ANT-GSMMQB-UFL

Antennas RF Overview

The ANT-GSMMQB-UFL is a miniature square omni-directional PCB antenna manufactured by RF Solutions. It features a U.FL connector and operates across the GSM quad-band frequencies, specifically covering 850 MHz, 900 MHz, 1800 MHz, and 1900 MHz. The antenna provides a gain of 1 dBi and supports an output power of up to 10 W.

Antennas RF Feature Summary

• Compact square form factor designed for space-constrained PCB integration
• Omni-directional radiation pattern ensures consistent signal coverage
• Integrated U.FL connector facilitates direct board connection

Antennas RF Applications

• GSM mobile communication devices
• Wireless telemetry modules
• IoT sensor nodes requiring cellular connectivity

Antennas RF Procurement Notes

Verify the specific frequency band requirements against the datasheet to ensure compatibility with local network standards. Confirm that the U.FL connector polarity matches the host device interface. Check RoHS compliance status if environmental regulations apply to the final assembly.

Antennas RF Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile solution is required for GSM applications. The 1 dBi gain is suitable for short-range or internal device mounting. Ensure sufficient clearance around the antenna footprint on the PCB to maintain optimal radiation efficiency.

Antennas RF Part Context

This model belongs to the RF Solutions GSM antenna portfolio, which includes various form factors such as whip and magnetic mount types. The ANT-GSMMQB-UFL is distinct within the series due to its surface-mount PCB design and integrated U.FL interface, targeting embedded electronics rather than external vehicle or base station installations.

Antennas RF Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other RF Solutions GSM quad-band PCB antennas with U.FL connectors. Verify mechanical dimensions and impedance matching before swapping with generic alternatives.
