ANT-433-CW-RCS-SMA

Antennas RF Overview

The ANT-433-CW-RCS-SMA is a quarter-wave right-angle RF antenna designed for the 433 MHz ISM band. It features a center-fed dipole configuration with an angular orientation, providing a gain of -5.6 dBi and a VSWR of 1.9. The unit operates within a frequency range of 425 to 440 MHz and includes a 50 Ohm impedance SMA male connector. Constructed as a compact module, it utilizes adhesive mounting for secure installation in space-constrained environments.

Antennas RF Feature Summary

• Compact quarter-wave design optimized for limited physical spaces
• Right-angle orientation facilitates flexible cable routing
• Adhesive mounting ensures stable attachment without drilling
• SMA male connector provides standard interface compatibility

Antennas RF Applications

• LoRaWAN network implementations
• Weightless-P protocol systems
• General ISM band communication devices
• Remote control and security applications

Antennas RF Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific application environment accommodates the -5.6 dBi gain characteristics, as this represents a lower gain compared to omnidirectional whip antennas. Confirm that the adhesive backing is suitable for the target surface material and operating temperature range. Ensure the SMA male connector matches the receiving port on the host device. Check for any regulatory compliance requirements specific to the 425-440 MHz operational bandwidth in the deployment region.

Antennas RF Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile, directional solution is required for 433 MHz operations. The right-angle form factor distinguishes it from standard vertical whips, making it ideal for integration into tight enclosures or chassis-mounted designs. Consider the trade-off between the reduced gain and the mechanical benefits of the compact, angled structure. This model is appropriate for applications where physical clearance restricts the use of larger, high-gain antennas.

Antennas RF Part Context

This antenna belongs to the CW series by TE Connectivity Linx, which focuses on compact, cost-effective solutions for sub-GHz wireless communications. The CW series typically emphasizes small footprints and ease of integration into portable or embedded devices. The specific model integrates a right-angle geometry to optimize signal directionality relative to the device housing while maintaining a minimal profile.

Antennas RF Replacement Considerations

The ANT-433-CW-RH-SMA serves as a confirmed substitute part number within the same product family, offering similar specifications and form factors.
