Compact whip antennas are suitable for IoT devices
Linx Technologies, now part of TE Connectivity, has introduced four compact whip-style antennas designed for Sub-1GHz and low power, wide area (LPWA) applications including LoRaWAN, the IoT, remote controls, sensing and monitoring, smart home networking and ISM band applications.
The ANT-915-NUB and ANT-868-NUB variations are rugged monopole antennas with a length of less than 20mm. Each may be used with metallic and non-metallic enclosures and connects using an SMA plug (male pin) or RP-SMA plug (female socket) connector.
They are compact, convenient and a lower cost option, said Ricky Stuby, vice president of product management at Linx Technologies. These attributes make them suitable for loT devices, he added.
The NUB antennas are available now via Linx Technologies’ distributor and manufacturer representative networks.
Linx Technologies manufactures wireless components including antennas, RF connectors and cables, RF modules, and remote controls. The company is part of
TE Connectivity, which offers a broad range of connectivity and sensor solutions, proven in the harshest environments, for use in transportation, industrial applications, medical technology, energy, data communications and the home. The company has customers in approximately 140 countries.
