Ohio-based Laird Connectivity has released a sub-GHz FlexDipole antenna to support the 863 to 928MHz range, making it suitable for LoRaWan, Sigfox and proprietary RF.
The antenna measures 75.8 by 13.75 by 0.1mm, and is for developers and manufacturers looking to enhance the connectivity and efficiency of their long-range wireless products.
The mounting design uses adhesive backing, allowing for easy and flexible installation in a variety of enclosures and end products. This versatility is complemented by its ability to operate in temperatures from -40 to +85˚C.
There are two connector options: MHF1 or MHF4L. This provides the flexibility to cater to a wide range of wireless devices and applications.
“The sub-GHz FlexDipole antenna is a testament to Laird Connectivity’s commitment to innovation and quality,” said Senthooran Ragavan, senior product manager at Laird Connectivity. “We understand the evolving demands of the IoT industry, and our new antenna is designed to meet these challenges head-on, offering superior performance, versatility and reliability. It’s an essential component for anyone looking to push the boundaries of what’s possible with sub-GHz technology.”
Applications include industrial automation, smart cities, smart agriculture, smart transportation, smart environment and scada. Additionally, the MHF4L antenna is pre-certified with the company’s RM1261 and RM1262 LoRaWan modules.
