Antennas RF Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix '-050' to confirm the 50mm cable length variant against the datasheet. Ensure the MHF1 connector interface matches the host PCB footprint. Confirm RoHS3 compliance requirements are met for the target assembly process.

Antennas RF Selection Notes

Select this model for compact embedded designs requiring simultaneous multi-band support. The adhesive mounting reduces profile height compared to rigid alternatives. Verify that the required gain levels align with system link budget calculations for the intended deployment environment.

Antennas RF Part Context

This part belongs to the AC10256 series by The Antenna Company, which provides high-efficiency FPC solutions for modern wireless protocols. The series supports various cable lengths and connector options to accommodate different form factors in consumer electronics and IoT hardware.

Antennas RF Replacement Considerations

AC10256-100 offers identical RF performance but utilizes a 100mm cable length instead of 50mm. Other variants in the AC10256 family may differ only in cable length or connector type while maintaining the same tri-band specifications.
