Alpha 8

The Alpha 8 has been tuned for 2.4 GHz use, with additional support for 868 MHz for LoRa applications in Europe. This antenna also covers the Key 4G LTE, NB-IoT and Cat M bands.
The dipole PCB of the Alpha 8 is encased and heat sealed to protect against moisture ingress and is versatile enough to fit in many environments.

Supplied with various cable lengths and connector options, it is a reliable design which is already field proven, making it ideal for today’s telemetry applications which demand effective performance at a competitive price.

Alternative cable lengths and connector types can be specified for volume orders.

Spectral Frequency Diagram

The Spectral View Diagram visually describes the performance of the antenna from 400 MHz to 6000 MHz. Key frequencies are marked highlighting the technology used and the colour represents the performance at that frequency taking in to consideration the VSWR and radiated efficiency of the antenna.

Green is considered a suitable band, amber is adequate in good signal conditions and red is likely to be unsuitable.
