SP610 Splatch® 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.

WS Series LTE Antenna

The ANT-LTE-WS-SMA is a compact dipole, blade-style antenna for LTE and cellular IoT (LTE-M, NB-IoT) applications.

The ANT-LTE-WS-SMA antenna is made of rugged ABS plastic. The antenna’s hinged, rotating, design allows for the antenna to be positioned for optimum performance and reduces the potential for damage from impact compared to a fixed whip design. The antenna attaches using an SMA plug (male pin) connector.

Features

  • Covers all common 4G/3G/2G LTE bands
  • Performance at 1710 MHz to 2200 MHz
    • VSWR: ≤ 2.0
    • Peak Gain: 5.9 dBi
    • Efficiency: 75%
  • Performance at 791 MHz to 960 MHz
    • VSWR: ≤ 1.7
    • Peak Gain: 3.4 dBi
    • Efficiency: 63%
  • Rugged ABS construction
  • Hinged design with detents for straight, 45 degree and 90 degree positioning
  • SMA plug (male pin) connector

Applications

  • Worldwide 5G/4G/3G/2G
  • Worldwide LTE, UMTS and GSM
  • Cellular IoT: LTE-M (Cat-M1) and NB-IoT
  • Internet of Things (IoT) devices
  • Smart Home networking
  • Sensing and remote monitoring
