Antennas RF Procurement Notes

Verify current availability status as this component has been officially marked as obsolete or discontinued by the manufacturer. Confirm if existing stock remains available through authorized distributors before finalizing procurement plans. Ensure compatibility with existing SMA connectors on target equipment. Review technical specifications against new design requirements due to potential supply chain limitations associated with end-of-life products.

Antennas RF Selection Notes

Select this model when high-gain performance is required for dome-mounted configurations in outdoor or harsh environments. The IP67 rating makes it suitable for weather-exposed locations. Verify that the SMA male interface matches the receiving device port. Consider the 15 W power rating for appropriate signal transmission levels. Evaluate alternative models if continuous long-term supply is a critical project requirement given its discontinued status.
