2344655-1

Antennas RF Overview

The TE Connectivity 2344655-1 is a passive PCB trace antenna designed for wireless applications. It operates across triple bands with center frequencies at 2.45 GHz, 5.5 GHz, and 6.5 GHz, supporting protocols including Bluetooth, BLE, Wi-Fi (802.11), WLAN, Zigbee, and Thread. The component features an IPEX MHF connector type and utilizes adhesive mounting. Electrical specifications include a 50 Ohm impedance, peak gains ranging from 1.4 dBi to 5.9 dBi, and VSWR values of 2.7:1 or 1.8:1 depending on the band. It has a power rating of 10 W and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Antennas RF Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix number (e.g., -1, -3, -4) as it determines cable length and exact gain/VSWR performance. Confirm that the IPEX MHF connector interface matches your system's RF port. Ensure the adhesive mounting method is suitable for the target enclosure material and surface preparation requirements.

Antennas RF Selection Notes

Select this model when a low-profile, omnidirectional antenna is required for multi-protocol wireless connectivity. Consider the specific gain and VSWR variations across the three bands to ensure compliance with link budget calculations. Verify that the operating temperature range meets the environmental conditions of the final application.

Antennas RF Part Context

This component belongs to the TE Connectivity 2344655 series of PCB antennas. The series includes variants such as 2344655-3 and 2344655-4, which differ primarily in cable length and potentially specific electrical characteristics while maintaining the same core triple-band functionality and connector interface.

Antennas RF Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes are not explicitly listed in public documentation. Evaluate other TE Connectivity triple-band PCB antennas with matching IPEX MHF interfaces and similar physical dimensions for potential integration.
