WPANT40012-CA

915 / 2400 MHz ISM Dual-band Wrap-Around AMI Antenna

Description / Application

This is a high performance wrap-around antenna for Electric Meters that operates in both 900 MHz and 2.4 GHz ISM Bands. It has

an industrial grade double stick tape on the back for easy installation. Standard cable is 1.32mm dia Micro Co-ax U.FL cable with

IPX / Hirose connector.

We can assist your engineers to optimize mounting positions for these antennas in your specific application and can further assist to

trouble shoot system integration issues such as TRP/TIS and FCC requirements. We specialize in developing customized Antenna

solutions. Please contact sales@worldproducts.com with your specific application requirements.
