PIS-1020

Antennas RF Overview

The PIS-1020 is a glass fiber LoRa antenna manufactured by Pi Supply, designed for operation at the 433 MHz frequency band. This component serves as a dedicated RF transmission element for wireless communication modules requiring long-range connectivity in the sub-GHz spectrum.

Antennas RF Feature Summary

• Constructed from durable glass fiber material to ensure structural integrity and environmental resistance.
• Engineered specifically for LoRa communication protocols to optimize signal propagation.
• Tuned for the 433 MHz ISM band to support regional regulatory compliance and range requirements.

Antennas RF Applications

• Long-range IoT sensor networks operating in the 433 MHz band
• LoRaWAN gateway implementations requiring external antenna solutions
• Industrial telemetry systems utilizing sub-GHz wireless data transmission

Antennas RF Procurement Notes

Verify that the target application strictly utilizes the 433 MHz frequency band, as this antenna is not suitable for other LoRa bands such as 868 MHz or 915 MHz. Confirm mechanical mounting compatibility with the specific RF module connector type before integration. Ensure the system design accounts for the antenna's radiation pattern characteristics to maintain optimal link budget performance.

Antennas RF Selection Notes

Select the PIS-1020 when a robust, fixed-mount antenna solution is required for 433 MHz LoRa applications. Consider its glass fiber construction for environments where standard plastic antennas may degrade. Evaluate the physical dimensions and gain specifications against the specific range requirements of the deployment scenario compared to alternative internal or flexible antenna options.

Antennas RF Part Context

Pi Supply offers a range of accessories for maker and industrial projects, including development boards and power management solutions. The PIS-1020 fits within their portfolio of specialized RF components, complementing other antennas like the PIS-0392 which targets different frequency bands. These products support the broader ecosystem of wireless connectivity for Raspberry Pi and Arduino-based systems.

Antennas RF Replacement Considerations

No direct public substitute part numbers are confirmed for this specific model. Alternative solutions must be evaluated based on matching the 433 MHz frequency, LoRa protocol compatibility, and similar physical form factor. Cross-reference with other Pi Supply antennas such as the PIS-0392 only if the frequency requirement differs.
