G450BN

Antennas RF Overview

The TE Connectivity G450BN is a UHF RF whip antenna designed for the 450MHz to 470MHz frequency range, with a center frequency of 460MHz. It features a straight whip type construction with a maximum height of 8.5 inches (215.9mm). The antenna provides a gain of 2.5dB and maintains a VSWR of 1.5. It supports a maximum power of 50W and utilizes a BNC male connector for installation.

Antennas RF Feature Summary

• Straight whip design with PVC coating for flexible operation
• Optimized for UHF band applications between 450MHz and 470MHz
• Vertical polarization suitable for portable radio systems

Antennas RF Applications

• UHF walkie-talkie communication systems
• Portable two-way radio equipment
• Indoor or outdoor RF signal transmission

Antennas RF Procurement Notes

Verify the specific connector interface matches the host device requirements before integration. Confirm that the operating frequency aligns with the intended application spectrum. Ensure the mechanical dimensions fit within the designated mounting space constraints.

Antennas RF Selection Notes

Select this model when a compact 8.5-inch whip antenna is required for the 450-470MHz band. Consider the BNC male connector compatibility with existing radio interfaces. Evaluate the 2.5dB gain against system link budget requirements for adequate signal coverage.

Antennas RF Part Context

This component belongs to the G series of antennas manufactured by TE Connectivity. It is part of the broader G450 product family, which includes variants with different connectors such as the TNC male version. The series targets general UHF mobile and portable radio applications.

Antennas RF Replacement Considerations

The G450TN serves as a direct substitute offering identical electrical performance but utilizes a TNC male connector instead of BNC. Verify connector compatibility with the host equipment before swapping models.
