Dual-Band 2x2 MIMO Wi-Fi Antenna for Mining and Tunnel Applications

The HELI-40 expands POYNTING’s HELI antenna range, offering a dual-band 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz Wi-Fi antenna designed for bi-directional radiation, making it ideal for mining and tunnel deployments. Engineered specifically for vehicle and equipment mounting, the HELI-40 ensures seamless telemetry and mining automation within underground environments. The circular polarization enhances signal propagation around bends, ensuring improved link stability and reliability in non-line-of-sight (NLOS) conditions.

Dual-Band Wi-Fi Coverage: Supports 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz Wi-Fi bands, ensuring reliable connectivity in mining and tunnel environments.
Bi-Directional Radiation Pattern: Provides coverage in both directions, enhancing Wi-Fi performance in confined tunnel spaces.
2×2 MIMO Capability: Enhances data throughput and signal reliability for advanced mining communication systems.
Optimized for MIMO Deployments: Available in Left-Hand Circular (LHC) and Right-Hand Circular (RHC) polarization for improved decorrelation.
Non-Line-of-Sight (NLOS) Propagation: Circular polarization enables signal transmission around tunnel bends, minimizing interference from mining equipment.
Vehicle & Equipment Mounting: Designed for rugged deployment on mobile machinery, improving telemetry and automation in mining operations.

The HELI-40 is a high-performance Wi-Fi antenna designed to deliver reliable, stable, and interference-free connectivity in challenging underground environments, making it an ideal solution for mining, tunneling, and industrial applications.
