CMQ23496-91NF

Antennas RF Overview

The TE Connectivity CMQ23496-91NF is a dual-band WLAN dome RF antenna designed for high-performance wireless applications. It operates across two frequency ranges: 2.3GHz to 2.7GHz and 4.9GHz to 5.95GHz, supporting 2.5GHz and 5.4GHz bands. The unit provides a gain of 6.3dBi with a maximum VSWR of 1.8 and handles up to 10W of power. It features four N-type female connectors and includes a 91mm cable length. The antenna is constructed for panel mounting, with a maximum height of 32.00mm.

Antennas RF Feature Summary

• Dual-band operation supporting 2.3–2.7GHz and 4.9–5.95GHz frequencies for versatile WLAN connectivity
• Four N-type female connectors provide multiple interface options for system integration
• Dome design facilitates discreet panel or ceiling installation in indoor environments

Antennas RF Applications

• Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) infrastructure
• Indoor distributed antenna systems (DAS)
• Enterprise Wi-Fi access points

Antennas RF Procurement Notes

Verify part status carefully as the CMQ23496-91NF is listed as obsolete or discontinued by the manufacturer. Confirm availability through authorized distributors or secondary market sources if immediate procurement is required. Ensure that the specific ordering suffix matches the required connector type and cable length specifications for your application design.

Antennas RF Selection Notes

Select this model when dual-band coverage at 2.4GHz and 5GHz is required within a compact dome form factor. The inclusion of four N-type female connectors allows for flexible cabling configurations compared to single-port alternatives. Consider the 91mm integrated cable length for routing requirements and ensure panel mounting capabilities align with the installation surface constraints.

Antennas RF Part Context

This component belongs to the CMQ series of WLAN antennas from TE Connectivity. It shares core architectural similarities with models like the CMQ23496-75RSMM and CMQ23496-91RTNM, differing primarily in connector type (N-type vs. RP-TNC) and cable length variations. The series is engineered specifically for indoor wireless network deployments requiring reliable signal propagation.

Antennas RF Replacement Considerations

The CMQ23496-75RSMM offers identical electrical performance but differs in connector style and cable length. The CMQ23496-91RTNM utilizes RP-TNC male connectors instead of N-type female. Verify mechanical compatibility and connector mating requirements before substituting these cross-model variants.
