868/915MHz Flexible ISM Band Antenna

This antenna is perfect for use together with our iLabs LoRa and SubGHz Challenger boards (or any other LoRa/SubGHz devices with a U.FL connector)

It's a 43.5x20mm flex PCB antenna with double-sided tape on the backside making it perfect for mounting inside of an enclosure. It has been designed specifically to be attached to a plastic wall of around 1.5-2.0mm thickness. In the open air, it does not perform as well as when it has been mounted properly.

The antenna cable is a 110mm long, 1.13mm OD 50ohm coaxial cable that is soldered onto the antenna. The other end of the cable is terminated with a 50ohm IPEX connector that attaches directly to our LoRa and SubGHz Challenger boards.

The back of the antenna is lined with a 3M (300LSE) double-sided adhesive which makes it super easy to attach the antenna to the inside of your product enclosure.
