ANT-8COIL17

Antennas RF Overview

The RF Solutions ANT-8COIL17 is a compact, omni-directional spring coil antenna designed for ISM band telemetry applications. It operates at a maximum frequency of 868 MHz and provides a gain of 2.5 dBi. The unit features a male connector and maintains a VSWR of less than 1.6 with a 50-ohm impedance. Constructed from phosphor bronze, it supports an operating temperature range of -30 to +65°C, ensuring reliability in space-constrained environments.

Antennas RF Feature Summary

• Compact spring coil design optimized for small space-saving applications
• Omni-directional radiation pattern for consistent signal coverage
• Robust phosphor bronze construction for durability

Antennas RF Applications

• ISM band telemetry systems
• Space-constrained wireless devices
• IoT sensor networks requiring compact antennas

Antennas RF Procurement Notes

Verify the specific connector gender and interface type required for your system integration before ordering. Confirm that the 868 MHz operational frequency aligns with local regulatory requirements for ISM bands in your deployment region. Ensure the mechanical dimensions of the spring coil fit within the designated enclosure space constraints.

Antennas RF Selection Notes

Select this model when physical size limitations prevent the use of standard whip or rod antennas. The 2.5 dBi gain offers a balance between compactness and performance for short-range telemetry. Consider the -30 to +65°C operating range if the device will be exposed to varying environmental conditions during operation.

Antennas RF Part Context

This component belongs to the RF Solutions antenna portfolio, specifically targeting ISM band applications. It serves as a specialized solution for scenarios where traditional antenna forms are impractical due to spatial restrictions, providing a reliable alternative for low-profile wireless connectivity needs.

Antennas RF Replacement Considerations

No public confirmed substitute part numbers are available in the provided documentation. Evaluate other RF Solutions compact coil models only if they match the 868 MHz frequency and 2.5 dBi gain specifications.
