ANT-315-CW-RCS

Antennas RF Overview

The ANT-315-CW-RCS is a compact, right-angle whip antenna manufactured by TE Connectivity Linx. Designed for indoor applications, it operates within the 304 MHz to 325 MHz frequency range with a center frequency of 315 MHz. The component features an RP-SMA male connector for secure attachment and exhibits a voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) of 2. It provides 0 dBi gain and is suitable for ISM band usage.

Antennas RF Feature Summary

• Compact right-angle whip design optimized for space-constrained indoor installations
• Integrated RP-SMA male connector for reliable interface connection
• Optimized performance within the 304 MHz to 325 MHz frequency spectrum

Antennas RF Applications

• Alarm systems
• ISM band operations
• Remote control devices
• Security systems

Antennas RF Procurement Notes

Verify the specific connector type and orientation against system requirements before procurement. Confirm that the RP-SMA male interface matches the host device's jack. Ensure the operating frequency aligns with local regulatory standards for ISM bands. Check current availability status as supply conditions may vary.

Antennas RF Selection Notes

Select this model when a low-profile, right-angle form factor is required for 315 MHz applications. It serves as a direct alternative to linear whip antennas where spatial constraints prevent vertical mounting. Consider the VSWR characteristics for impedance matching needs in the circuit design.

Antennas RF Part Context

This antenna belongs to the CW-RCS series from Linx Technologies, which specializes in compact RF solutions. The series includes variants for different frequencies and connector types, catering to diverse wireless communication needs in consumer and industrial electronics.

Antennas RF Replacement Considerations

The ANT-315-CW-HW-SMA is a related variant but utilizes a straight SMA male connector rather than the right-angle RP-SMA configuration found in the ANT-315-CW-RCS. Verify mechanical fit and connector gender compatibility when considering substitutes.
