The GW.05.AE23 dual band Wi-Fi Hinged Rotatable Antenna is a high efficiency monopole antenna with the capacity to cover Wi-Fi 6 frequencies up to 7.125GHz. Compared to other much larger antennas on the market, it has superior wide-band high efficiency characteristics. The direct mount Fakra connector enables a more robust mating to the device compared to a SMA, the locking feature prevents the antenna coming loose due to vibration or shock. The FAKRA Connector means it is also suitable for use in conjunction with the next generation of Routers and Gateways.
The GW.05, as all monopole antennas, works best connected directly to the ground-plane of the device main PCB or to the outside of a metal housing. However, it still has very good performance (>50%) even without connecting to a ground-plane, making it the best all round small Wi-Fi terminal antenna on the market.
In the un-grounded installation condition, it also comes below the max peak gain requirements for most Wi-Fi modules which are usually 2dBi, so it can comply with FCC regulations. The GW.05 is for Wi-Fi, WLAN, Zigbee, Bluetooth, and 802.11a/b/g/n/ac applications.
This antenna is also available with a standard SMA (M) connector, the GW.05.0153.
