ANT-916-OC-LG-SMA

Antennas RF Overview

The ANT-916-OC-LG-SMA is a whip-style RF antenna manufactured by TE Connectivity Linx Technologies, designed for operation within the 900MHz to 930MHz frequency range. It features a center frequency of 916 MHz and provides a gain of 1.2 dBi. The antenna utilizes an SMA male connector for installation and mounting. With a physical length of 193.5 mm and a width of 21.8 mm, it is engineered for remote control, monitoring, and sensing network applications.

Antennas RF Feature Summary

• Whip-style design with tilt capability for flexible orientation
• Optimized for ISM band operations including LoRa and SigFox protocols
• SMA male connector interface for secure attachment

Antennas RF Applications

• Remote Control Networks
• Monitoring Systems
• Sensing Networks
• LoRaWAN Applications
• SigFox Networks

Antennas RF Procurement Notes

Verify the specific connector type and mechanical dimensions against the official datasheet before integration. Confirm that the SMA male interface matches the host device's receptacle. Ensure the operating frequency aligns with regional regulatory requirements for ISM bands. Cross-reference the part number with manufacturer documentation to confirm current production status and availability.

Antennas RF Selection Notes

Select this model when a whip antenna with tilt functionality is required for UHF band communication. Consider the 1.2 dBi gain and 193.5 mm length for spatial constraints. Verify compatibility with LoRa, SigFox, or general ISM protocol stacks. Ensure the SMA male connection suits the system's RF front-end interface requirements.

Antennas RF Part Context

This component belongs to the ANT-916 series of RF antennas from TE Connectivity Linx. It shares the same core frequency specifications as variants like the ANT-916-CW-HWR-SMA but differs in form factor and connector type. The series targets low-power wide-area network deployments requiring reliable omnidirectional coverage in the 900MHz range.

Antennas RF Replacement Considerations

The ANT-916-OC-LG-RPS serves as a direct alternative with identical electrical performance but uses an RP-SMA male connector instead of SMA. Ensure mechanical fit and connector gender compatibility are verified when substituting.
