SP610 Splatch® Antennas
Embedded LTE, LTE-M, NB-IoT Monopole Antennas
Linx Technologies’ Splatch® SP610 is a surface-mount monopole antenna for embedded LTE and cellular IoT (LTE-M and NB-IoT) applications. The SP610 specifically supports low-frequency LTE bands from 698 MHz to 960 MHz, notably the 700 MHz bands, and 1710 MHz to 2700 MHz making it an outstanding antenna for LTE and cellular low-power wide-area (LPWA) applications in North America, Europe and worldwide.
The SP610 uses a grounded-line technique to achieve outstanding performance when subject to nearby sources of interference.
It is available in tape and reel packaging and is designed for reflow-solder mounting directly to a printed circuit board for high-volume applications.
Features
- 700 MHz bands: Efficiency 61%, Peak Gain 5.1 dBi, VSWR ≤ 3.4
- Compact package (40 mm x 10 mm x 2.8 mm)
- Excellent performance with small ground plane (102 mm x 45 mm)
- Resistant to proximity effect from nearby interferers
- Direct surface-mount PCB attachment
- Reflow- or hand-solder assembly
Applications
- Cellular IoT: LTE-M (Cat-M1) and NB-IoT
- Worldwide LTE, UMTS and GSM
- Low-power, wide-area (LPWA)
- Smart Home Networking
- Sensing and remote monitoring
- Internet of Things (IoT) devices
