ANT-916-JJB-ST

Antennas RF Overview

The ANT-916-JJB-ST is a 915MHz ISM band whip antenna designed for through-hole mounting. It operates within a frequency range of 901MHz to 931MHz, centered at 915MHz. The component features a gain of -10.2dBi and a Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) of 2. It utilizes a solder termination style and has a maximum height of 17.60mm (0.693 inches). The antenna supports protocols including LoRa, SigFox, and sensor networks.

Antennas RF Feature Summary

• Compact quarter-wave design with an ultra-small package suitable for concealed internal or external mounting
• Omni-directional radiation pattern providing consistent signal coverage
• Through-hole feedline allows direct attachment to user PCBs without additional connectors

Antennas RF Applications

• LoRa wireless sensor networks
• SigFox IoT devices
• General ISM band applications
• Remote control and monitoring systems

Antennas RF Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'ST' confirms the straight post configuration and standard temperature rating. Confirm that the through-hole termination matches the target PCB layout. Ensure the operating environment does not require the higher thermal tolerance of the JJB-HT series if reflow soldering temperatures exceed standard limits.

Antennas RF Selection Notes

Select this model when space constraints require a low-profile antenna under 20mm in height. It is appropriate for designs where direct PCB integration via through-hole soldering is preferred over connector-based solutions. Consider the -10.2dBi gain performance relative to larger whip antennas for link budget calculations.

Antennas RF Part Context

This part belongs to the JJB Series from TE Connectivity Linx, which focuses on compact, cost-effective RF solutions. The series integrates near-monopole performance into a small diameter package. It serves as a physical variant within the broader ANT-916 family, distinguished by its specific mechanical form factor and mounting method.

Antennas RF Replacement Considerations

The ANT-916-JJB-RA offers a right-angle configuration for different board orientations. For high-temperature reflow requirements, the ANT-916-JJB-HT-T provides enhanced thermal resistance.
