Antenna Pulls In 2.45 GHz

Jan. 5, 2011

The PN series of panel-mount antennas from Antenna Factor include model ANT-2.4-PN-SM-01-N for use from 2400 to 2483 MHz. The 50-Ω antenna works with vertical polarization and handles as much as 100 W power using a Type N connector. It provides 16 dBi gain and has a 23-deg. horizontal beamwidth and 23-deg. vertical beamwidth. The VSWR is typically less than or equal to 1.50:1 at the center of the band. It measures 12.01 x 12.01 x 0.79 in. and is fully weatherized for indoor or outdoor applications. It can withstand wind velocities to 75 mph.
