2118308-3 is listed in the Antennas RF range at ChipApex. The manufacturer field lists TE Connectivity AMP Connectors. Its product description is 4G WORLD BAND, METASPAN, PCB ANT. Review the specifications below when checking this part for your BOM.
The TE Connectivity AMP Connectors part number 2118308-3 is a PCB trace RF antenna designed for LTE applications. It operates across three frequency bands centered at 829MHz, 1.94GHz, and 2.5GHz. The specific frequency ranges are 698MHz ~ 960MHz, 1.71GHz ~ 2.17GHz, and 2.3GHz ~ 2.7GHz. The antenna provides a gain of 3.9dBi with a VSWR of 3. It features U.FL(UMCC) or I-PEX MHF1 connectors and utilizes adhesive installation.
Verify the exact connector type (U.FL vs I-PEX MHF1) and adhesive specifications against the official datasheet before procurement. Confirm that the component status remains active and check for any recent PCN updates regarding material changes to ensure compatibility with existing assembly processes.
Select this component when a low-profile, multi-band LTE solution is required. Ensure the host PCB layout accommodates the specific radiation pattern and ground plane requirements for the 698-960MHz, 1.71-2.17GHz, and 2.3-2.7GHz bands to achieve the specified 3.9dBi gain.
This model belongs to the METASPAN series of RF antennas from TE Connectivity. It is engineered for high-volume consumer electronics manufacturing, offering a balance between performance and size constraints typical in modern portable wireless devices.
Consult the manufacturer's cross-reference guide for verified substitutes. Generic alternatives may not match the specific impedance matching and radiation characteristics required for the defined LTE bands.
