• Broadband performance supporting multiple 2.4 GHz wireless standards

Antennas RF Applications

• Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) devices
• Thread network nodes
• Wi-Fi enabled IoT sensors
• Zigbee mesh networking equipment

Antennas RF Procurement Notes

Verify the specific model suffix to confirm the cable length and connector type, as variations exist within the series. Ensure the application environment is compatible with the IP67 rating and magnetic mount requirements. Cross-reference the datasheet for precise VSWR and gain specifications relevant to your design. Confirm RoHS compliance status if required for regulatory adherence in your target market.

Antennas RF Selection Notes

Select this antenna when magnetic mounting is preferred over bracket or panel options. It is suitable for applications requiring a balance between omnidirectional coverage and compact form factor. Consider the 1-meter cable length for placement flexibility relative to the host device. Verify that the operating frequency aligns with the 2.35–2.6 GHz range for optimal performance in 2.4 GHz ISM band applications.

Antennas RF Part Context

This component belongs to the ANT-2.4 series of industrial dipole antennas from TE Connectivity Linx. It shares the same core antenna element and performance characteristics with variants like the ANT-2.4-ID-1000-SMA, differing primarily in the mounting mechanism. The MMG designation specifically indicates the magnetic mount feature, distinguishing it from fixed bracket installations.

Antennas RF Replacement Considerations

The ANT-2.4-ID-1000-SMA serves as a functional alternative but utilizes a bracket mount instead of a magnetic base. Ensure the mechanical mounting solution accommodates this difference. Other models in the ANT-2.4 family may offer different cable lengths or connector types; verify electrical compatibility before substitution.
