Antenna 900MHz 3dBi Weatherproof
Screw-Mount / "Through-hole mount" on back of antenna
Cable Length: Black version has a 1 meter cable.
The white version is by special order only, for orders of qty 100 or more. We can customize the cable-length and connector type, for large orders
Compatibility with wireless standards & applications: This omni directional antenna's range of frequency band compatibility in the 860 MHz to 960 MHz frequency band range, its low broadband VSWR, and impedance matching to 50 Ohm gear, makes it suitable and compliant for all the following applications:
- Compatible with Wi-Fi HaLow devices, as are all antennas in our Wi-Fi HaLow Antennas subdirectory
- Wi_Fi HaLow and LoRa WAN access points.
- LoRa / LoRaWAN. Wi-Fi HaLow.
- 900MHz ISM Band. Can also be made to operate on other VHF and UHF frequencies within the ISM frequency bands.
- Non Line of Sight (NLOS): 900 MHz band is best for passing through trees and forests.
- The directional beam radiates forward from the face of the antenna.
We also have a 2.4GHz version, a dual-band version (2.4 & 5GHz), a 5GHz version, and a 433MHz version.
Vandal prone environments demand tough equipment that will resist excessive force upon them. Commonly used in WiFi applications in demanding environments: Vandal prone areas, outdoors and harsh weather condition locations. Can be used with most modern day WiFi modems such as NetGear and TP-link that operate on the traditional 2.4GHz.
Compact, puck shaped antenna for 860-960MHz GSM frequency band:
- Mount on any panel or board that you can drill a hole through, such as a ceiling panel, wall or drywall.
- Easily mounts in a ceiling tile, by drilling a hold in the tile of the same diameter. Antenna has a nut and washer to mount the antenna on a ceiling mount.
- Mount on ceiling or wall panel so that the antenna faces down from the ceiling, or horizontally from the wall.
- Can be mounted securely inside or outside, with its 22mm long screw thread.
PHYSICAL SPECIFICATIONS:
| Technology: | GSM |
| Frequency: | 860-960MHz, with 910 being the mid-point/average of the range. |
| Gain: | 3 dBi |
| Polarization: | Vertical |
| Impedance: | 50 ohm |
| Style: | Puck |
| Connector: | RP-SMA |
| Cable: | LMR-100 equivalent cable, double-shielded for minimal signal loss. Rated for outdoor use and suitable for indoor use. |
| Radiation Type: | Directional: Radiates and receives signal primarily in the direction in which the antenna is pointed. This helps eliminate signal noise, which enables stronger and better signal quality in the desired direction |
TEST RESULTS for FREQUENCY RANGES:
The antenna exhibits functional performance in the approximate 860 to 960 MHz frequency range, with moderate impedance matching across the band. S11 measurements show VSWR values remaining around 2.0–2.4, with Return Loss close to −7 to −9 dB at the evaluated points, indicating acceptable power transfer with moderate reflection losses. The Smith chart reveals stable and controlled behavior, making the antenna suitable for sub-GHz wireless applications where wideband operation is prioritized over fine tuning at a single resonance point.
| Frequency range | Assessment | Rating | Compatible technologies |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0.86–0.96 GHz | Good | ★★★ | Cellular 900 MHz bands (GSM/EDGE 900), LTE Band 8, private and regional sub-GHz cellular systems, NB-IoT / LTE-M deployments near 900 MHz, UHF RFID systems (regional 860–960 MHz), industrial telemetry links, smart metering, and wideband sub-GHz IoT communication platforms. Moderate impedance matching across a wide bandwidth, with VSWR values approximately between 2.0 and 2.4 and Return Loss around −7 to −9 dB, providing acceptable power transfer with controlled reflection losses for broadband sub-GHz operation |
ROHS & REACH compliant: Antenna, cable and connector are all complaint with ROHS 3 and REACH.
