The WM.86 is a high efficiency (over 50%) 868 MHz flexible whip antenna with a screw mounted wall L-bracket. Peak gain, average gain/efficiency are both optimized to provide extended coverage area in the azimuth (horizontal direction), while also maintaining an omnidirectional pattern for close in reception/transmission. Typical applications include: Remote Monitoring, Connected Enterprise, and Mesh Networks.
This antenna provides high efficiency while fixed on the L-bracket. The whip is made up of a flexible inner steel core covered by TPU, so it is extremely resistant to collisions and maintaining its original shape and RF performance. The whip and the internal connection to the bracket is IP65 rated waterproof. The whip can be removed by unscrewing. The bracket allows complete concealment of the cable for a more secure integration and cleaner installation. The cable can also be routed out of the back wall of the bracket into the interior of the mounting wall for added security against vandalism. The WM.86 comes with 3 meters of extremely low loss CFD-200 cable to allow for flexibility of placement.
