Looking for LoRA or Sigfox 868 MHz or 915 MHz antenna solutions? The following list of innovative antennas might help.

The new SigFox and LoRA networks will operate in and around the 868 MHz and 915 MHz frequency bands. For these networks to operate effectively, an intelligent selection of antennas will be required to ensure that coverage is optimised.

We have listed here some interesting antenna solutions based on 868 MHz and 915 MHz that we have been working on, please feel free to contact us at sales@ead-ltd.com if you see something you like, or something similar to your requirements, but cannot see it as a released product on the EAD website.

Terminal or Enclosure-Mount Antennas

MW868

The MW868 is an 868 MHz 1/4 wave groundplane depdendent moulded whip antenna designed for small terminals and devices. Typically fed by a SMA-Male connector.

PTF868/PTF915
The PTF868 and the PTF915 antennas are 1/2 wave 868 and 915 MHz antenna respectively. They are both captive-mount antennas meaning that they held in place by a stud at the end of the antenna secured by a nut. The antennas are fed by a micro-coax cable with SMA or U.FL/IPEX connector. Ideal for offering a solution where removal of the antenna is discouraged.

Outdoor Antennas

HGO-868-915
The HGO is an 868 MHz / 915 MHz high gain outdoor omni-directional antenna offering approximately 5 dBi. Supplied with 5M of cable as standard with a SMA-Male or RP-SMA connector, the HGO is unrivalled in terms of price/performance and ideal for areas where a high gain omni-directional antenna is required. This antenna can be wall or pole mounted.

WCO-868-WMB / WCO-915-WMB
The WCO-868-WMB/WCO-915-WMB is a compact, wall-mount omni antenna operating at 868 or 915 MHz. Designed for continuous outdoor use, the antenna is mounted on a stainless steel bracket and offers approximately 2 dBi in the target frequency bands. It can be supplied with a variety of low loss RF coaxial cable as the application requires.
