Antenna 2.4GHz 2dBi Bluetooth WiFi Embedded Patch w/ RP-SMA or SMA

2.4GHz Directional Patch Antenna with connector options: RP-SMA female and SMA-female.

• Can be used for embedded product design.
• Generally used inside of a casing but can be screw-mounted as-is, in a protected mounting-spot.

PCB antenna, flat low-profile, with options for RP-SMA female and SMA female connectors. Generally used inside of a casing or enclosure, but can be screw-mounted externally, or mounted with an adhesive such as double-sided foam tape, in a spot where it will not be disturbed. [See also: Version of this antenna inside of an ABS casing with cable to RP-SMA connector].

• Directional antenna concentrates the radiation in one direction, to maximize signal strength.
• The limited beamwidth reduces "signal noise" / interference from other WiFi networks and third-party wireless devices, resulting in much greater performance of the device connected to this antenna (especially as compared to omni-directional antennas, which pickup 360-degrees of signal noise.

Compatibility with wireless standards & applications:

• IoT wireless & M2M: Bluetooth, ZigBee, and ISM. Since it is vertically polarized, it is compatible with many machine to machine communication applications, remote monitoring, and telemetry applications.
• 2.4GHz WiFi applications: 802.11N, 802.11G, 802.11B
• Linear polarized, it is suitable for many of today’s machine to machine and communication applications such as telemetry, remote monitoring and mesh networking applications.
• Directional, direct connect antenna tuned to perform on 2.4GHz networks.

Suitable and compliant for all the above applications because of this antenna's range of frequency band compatibility in the 2.4 ~ 2.5GHz frequency band range, its low broadband VSWR, and impedance matching to 50 Ohm gear.

SPECIFICATIONS:

Lead-free and ROHS compliant: The entire product is ROHS compliant (connector and antenna).RP-SMA

RP-SMA and SMA Connector Characteristics:

• RP-SMA = Reverse Polarity SMA. Also known as SMA-RP, SMA-R, SMA RP, SMA R.
• RP-SMA and SMA gender is counter-intuitive: The gender is referring to the pins inside-not the threads. RP-SMA male has threads on inside. More details regarding RP-SMA gender determination.
• RP-SMA-male and SMA is also called "plug" and the respective female connectors are also called a "jack."
• RP-SMA and SMA are round screw-type connectors, with medium-sized, threaded coupling connectors that are rated for frequencies from the lowest (DC) up to 18GHz.
• Composition
  • Connector Body: Brass, Gold Plated for low loss. Precision-machined.
  • Center Contact: Beryllium Copper, Gold Plated
  • Crimp Ferrule: Copper, Nickel Plated
  • Insulators: PTFE
• We offer an SMA wrench to assist in installing antennas, cables and adapters with SMA or RP-SMA connector(s).
• SMA-male connector fits items that have an SMA (female) jack/connector.
• Gender of SMA is counter-intuitive: Please observe picture & note it is correct.
