Antennas RF Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific part number matches the required frequency band of 2.323-2.353 GHz for your target application. Confirm that the pin-mount and adhesive tape configuration aligns with your assembly process. Ensure compliance with RoHS standards if required by your regional regulations. Cross-reference the datasheet for mechanical tolerances to ensure fit within the designated enclosure space.

Antennas RF Selection Notes

Select this antenna when a high-gain solution is required for SDARS frequencies in a compact package. Consider the pin-mount style if through-hole integration is preferred over surface mount alternatives. Evaluate the 25x25 mm footprint against available board space. Verify that the 5 dBi gain meets the link budget requirements for the intended receiver sensitivity and environmental conditions.

Antennas RF Part Context

This component belongs to Abracon's line of RF antennas specifically engineered for satellite communication bands. It serves as a specialized solution for digital audio radio services, distinguishing itself from general-purpose Wi-Fi or cellular antennas through its tuned frequency response and physical construction tailored for robust signal reception in mobile environments.

Antennas RF Replacement Considerations

No public confirmed substitute part numbers are identified in the provided documentation. Users should verify compatibility with existing designs before considering alternative vendors. Direct replacements must match the 2.323-2.353 GHz frequency range and similar physical dimensions to maintain system integrity.
