ANT-B13-PW-QW-UFL

Antennas RF Overview

The ANT-B13-PW-QW-UFL is a single-band LTE whip antenna designed for panel mounting. It operates within the 740MHz to 790MHz frequency range, centered at 765MHz, supporting Band 13 applications. The component features a U.FL (UMCC) connector and offers a gain of 1.7dBi with a maximum VSWR of 1.9. It handles up to 10W of power and includes a 216mm cable compatible with O-rings. The antenna has a maximum height of 98.40mm.

Antennas RF Feature Summary

• Supports LTE, NB-IoT, and UMTS protocols in cellular communication systems
• Features a straight whip design with U.FL connector interface
• Includes cable compatibility with O-ring seals for environmental protection

Antennas RF Applications

• LTE mobile devices
• NB-IoT modules
• UMTS handsets

Antennas RF Procurement Notes

Verify the specific connector type matches the system requirements, as this model utilizes a U.FL interface distinct from solder or SMA variants. Confirm that the operating frequency aligns with regional Band 13 allocations. Ensure the panel mount hole dimensions accommodate the specified physical constraints. Check RoHS compliance status against current regulatory standards before integration into final products.

Antennas RF Selection Notes

Choose this model when a low-profile panel-mount solution is required for Band 13 coverage. The U.FL connector suits compact PCB layouts where space is limited. Consider the 216mm cable length for routing flexibility within enclosures. Evaluate the 1.7dBi gain against system link budget requirements. Compare against other PW series options if different connector types or heights are needed.

Antennas RF Part Context

This part belongs to the TE Connectivity Linx PW Series, which provides single-band panel-mount antennas for LPWA and LTE applications. The series offers various heights and connector options to suit different enclosure designs. The ANT-B13 variant specifically targets North American cellular bands, ensuring compatibility with major carrier networks requiring Band 13 support.

Antennas RF Replacement Considerations

The ANT-B13-PW-QW serves as a direct substitute, differing only by using a solder termination instead of the U.FL connector. Verify that the target board layout supports the alternative connection method. Other PW series models may offer different frequencies or gains but require separate validation.
