EXR450TN

Antennas RF Overview

The TE Connectivity EXR450TN is a UHF band whip antenna designed for RF applications within the 450MHz to 470MHz frequency range. Centered at 460MHz, this tilt-type antenna features a TNC male connector for secure installation. It supports a maximum power handling capacity of 50 W and maintains a Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) of 1.5. The unit has a maximum height of 6.950 inches (176.53mm).

Antennas RF Feature Summary

• Tilt-style whip design optimized for directional signal transmission in the UHF spectrum.
• Equipped with a TNC male connector interface for reliable mechanical and electrical attachment.
• Capable of handling up to 50 W of power while maintaining a VSWR of 1.5.

Antennas RF Applications

• UHF radio communication systems operating between 450MHz and 470MHz.
• Mobile or base station RF installations requiring tilt antenna configurations.
• Industrial telemetry and data link applications utilizing the specified frequency band.

Antennas RF Procurement Notes

Verify that the required connector type matches the system interface, specifically confirming the need for a TNC male connection rather than alternative options like BNC. Ensure the operational environment accommodates the physical dimensions, particularly the maximum height of 6.950 inches. Confirm compliance with RoHS standards if environmental regulations apply to the deployment location. Cross-reference the specific frequency requirements against the 450MHz to 470MHz range to guarantee optimal performance.

Antennas RF Selection Notes

Select the EXR450TN when a TNC male interface is mandatory for the target application. Consider this model over variants with different connectors, such as the EXR450BN which utilizes a BNC male connector, if the existing hardware requires TNC compatibility. Evaluate the physical space constraints due to the 176.53mm height. Verify that the 50 W power rating aligns with the transmitter output specifications to ensure safe operation without exceeding component limits.

Antennas RF Part Context

This component belongs to the EXR series of RF antennas manufactured by TE Connectivity. It shares the same core electrical specifications and physical form factor as the EXR450BN, differing primarily in the connector interface. Both models serve the same 450MHz to 470MHz frequency band and are designed for similar UHF applications.

Antennas RF Replacement Considerations

The EXR450BN is a confirmed substitute part number offering identical electrical performance but featuring a BNC male connector instead of TNC. Ensure the mating hardware supports the BNC interface before selecting this alternative. No other direct substitutes are documented in the provided data.
