FB-COMBO-LGX-3M Outdoor LTE and GPS Combination Antenna
The FB-COMBO-LGX-3M is a wall-mounted outdoor combination antenna providing one LTE connection and one GPS connection through a single, robust antenna housing.
Designed for the Victron GX LTE modem, it is also suitable for other cellular routers, modems, gateways and monitoring devices equipped with 1 × LTE and 1 × GPS antenna port.
The antenna is supplied with a stand-off wall bracket, allowing it to be installed away from cabinets, walls and other surfaces that could obstruct or weaken the signal. This makes it particularly useful when the connected equipment is installed indoors, inside a metal enclosure, plant room, vehicle or other location with poor cellular or GPS reception.
Two permanently attached 3-metre LBC100 cables provide separate connections for LTE and GPS. Both cables are terminated with SMA male connectors for connection to compatible equipment.
Its IP67-rated enclosure and operating temperature range of −40°C to +85°C make the FB-COMBO-LGX-3M suitable for demanding outdoor, industrial, marine, vehicle and off-grid installations.

Important Compatibility Information
The FB-COMBO-LGX-3M provides one LTE antenna connection and one GPS antenna connection. It is intended for devices fitted with a single cellular antenna port.
If your router or modem has 2 × LTE antenna ports and 1 × GPS port, we recommend using the appropriate 2-LTE + 1-GPS combination antenna.
Using both LTE antenna connections allows compatible devices to employ antenna diversity or 2×2 MIMO. This can improve connection stability, cellular performance and data throughput. Leaving the secondary LTE port disconnected may prevent the device from delivering its optimum performance.
Always check the number and type of antenna connections fitted to your equipment before ordering.
