- YEMN926J1A: This state-of-the-art 9-in-1 5G screw mount combo antenna is at the forefront of technology. It offers superior performance for 5G networks and is designed with a screw mount for easy installation.
- YECW000N1A: This external antenna is specifically optimized for low power wide area (LPWA) networks. It provides excellent connectivity for LPWA applications and ensures reliable and efficient communication.
- YEGT000W8A: Our advanced active global satellite navigation system (GNSS) L1 and L5 antenna, ideal for precise positioning and timing. It offers enhanced accuracy and reliability for GNSS applications.
These antennas showcase cutting-edge technology and are designed to meet the demands of today's connectivity requirements.
“We’re proud to launch these three new antennas which further add to our range of 4G/5G, LPWA and GNSS antennas,” said Norbert Muhrer, President and CSO, Quectel Wireless Solutions. “Antennas are often overlooked during device development but it’s important to enable developers with antennas that can be optimized for their specific use cases and provide them with the performance they need to meet their application needs. These new antennas provide customers with even greater opportunities to optimize their solutions as they build a smarter world.”
The YEMN926J1A is a 9-in-1 5G screw mount combo antenna optimized for 5G and 4G networks. It includes a GNSS antenna and measures 167mm x 57mm. Both RoHS and REACH compliant, the combo antenna also is IP67 and IP69K rated which means it offers complete protection against ingress of dust and airborne particles as well as protection against water and liquids up to and including immersion in up to 1m of water. The IP69K rating also means the product can withstand washdown pressure of 80-100 bar in phases of 14-16 l/min at temperatures of up to 80°C.
The ultra-wide-band 5G/4G antenna box provides broad coverage from 600-6,000MHz while offering support for 3G and 2G networks as well at Cat-M and NB-IoT. The antenna is designed to work with various ground plane sizes or in free space for ease of integration with nine cable connections on the antenna as required and cable length options from 300mm to 5000mm, terminated with SMA connectors. The screw mount omnidirectional antenna is easy to install with maximized durability and is compatible with Quectel's RM520x series modules.
The YECW000N1A external antenna offers high efficiency with a low profile and is optimized for LPWA connections. With dimensions of 149.73mm x 49.91mm x 35.5mm, the antenna operates in the 450-470MHz, 700-960MHz and 1710-2690MHz frequency bands. The external 4G antenna covers the main LTE bands and is also compatible with 3G, 2G and LPWA bands.
RoHS compliant, the YECW000N1A has been carefully designed so it is minimally influenced by the internal environment of devices it is connected to. This enables it to deliver better efficiency, radiation and gain while providing optimized performance for customers’ products. A further advantage is that Quectel offers flexible installation options with custom cable lengths and connectors available.
Completing Quectel’s latest antenna introductions, the YEGT000W8A is an active GNSS L1 and L5 antenna that supports the 1164-1189MHz and 1559-1606MHz frequency bands. With dimensions of 65mm x 45mm, the GNSS antenna is RoHS and IP67 compliant.
The YEGT000W8A offers a choice of configurations to guarantee the most suitable polarization type and was specifically developed for 5G RAN timing. Quectel’s positioning products support single-band or multi-band operation modes to meet various high- precision positioning requirements of customers’ products. Customized connector types and cable lengths are provided according to customers’ requirements.
In addition to providing antennas, Quectel also provides comprehensive antenna design support which includes simulation, testing and manufacturing for custom antenna solutions to meet customers’ specific application needs. This support, allied to innovative antennas, helps enable customers to optimize device performance.

Unlocking Digital Gold’s US$700bn Opportunity19.10.2026 19:00:00 EEST | Press release
The digital gold market, worth US$45–55bn today, could unlock up to US$700bn in latent demand, according to new research from World Gold Council and Boston Consulting Group. The report points to substantial untapped appetite among retail investors, with nearly nine in ten surveyed saying they would consider digital gold under the right conditions. The US$700bn opportunity represents the report’s estimate of total latent demand that could be released if today’s barriers to adoption were removed, rather than a near-term forecast. The report’s five-year base case sees digital gold growing by around 27% a year to US$160–170bn by 2031. That could rise to US$270–280bn over the same time if more barriers fall faster. Momentum is already building as financial markets undergo a broader digital transformation, bringing tokenised investment products increasingly into the mainstream. Tokenised gold, one segment of the digital gold market alongside vaulted digital gold, has grown fivefold in value

TestGorilla Survey: Recruiters are Faster with AI, but Not More Confident They’re Finding the Right Candidates19.10.2026 16:00:00 EEST | Press release
AI made finding candidates faster for 72% of US recruiters over the last 12 months, according to TestGorilla's Recruiting in 2026 report, a survey of 1,428 US talent professionals. That speed, however, did not make them any more confident they had found the right person. In fact, of the recruiters that claim AI has made them faster, a third reported no gain in confidence at all, and 18% say their confidence in the match actually fell. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20261019723138/en/ Recruiters report gains in speed from AI but not in certainty - TestGorilla’s Recruiting in the AI era 2026 report Recruiters are making up the difference themselves, by hand. Of those recruiters, 67% now spend an hour or more manually checking a single candidate before they trust that person can do the job, and nearly 30% spend two hours or more. That is time AI sourcing was supposed to save, not divert to new, extra work. "Recrui
