Laird Technologies has released its Revie Prime internal pentaband PCB antenna. The antenna features multi-band operation in the 824 to 960MHz and 1710 to 2170MHz bands with antenna gains of 2.2dBi at 900MHz and 3.8dBi at 2000MHz, along with linear vertical polarisation. The combination of multiple frequency bands, vertical polarisation, and omnidirectional pattern enables the antenna to support many wireless applications. The small size makes it suitable for use in environments where wide angle coverage is necessary for successful wireless deployment. The antenna can be hidden almost anywhere by directly mounting it to the inside of non-metallic device housings. This makes it suitable for applications including wireless terminals, point of sale, machine-to-machine, meter reading, long term evolution, and telemetry. The antenna is RoHS-compliant and available with cable and configuration options.
