MM-ANT-NM-868-6DBI-RFID

Rfid Antennas Overview

The MM-ANT-NM-868-6DBI-RFID is an omnidirectional antenna manufactured by McGill Microwave Systems, designed for RFID applications within the 865 MHz to 870 MHz frequency range. It provides a gain of 6 dBi and features an N-Type Male connector with bracket mount configuration. The antenna exhibits a horizontal half-power beam width (HPBW) of 360 degrees and a vertical HPBW of 35 degrees plus or minus 1 degree, with zero tilt.

Rfid Antennas Feature Summary

• Omnidirectional radiation pattern optimized for RFID operations
• Bracket mount design with N-Type Male interface
• Tuned for EU868 frequency band

Rfid Antennas Applications

• RFID systems
• Helium Network infrastructure
• Meshtastic deployments

Rfid Antennas Procurement Notes

Verify part number accuracy against official McGill Microwave Systems documentation before procurement. Confirm that the specific suffix matches the required RFID variant specifications. Ensure compatibility with existing mounting hardware and connector types. Check RoHS compliance status if required by project standards. Validate frequency range alignment with local regulatory requirements for the 865-870 MHz band.

Rfid Antennas Selection Notes

Select this component when an omnidirectional antenna with 6 dBi gain is required for RFID or LoRa applications in the EU868 band. The N-Type Male connector suits standard coaxial cable assemblies. Consider the bracket mount style for fixed installation scenarios. Verify that the 35-degree vertical beamwidth meets coverage requirements for the intended deployment environment.

Rfid Antennas Part Context

This model belongs to McGill Microwave Systems' line of general-purpose whip antennas. It shares design characteristics with other models in the MM-ANT series, such as the MM-ANT-NM-868-4DBI-RFID, differing primarily in gain specifications. The product is categorized under RFID antennas and IoT connectivity solutions.

Rfid Antennas Replacement Considerations

The MM-ANT-NM-868-4DBI-RFID serves as a related variant with lower gain. No direct public substitute part numbers are confirmed in available documentation.
