PEWAN1152

Antennas RF Overview

The Pasternack PEWAN1152 is a broadband gain horn antenna designed for wideband RF applications. It operates within a frequency range of 800 MHz to 8 GHz, with a center frequency of 4.4 GHz. The antenna provides a nominal gain of 10 dBi and maintains a voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) of 1.5. It features an N-type female connector interface, ensuring compatibility with standard coaxial systems. This component is categorized under general ISM standards and belongs to the wide band frequency group, suitable for diverse wireless infrastructure needs.

Antennas RF Feature Summary

• Broadband operational capability spanning from 800 MHz to 8 GHz
• Horn antenna design optimized for directional signal transmission
• Standard N-type female connector interface for system integration

Antennas RF Applications

• Wireless infrastructure base station links
• Distributed antenna system (DAS) components
• RF test and measurement setups requiring wideband coverage

Antennas RF Procurement Notes

Verify the specific connector gender and flange dimensions against your existing cabling infrastructure before ordering. Confirm that the 800 MHz to 8 GHz bandwidth aligns with your regulatory frequency allocations. Ensure environmental ratings meet site requirements if deployed outdoors. Cross-reference the datasheet for precise mechanical tolerances to guarantee proper mounting alignment.

Antennas RF Selection Notes

Select this model when a wide frequency span is required without switching antennas. The 10 dBi gain offers a balance between directivity and coverage area. Consider the N-type connector for robustness in high-vibration environments. Evaluate the physical size constraints, as horn antennas typically require more space than omnidirectional alternatives. Verify impedance matching with connected transmission lines.
