Antennas RF Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official distributor catalogs to ensure correct packaging options such as tape and reel or cut tape. Confirm that the active part status aligns with long-term supply requirements. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with authorized channel listings to avoid counterfeit components during procurement.

Antennas RF Selection Notes

Select this model when a low-profile 870MHz UHF solution is required for industrial or smart metering environments. The 1.67dBi gain offers a balance between size and performance for short-range applications. Ensure the PCB layout accommodates the 12.3mm length and 1.60mm height constraints for proper mechanical fit.

Antennas RF Part Context

This component belongs to the Pulse Electronics 1204 series of general-purpose RF antennas. It is specifically engineered for the UHF frequency group, providing a reliable radiation element for wireless data transmission in constrained spaces. The series supports various mounting styles tailored for modern SMT production lines.

Antennas RF Replacement Considerations

Consult official substitution guides for compatible alternatives within the same frequency band. Verify that any substitute maintains the 870MHz center frequency and 1W power rating. Check dimensional compatibility to ensure the replacement fits the existing footprint without modifying the board layout.
