IINNTENNA

IINNTENNA

Crunchbase | Website | Twitter | Facebook | Linkedin

WE PROVIDE CUSTOM ANTENNA SOLUTIONS USING OUR REVOLUTIONARY IINNTENNA TECHNOLOGY; ADAPTABLE TO TRULY OPTIMIZE PERFORMANCE IN ANY ANTENNA UTILIZING DEVICE. The IINNTENNA is a next-generation antenna technology that is changing the global RF landscape and bringing telecommunications into the future.

Our chief antenna scientist, Dr. Mohamed S.

Sanad, changed the world’s telecommunications trajectory at Nokia in 1994, leading the invention of the first internally embedded mobile phone antennas. Hoping to change the problematic direction of antenna technology growing in size and weight without delivering more efficient signals, Dr.

Sanad dedicated the past 15 years to create what we now know as the IINNTENNA- a smaller, cost effective, and monumentally more efficient antenna evolution. With decades of experience, a passion for revolutionary antenna advancement, and his innate concern for humanity at large, Dr.

Sanad’s work has tackled even more problems than he initially intended to solve. This technology’s broadband, far-reaching capabilities are vast.

In base station applications it eliminates the need for multiple towers in any given area, positively impacting the global landscape, minimizing deforestation, and significantly reducing exposure to radiation from the daily use of our wireless devices. In satellites the IINNTENNA immensely decreases the size and weight of the structure while maximizing efficiency, cost, functionality, and much more.
