Single-Band Chip Antenna λ/4 Board-Mount
Features
1. Expert Antenna Optimization for Faster Certification
STAF's RF engineers work with your design team to optimize PCB layout, ground-plane geometry, component placement, and impedance-matching networks — ensuring your device meets FCC/IC certification requirements with minimal design iterations.
Operating across the 902–928 MHz ISM band and 1.7–2 GHz LTE bands, this antenna supports LTE Cat-M1, LTE Cat-NB1 (NB-IoT), LoRa, Wi-SUN, and other Sub-GHz LPWA protocols for a wide range of IoT and M2M applications.
2. Compact Form Factor for Easy Integration
Despite its wideband coverage, this antenna measures just 35 (L) × 9 (W) × 3.2 (H) mm — 20% smaller than STAF's through-hole mount stamped metal antenna (1018-456A).
The compact footprint fits easily into space-constrained IoT and M2M enclosures where every millimeter counts.
3. Tape-and-Reel Packaging for Automated SMT Assembly
Supplied in tape-and-reel packaging, this antenna is fully compatible with standard SMT pick-and-place and reflow soldering lines.
Compared to PCB coaxial antennas that require manual cable routing and connector assembly, board-mount SMT installation dramatically reduces labor costs and increases throughput on your production line.
