Directional Antenna LTE Dual-Band 698~960/1710~2690MHz w/ UFL Connector & Adhesive Mount

Directional Antenna LTE Dual-Band

• Directional antenna concentrates the radiation in one direction, to maximize signal strength.
• Adhesive Mount: Supplied with a 3M strong adhesive base strong adhesive, enabling simple installation. This antenna is perfect for quick and simple installations onto surface materials such as metal, glass, wood and plastic.
• 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.
• Directional, direct connect antenna tuned to perform on 2.4GHz networks. 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.

Compatibility with wireless standards & applications:

• LTE / 4G & GSM /3G: Broadband design for 4G / LTE and 3G / GSM systems: 4G networks
• Global LTE: 2600 MHz band (2.6GHz) 
• GSM bands 824-894 and 1850.2 - 1909.8 (US and Latin America / Mexico)
• GSM is 3G wireless (Global System for Mobile Communication)
• Compatible with Helium Network miners / devices (US), as are all antennas in ourLora / Helium antennas subcategory. 
• Helium accessory items directory: antennas, cables & accessories for range-extension of Helium miners, including Bobcat miner.
• 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.
• IoT wireless & M2M: Compatible with many machine to machine communication applications, remote monitoring, and telemetry applications using LTE-m, 4G / LTE, 3G / GSM. (Compatible because it is vertically polarized).
• WiMax frequency bands 2300 MHz / 2500 MHz / 2600 MHz (2.3GHz, 2.5GHz, 2.6GHz)

This directional antenna's range of frequency band compatibility in the 698~960/1710~2690MHz frequency band range, broadband VSWR at 3.0, and impedance matching to 50 Ohm gear, makes it suitable and compliant for all the above applications. 

SPECIFICATIONS:

ROHS 3 & REACH compliant: Antenna, cable and connector are all compliant with ROHS 3 and REACH.

U.FL Connectors Characteristics and Details:

• The U.FL female has a socket. U.FL female right-angle type is the most common U.FL connector type found on U.FL cables: 95% of U.FL cables have a U.FL female right-angle connector.
• U.FL male has a pin and is the connector: Male U.FL is the gender that is the "jack" that is embedded directly on to a circuit board on devices such as BlueTooth boards, and ZigBee radios such as XBee, Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) and internal mini-PCI wireless cards (even though the gender is male, it is the jack U.FL connector. Hence the male connectors / jacks are very rigid.
• The small size of U.FL connectors has made them an excellent fit in Machine-To-Machine (M2M) and IOT (Internet of Things) wireless applications, since they take up very little space in the cramped cases of small devices, such as Bluetooth beacons.
• Gender Determination: Micro-connectors such as U.FL have gender that is counter to typical RF terminology for gender, in that "jack" is more typically synonymous with "female:" A U.FL jack on a board (PCB) is the male U.FL, and the connector that mates with the jack is the female. 
• Connecting and disconnecting U.FL connectors from the jack can be difficult to do properly without damaging the U.FL connector or jack. We offer a U.FL insertion tool to enable you to connect/insert and remove/disconnect easily, without causing any damage to the cable, connector or jack.
• U.FL connector is also known as Ultra Miniature Coax Connectors (UMCC), and enables attaching an external antenna to a U.FL jack/connector on Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs): U.FL female mates with a female HiRose/U.FL jack, also known as U.FL-LP-66 jack/connector.

U.FL Connectors' Material composition

• Male has a silver-plated phosphor bronze made shell, and a gold-plated brass made contact.
• Female: The shell and contact of Female U.FL connectors are made of phosphor bronze but are silver, and gold-plated respectively. Female U.FL connectors are the ones used in the termination of antenna cable.
• U.FL connectors are precision machined. The gold-plating enables low signal loss.
