ANT-2.4-FPC-SAH100M4

Antennas RF Overview

The ANT-2.4-FPC-SAH100M4 is a PCB trace dipole antenna designed for the 2.4GHz ISM band, supporting Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Zigbee, and 802.15.4 protocols. It operates within a frequency range of 2.4GHz to 2.5GHz with a center frequency of 2.45GHz. The component features a gain of 0.1dBi, a maximum power rating of 2W, and a VSWR of 1.7. It utilizes an MHF4 connector via a 100mm cable and employs adhesive mounting on a compact 12x8mm substrate.

Antennas RF Feature Summary

• Compact 12x8mm flexible printed circuit design suitable for space-constrained devices
• Integrated 100mm coaxial cable terminating in an MHF4 connector for reliable RF transmission
• Adhesive mounting mechanism ensures secure attachment to device enclosures or chassis

Antennas RF Applications

• Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) modules
• Zigbee wireless sensor networks
• Wi-Fi enabled IoT devices
• General ISM band communication equipment

Antennas RF Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'SAH' to confirm the 100mm cable length and MHF4 connector type, as variations exist within the series. Ensure compatibility with the target device's internal clearance for the 12x8mm footprint. Confirm that the adhesive backing meets the thermal and environmental requirements of the final assembly process before placing orders.

Antennas RF Selection Notes

Select this model when a low-profile, flexible antenna is required for 2.4GHz applications. The 0.1dBi gain is typical for small form factors; ensure system link budget accommodates this level. The MHF4 interface requires matching board-side connectors. Consider the 100mm lead length for routing flexibility within the product housing compared to direct-mount alternatives.

Antennas RF Part Context

This part belongs to the ANT-2.4-FPC-SAH series of flexible PCB antennas from TE Connectivity Linx. These components are engineered for integration into portable and wearable electronics where traditional rigid antennas cannot fit. The series standardizes on the 2.4GHz ISM band, providing a consistent solution for various short-range wireless standards without requiring custom antenna design.

Antennas RF Replacement Considerations

ANT-2.4-FPC-LV200M4 offers similar electrical performance but differs in cable length (200mm) and physical dimensions (45x7mm). Verify mechanical fit and connector alignment if substituting. No other identical substitutes with different cable lengths or connectors are publicly confirmed.
