HG2409RD-RSP

Overview

The HG2409RD-RSP is a high-performance omnidirectional rubber duck antenna designed for the 2.4 GHz ISM band, supporting IEEE 802.11b, g, and n standards. It provides 9 dBi gain with a 50-ohm impedance and utilizes an RP-SMA connector. The flexible coaxial sleeve design measures approximately 384 mm in length, enabling versatile vertical or angled mounting configurations.

Feature Summary

• Omnidirectional radiation pattern for broad coverage
• Flexible rubber duck construction for easy installation
• Tilt-and-swivel reverse-polarity SMA connector

Applications

• Wireless LAN access points
• Public wireless hotspots
• Bluetooth device connectivity

Procurement Notes

Verify that the RP-SMA connector polarity matches the receiving equipment interface to ensure proper signal transmission. Confirm the operating frequency range aligns with the specific 2.4 GHz ISM band requirements of the target application to avoid interference.

Selection Notes

Select this model when high gain is required for extended range in indoor or outdoor environments. The flexible form factor suits applications where rigid antennas are impractical. Ensure the RP-SMA interface is compatible with the host device's port type before procurement.

Part Context

This component belongs to L-Com’s HyperLink Wireless series of RF antennas. It shares design similarities with other models in the line but is distinguished by its specific 9 dBi gain rating and RP-SMA connector configuration tailored for 2.4 GHz operations.

Replacement Considerations

The HG2409RD-NM serves as a functional substitute if an N-Male connector is required instead of RP-SMA while maintaining similar performance characteristics.
