PCB antenna meets 5G sub 6 GHz and Wi-Fi 6 applications

It is in stock at Anglia Components.

Taoglas says the antenna provides best-in-class performance for all 5G sub 6 GHz (FR1) and Wi-Fi 6 applications, and features the widest bandwidth of any flex antenna currently on the market.

The Pylon FXUB85 covers the entire frequency spectrum from 600 MHz – 8 GHz and allows for coverage in the 3.5 GHz CBRS bands, the 1400 MHz 5G NR bands 74,75,76, and the 3.6 - 4.6 GHz Japan 5G NR bands 77,78,79.

It maintains excellent performance in all the traditional 4G LTE bands, including 4G LTE band 71 and allows for fallback to 3G/2G bands when necessary.

The antenna PCB has been designed by Taoglas to be the smallest size possible.

Measuring just 163 x 21 x 0.3mm and fitted with a self-adhesive pad on one side, the antenna can be neatly placed in the next generation of connectivity devices.

As devices become more compact, the Pylon alleviates size constraint issues, its flexible structure means it can conform to the application enclosure shape allowing it to be positioned for optimal performance.

The antenna design also allows it to perform well at a reasonable distance from a ground plane, typically 20mm, and has demonstrated ease of integration into complex end user equipment.

The Pylon FXUB85 antenna has a typical efficiency of more than 70% across both low and high frequency bands.

Designed to be mounted directly onto plastic or glass enclosures, it is an ideal choice for any device maker that desires ease of integration and needs to keep manufacturing costs down over the lifetime of a product without compromising performance.
