JCW401

Antennas RF Overview

The JCW401 is a Wi-Fi whip antenna manufactured by JC Antenna, designed for the 2.4GHz ISM band. It operates within a frequency range of 2.4GHz to 2.483GHz with a center frequency of 2.441GHz. The component provides a gain of 2dBi and maintains a VSWR of 2. It features an RP-SMA male connector for installation. The physical dimensions include a maximum height of 53.70mm (2.114 inches). This linearly polarized antenna is suitable for wireless networking applications requiring reliable RF transmission.

Antennas RF Feature Summary

• Straight whip design optimized for Wi-Fi frequency bands
• Integrated RP-SMA male connector for direct mounting
• Linear polarization for consistent signal performance

Antennas RF Applications

• Wi-Fi access points
• Wireless routers
• IoT network devices

Antennas RF Procurement Notes

Verify that the RP-SMA male connector matches the host device interface requirements. Confirm the operating frequency aligns with local regulatory standards for the 2.4GHz band. Ensure mechanical clearance accommodates the specified maximum height of 53.70mm during integration.

Antennas RF Selection Notes

Select this model when a compact, straight whip form factor is required for internal or external Wi-Fi installations. The 2dBi gain offers standard coverage without excessive size. Verify compatibility with RP-SMA interfaces rather than standard SMA connectors due to the gender difference.

Antennas RF Part Context
