Fullband Antennas

A Cellular Antenna Brand Built for UK Networks

Fullband Antennas is a UK-based antenna brand designed to deliver cellular coverage across the full UK mobile network spectrum, from the 700MHz coverage band through the 3.4-3.6GHz 5G mid-band. The brand operates on a simple principle: standard cellular antennas often fail to deliver across the band-splitting and EIRP allocations UK mobile operators use, so Fullband products are engineered specifically for the bands UK deployments actually rely on.

The Fullband range spans high-gain outdoor MIMO panels through compact M2M pucks, vehicle-mount magnetic bases, window-mount kits, T-Bar adhesive antennas, and IP-rated dome housings for vandal-resistant installations. Stock is held in Leeds for next-day UK dispatch, with international shipping for global rollouts.

For projects where the standard catalogue doesn’t fit, Fullband works with leading antenna manufacturers to specify bespoke products tailored to specific frequency, gain, and form factor requirements. The bespoke route delivers significantly shorter lead times than starting a new antenna design from scratch, while still producing a product matched to the deployment specification.

In short: Fullband Antennas is a UK-based cellular antenna brand stocked at Millbeck. The range covers 2×2 and 4×4 MIMO outdoor antennas, dome and puck IP67 antennas with optional IP69/IK09 specialist variants, T-Bar and adhesive low-profile antennas, vehicle-mount and pole-mount form factors, and bespoke variants designed against specific deployment requirements. Frequency coverage spans 617-5925 MHz on the latest models, encompassing all UK 2G, 3G, 4G LTE, and 5G NR sub-6GHz bands. Cabling typically uses LL195 low-loss equivalent on newer products. Bespoke design support is available for projects where standard catalogue antennas don’t fit.

Comprehensive Spectrum Coverage

The Fullband name reflects a technical commitment: each product is designed to operate across the wide frequency range UK and international mobile networks deploy.

Standard frequency coverage typically spans 698-3800MHz across the cellular range, supporting all UK 2G GSM, 3G UMTS, 4G LTE, and 5G NR sub-6GHz bands. This coverage is critical in two specific UK deployment contexts: rural areas where the lower 700MHz and 800MHz frequencies provide deep building penetration where higher bands cannot reach, and urban areas where the 3.4-3.6GHz 5G mid-band provides the capacity for high-density deployments.

Extended coverage on newer products including the FB4X4MINIDOME compact 4×4 MIMO dome reaches 617-5925MHz, encompassing the lower-band 5G allocations used in North American deployments and providing forward compatibility for emerging 5GHz unlicensed and shared spectrum applications. This extended range protects long-life infrastructure deployments against future operator decisions on band repurposing.

5G NR sub-6GHz support includes the 700MHz coverage band, the 3.4-3.6GHz mid-band that is the backbone of UK 5G capacity, the 2.6GHz and 2.1GHz bands re-farmed from 4G/3G deployments, and the lower-band 5G allocations. mmWave 26GHz support is not currently in the standard Fullband range; for 26GHz applications, specialist antennas are required.

Global rollout compatibility comes from the wide frequency coverage. Products that cover 617-5925MHz support cellular network deployments across the UK, EU, North America, and most APAC markets without requiring region-specific antenna SKUs.

M2M and IoT-Optimised Performance

In M2M and IoT applications, signal stability over long unattended deployment lifetimes matters more than peak throughput. Fullband antennas are engineered specifically for the operational requirements these applications encounter.

Low-loss cabling. Standard cable choices include RG58 on cost-sensitive products and LL195 (LMR-200 equivalent) on the newer dome and puck products. Cable specification matters for cellular performance: at 5GHz frequencies, LL195 loses approximately 0.5dB per metre versus RG58’s 1dB per metre. For typical 3-5m antenna runs, low-loss cabling delivers measurably better received signal at the modem.

Pre-terminated installations. Antennas ship with pre-terminated cables and SMA male connectors as standard, reducing on-site installation time and eliminating the field termination errors that can compromise cellular performance. Custom cable lengths and alternative connectors (N-type, FAKRA, RP-SMA) available where specific deployment requirements need them.

Mounting hardware included. Standard Fullband products ship with the wall, pole, and hole-mounting accessories needed for the typical installation contexts. Vandal-resistant variants with IK09 mechanical impact ratings provide additional resilience for public-facing installations where damage risk is significant.

Stable performance across temperature and weather. UV-stable polymers (ASA on premium products, ABS on heavy-duty), corrosion-resistant materials, and IP-rated housings (IP65 standard, IP67 outdoor, IP69 specialist marine and high-pressure-wash variants) support long operational life across UK weather conditions and global deployment environments.

For deployments where signal quality directly affects operational outcomes (CCTV systems, smart metering, payment terminals, digital signage, industrial telemetry), getting the antenna selection right is where the deployment succeeds or struggles in the field.

Engineered for the UK Network Landscape

The UK mobile network landscape has specific characteristics that affect antenna performance: each operator (EE, Vodafone, O2, Three, plus the resulting VodafoneThree consolidation) deploys cellular bands with specific EIRP allocations, band-splitting between 4G and 5G usage, and frequency configurations that vary across urban and rural geography.

Band-specific tuning. Fullband products are designed to deliver consistent gain across the bands UK operators use most heavily. The 700MHz band for rural and indoor coverage. The 800MHz band for 4G coverage. The 1800MHz band for 4G capacity in dense areas. The 2.1GHz band for 4G mid-band performance. The 2.6GHz band for 4G high-band capacity. The 3.4-3.6GHz mid-band for 5G NR capacity deployments.

EIRP compliance. UK Ofcom regulations specify maximum EIRP (Effective Isotropic Radiated Power) limits per band. Fullband products operate within these regulatory constraints while delivering the gain levels their published specifications report.

Field-tested in UK deployments. Fullband products are deployed across UK installations spanning CCTV systems, smart metering, vending machines, EV chargers, digital signage, industrial telemetry, mobile broadband office installations, and rural fixed wireless access. The deployment feedback informs ongoing product specification.

Ground plane independent designs on the dome products (FB4X4MINIDOME) allow efficient performance when mounted on plastic or non-metallic surfaces without the metallic ground plane that conventional antennas require. This matters for installations on plastic enclosures, glass surfaces, and composite materials common in UK CCTV cabinets and digital signage installations.

Combining Fullband Antennas With the Connectivity Stack

Fullband antennas deliver the most value when paired with the right cellular routers, SIMs, and management architecture.

Millbeck supplies Fullband antennas alongside the rest of the connectivity stack: industrial routers and gateways from across the hardware portfolio, Millbeck IoT SIMs (UK roaming for multi-carrier resilience, global roaming for international deployments, eSIM or eUICC for long-life applications, NB-IoT and LTE-M profiles for low-power deployments), and the cabling, mounting, and enclosure considerations specific to each application. We confirm antenna and router connector compatibility, cable specifications, and grounding requirements at the design stage, and pre-test compatibility for high-stakes deployments.

For OEMs and integrators at scale, we support volume pricing, framework agreements, multi-year supply contracts, and BOM consolidation across antennas, cabling, routers, and SIMs into a single supply chain relationship. For projects requiring custom Fullband variants, we coordinate the specification, lead time agreement, and production order with the Fullband manufacturing partners.

UK Stock and Bespoke Specification Support

Fullband stock is held at Millbeck’s facility for next-day UK dispatch on the most widely deployed products. Standard catalogue items typically ship next-day; specialist variants and bespoke custom products typically deliver within a few working days depending on the specification.

For bespoke specification (custom cable lengths, alternative connectors, custom enclosure colours, specific frequency tuning, specific mechanical form factors), Millbeck coordinates with the Fullband manufacturing partners to specify the variant, agree lead times, and manage the production order against the deployment timeline. This route is significantly faster than commissioning a new antenna design from scratch, while still delivering an antenna matched to the deployment requirement.

For pre-deployment testing and signal validation, our Leeds-based technical team can advise on antenna selection, supply test units for site survey activities, and support the pre-deployment configuration that high-stakes installations require.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Is Fullband?

Fullband is a UK-based cellular antenna brand designed to deliver coverage across the full UK mobile network spectrum from 700MHz through 5G mid-band frequencies. The range covers outdoor MIMO antennas, compact dome and puck antennas, vehicle-mount and surface-mount form factors, and bespoke variants designed for specific deployment requirements. Stock is held in Leeds for next-day UK dispatch, with international shipping for global rollouts.

What Frequencies Do Fullband Antennas Cover?

Standard Fullband products typically cover 698-3800MHz across the cellular range, supporting all UK 2G, 3G, 4G LTE, and 5G NR sub-6GHz bands. Extended coverage on newer products (such as the FB4X4MINIDOME) reaches 617-5925MHz, encompassing the lower-band 5G allocations and providing forward compatibility. mmWave 26GHz applications require specialist antennas not currently in the standard Fullband range.

Are Fullband Antennas Suitable for Outdoor Installation?

Yes. The outdoor Fullband range carries IP65 (dust-tight, water jet protection) or IP67 (dust-tight, temporary immersion protection) ratings as standard. Specialist variants such as the FB4X4MINIDOME carry IP69 (high-pressure water jet protection) and IK09 (mechanical impact resistance) ratings for installations where high-pressure cleaning or vandalism risk is significant. UV-stable polymers (ASA on premium products) and corrosion-resistant materials support long operational life across UK weather conditions.

Can Fullband Antennas Be Customised?

Yes. Beyond the standard catalogue, Fullband supports bespoke specification through its manufacturing partners. Custom variants can include alternative cable lengths, different connector types (N-type, FAKRA, RP-SMA, MHF4), custom enclosure colours, specific frequency tuning, and application-specific mechanical form factors. Bespoke variant specification is significantly faster than commissioning a fully custom antenna design from scratch. Millbeck coordinates the specification process with the Fullband manufacturing partners.

What Cabling Do Fullband Antennas Use?

Standard cable choices include RG58 on cost-sensitive products and LL195 (LMR-200 equivalent low-loss cable) on the newer dome and puck products. At 5GHz frequencies, LL195 loses approximately 0.5dB per metre versus RG58’s 1dB per metre. For typical 3-5m antenna cable runs, low-loss cabling delivers measurably better received signal at the modem. All Fullband products ship pre-terminated with SMA male connectors as standard, with alternative connectors available for specific requirements.

What Is the Difference Between 2×2 and 4×4 MIMO Antennas?

A 2×2 MIMO antenna has two independent transmit and two independent receive paths, supporting 4G LTE and entry-level 5G routers with two cellular antenna ports (typically MAIN/AUX). A 4×4 MIMO antenna has four independent paths, supporting full 5G NR routers with four cellular antenna ports. For 5G NR deployments where the router supports 4×4 MIMO (such as the Proroute H685 5G), specifying a 4×4 MIMO antenna delivers significantly better throughput in good signal conditions and signal stability in difficult conditions. For 4G LTE-only deployments, 2×2 MIMO is the typical choice.
