The RA150-IPX from RangeAnt is an IoT Antenna that operates from 700 to 3000 MHz. It has an omnidirectional radiation pattern and provides a peak gain of 3 dBi. This antenna has an efficiency of more than 90% and a VSWR of less than 2:1 across the bands. The high efficiency of the antenna delivers a greater range for the available transmitter power and improved receiver performance. Alternatively, where reducing energy consumption is a priority, such as in IoT applications, lower transmitter power can be used for a given link range. It is suitable for applications such as Bluetooth, Zigbee, Sub-GHz, LPWAN (LoRa, Sigfox, Weightless), Wi-Fi, and cellular (2G, 3G, 4G/LTE, and NB-IoT) wireless protocols, and GPS/GNSS reception.
The RA150-IPX is based on a unique and patent-pending technology, providing market-leading performance. It enables wireless module manufacturers and OEMs to build products for global markets while minimizing their design effort and inventory by only using one type of antenna. The antenna has a unique design which enables them to operate independently of a separate ground plane to achieve full performance. This can reduce both the size and number of other components in the system, thus simplifying the system design of the final product. It is available in a package that measures 150 x 37 mm with UFL/IPX connector on PCB.
