LCSMA1014

Antennas RF Overview

The LCSMA1014 is a dual-band omnidirectional antenna manufactured by L-Com, designed for wireless communication applications. It operates in two distinct frequency ranges: 2412 to 2484 MHz and 5150 to 5825 MHz. The antenna provides a gain of 0.5 dBi in the lower band and 3.5 dBi in the upper band. It features a stamped metal construction with linear polarization and a 50 Ohm impedance. The power rating is specified at 1 W.

Antennas RF Feature Summary

• Dual-band operation supporting 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz ISM bands
• Omnidirectional radiation pattern for uniform coverage
• Stamped metal housing for durability
• Linear polarization configuration

Antennas RF Applications

• Wireless LAN systems
• Industrial, Scientific, and Medical (ISM) equipment
• General wireless communication devices

Antennas RF Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix or packaging variant required, such as LCSMA1014-50PK, which may indicate bulk packaging quantities. Confirm that the 1 W power rating aligns with system requirements. Ensure compatibility with standard SMA connectors if applicable. Check regional compliance certifications for intended deployment markets.

Antennas RF Selection Notes

Select this model when dual-band coverage across 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz frequencies is necessary. The low profile stamped design suits space-constrained installations. Consider the modest gain levels suitable for short-range or general coverage scenarios rather than long-distance point-to-point links. Verify environmental suitability for the installation location.

Antennas RF Part Context

This component belongs to L-Com's antenna portfolio, focusing on RF connectivity solutions. It serves as a passive radiating element within wireless networks. The product line emphasizes commercial and industrial wireless standards. It complements other L-Com interconnect products by providing essential signal transmission capabilities.

Antennas RF Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the dual-band frequency ranges and physical form factor. Verify equivalent gain specifications and impedance matching. Alternative models from other manufacturers require careful comparison of VSWR and connector types to ensure seamless integration without adapter usage.
