ARM52212DM

Antennas RF Overview

The ARM52212DM is a multi-band RF antenna module from the Armadillo series by Pulse Electronics, designed for rugged outdoor applications. It supports frequencies at 829MHz, 1.582GHz, 2.2GHz, 2.45GHz, and 5.537GHz, covering ranges of 698-960MHz, 1.559-1.606GHz, 1.71-2.69GHz, 2.4-2.5GHz, and 5.15-5.925GHz. The unit features gains of 4.9dBi, 5.3dBi, 4.6dBi, and 6.6dBi with VSWR values of 2 and 2.5. It includes an integrated LNA and a 5.18m cable terminated with three SMA male connectors and one RP-SMA male connector. The panel-mount design measures 45.00mm in height and carries an IP67 rating.

Antennas RF Feature Summary

• Integrated Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) for signal enhancement
• IP67 rated enclosure for weatherproof durability
• Multi-connector output configuration with pre-attached cable

Antennas RF Applications

• GPS navigation systems
• LTE cellular communications
• Wi-Fi networking infrastructure

Antennas RF Procurement Notes

Verify the specific connector configuration against project requirements, as this model includes both SMA and RP-SMA male terminations. Confirm that the integrated LNA power supply aligns with the system's voltage and current capabilities. Ensure the 5.18m cable length fits the installation constraints. Cross-reference the IP67 rating with environmental exposure levels to confirm adequate protection for the deployment site.

Antennas RF Selection Notes

Select this model when a single-panel solution is required to support multiple wireless standards including GPS, LTE, and Wi-Fi simultaneously. The integrated LNA makes it suitable for long-distance or high-loss cable runs where signal amplification is necessary. The panel-mount form factor is ideal for fixed installations requiring robust physical protection and standardized connectivity options without custom cabling.

Antennas RF Part Context

This component belongs to the Armadillo series of rugged outdoor antennas manufactured by Pulse Electronics. The series is characterized by high durability and multi-band capability, often utilizing magnetic or adhesive mounting options in other variants. The ARM52212DM specifically represents a panel-mounted variant with extended cabling and active amplification, distinguishing it from passive or shorter-cable models within the same product family.

Antennas RF Replacement Considerations

The ARM42112DM is a documented substitute part number within the same product line. Both units share similar frequency coverage and application targets. Verify if the specific connector types and cable lengths match the existing infrastructure before substitution.
