TRAB806-17103P

Antennas RF Overview

The TE Connectivity TRAB806-17103P is a multi-band Phantom dome RF antenna designed for vehicular and fixed station applications. It operates across seven frequency bands: 850MHz, 900MHz, 1.575GHz, 1.8GHz, 1.9GHz, 2.1GHz, and 2.4GHz. The antenna provides gains ranging from 3dBi to 5.9dBi depending on the band. It features an NMO base mount and supports maximum power of 100W. Key specifications include VSWR values of 2 and 2.5. The unit height is 2.300 inches (58.42mm). It covers AMPS, DCS, GPS, GSM, PCS, UMTS, and ISM applications.

Antennas RF Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix designation when ordering, as variations such as TRAB806-17103 exist within the same product family. Confirm that the required termination type matches the NMO base specification provided in the datasheet. Ensure compatibility with existing vehicle roof mounts before procurement. Cross-reference the exact part number against official TE Connectivity catalogs to avoid confusion with similar Phantom series antennas. Check current availability status as lead times may vary by region.

Antennas RF Selection Notes

Select this antenna when broad frequency coverage across multiple cellular and satellite bands is required for a single mounting point. The NMO base makes it ideal for vehicles equipped with standard magnetic or threaded mounts. Consider the gain requirements per band, as performance varies between 3dBi and 5.9dBi. This model suits applications needing simultaneous support for voice, data, and positioning services without requiring multiple discrete antennas.

Antennas RF Part Context

This component belongs to the Phantom® Multi-Band Vehicular Antennas series by TE Connectivity. The series focuses on compact, low-profile solutions for mobile platforms. The TRAB806-17103P variant specifically targets multi-standard mobile communications. It complements other models in the lineup that may offer different frequency combinations or mounting options like N-Type female connectors.

Antennas RF Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitute part numbers are not explicitly listed in the provided documentation. Users should consult the official TE Connectivity catalog for direct replacements. Similar models within the Phantom series may serve as alternatives if frequency coverage aligns with application needs.
