Yagi-Uda antenna 890-960 MHz. N-Female Connector.
Black Yagi antenna, which is a type of directional RF (radio frequency) antenna. This antenna is also used for signal reception or transmission, but here are some distinguishing characteristics and details:
- A Directional Yagi design radiates a signal pattern in the direction in which the antenna is pointed. See the radiation pattern in the images. Directional antennas have less interference than omnidirectional antennas because they focus the signal in a single direction, thereby eliminating much of the signal noise.
- For LoRa / LoraWAN, LPWAN, ISM, Helium LongFi, GSM, ZigBee, Wi-Fi HaLow and any other wireless protocol that uses a frequency in the 850-960MHz band.
- Cellular signal boosting (LTE/4G/5G)
- WiFi networking (particularly in the 2.4 GHz or 5.8 GHz bands)
- See all 900MHz Antenna options: LoRa, Helium, LoRaWAN, GSM, and 3G options
- Data Alliance's high-quality soldered terminations of Type-N connectors with soldering provide a low-loss connection with minimal discontinuities.
- Nickel-plated brass body for enhanced corrosion resistance: Nickel plating is the most weather-resistant, corrosion-resistant metal plating.
Mount Options: See our mount options for antennas with an N-connector (Type-N connector)
Compatibility with Wireless Standards & Applications
This directional Yagi antenna supports a broad range of wireless technologies and is engineered for performance in the 824–960 MHz frequency range. Its excellent impedance matching (50 Ohms) and low VSWR (≤ 1.5) make it highly adaptable across numerous RF systems and protocols.
Compatible Wireless Standards:
- LTE / 4G and GSM / 3G
Optimized for broadband support of 4G/LTE and 3G/GSM (Global System for Mobile Communication) networks, ensuring reliable cellular connectivity. - Wi-Fi HaLow
Fully compatible with all Wi-Fi HaLow devices. This includes LoRaWAN access points that operate in sub-GHz frequency ranges. - LoRa / LoRaWAN
Supports long-range, low-power communications typical in LoRa and LoRaWAN networks for IoT and telemetry. - 900 MHz ISM Band
Operates seamlessly within the 900 MHz ISM band, with flexibility to cover other VHF and UHF frequencies in the ISM spectrum.
Ideal Applications:
- Industrial Telemetry and Wireless Control
Robust signal handling for telemetry, SCADA systems, and industrial automation. - Amateur (Ham) Radio
Well-suited for operators within the licensed 33 cm (900 MHz) amateur band. - Non-Line-of-Sight (NLOS) Environments
The 900 MHz band excels at penetrating obstacles like trees and buildings, making it optimal for forested or obstructed areas. - IoT & Machine-to-Machine (M2M) Communications
Perfect for remote monitoring, telemetry, and M2M applications that use LTE-M, 4G/LTE, or 3G/GSM technologies. Vertical polarization further enhances compatibility and signal stability in these use cases.

N-Type Female Connector: Characteristics and Specifications
- Rugged and Weatherproof Design:
Built for outdoor durability, the N-Type female connector provides a secure and weather-resistant RF connection ideal for harsh environments. - Nickel-Plated Brass Body:
Constructed with nickel-plated brass for superior corrosion resistance—nickel plating offers one of the highest levels of protection against environmental degradation. - High-Frequency Performance:
Engineered for reliable operation across a broad frequency range, our N connectors consistently perform from 900 MHz up to 12.5 GHz, ensuring stable signal integrity. - Dimensions:
- N-Female outer diameter: 0.620 inches (1.57 cm)
- N-Male inner diameter: 0.620 inches (1.57 cm)
- Note on Gendering:
The gender designation of N-Type connectors can be counterintuitive—be sure to verify the center conductor type (pin vs. sleeve) when identifying gender. - Application and Compatibility:
As the largest standard RF connector type, N-Type connectors are commonly used on large antennas, particularly in outdoor installations requiring robust mechanical and RF performance. - Standards Compliance:
Our N-Type connectors feature a threaded coupling mechanism and are fully compatible with all N-Type connectors manufactured to the MIL-C-39012 military specification, making them ideal for high-performance RF systems.
Common Applications
- Cellular signal boosting (4G/LTE/5G)
- IoT Gateways and Backhaul
- LoRa / LPWAN Systems
- WiFi Bridging (2.4 or 5.8 GHz if designed for it)
- SCADA / Telemetry / M2M Communications
This kind of antenna is typically used in professional wireless installations where directional signal strength and longer range are desired
