G-7-38-03NJ) for use with lower-loss external cable runs. Antenna dimensions are 230 × 180 × 94 mm; weight is 955 g.
What is the MIMO configuration and connector options?
The WMM8G-7-38 is a 2:1 antenna with two independently fed elements providing 2x2 MIMO capability. Two connector configurations: SMA male (two connectors, 5-meter cables, model -5SP) or N-type male (two connectors, 0.3-meter cables, model -03NJ). N-type variants allow connection of low-loss LMR or Heliax cable for long runs. Impedance is 50 ohms; VSWR is less than 2:1.
Is the WMM8G-7-38 compatible with Ericsson Cradlepoint routers?
Yes. The WMM8G-7-38 is confirmed compatible with Ericsson Cradlepoint routers including the AER2200, AER1600, and CBA850 series. It is a strong choice for 2x2 MIMO Cradlepoint deployments that need directional gain to overcome weak signal conditions.
What are the environmental ratings for the WMM8G-7-38?
The WMM8G-7-38 features a UV-stable, impact-resistant white ASA radome and is IP65 rated—fully dustproof and protected against water jets. Operating temperature range is -30°C to +80°C (-22°F to +176°F). The IP65 rating (vs. IP66 on the WMM4G-6-60) means it is suitable for most outdoor environments but may not be appropriate for installations subject to sustained high-pressure water exposure.
