Paradar 868 Mhz Tuned Whip Antenna 5 dBi

The smallest in the Paradar range, the 5dBi indoor antennas are an enhanced tuned dipole design from brass tube, producing an extremely efficient response at the chosen frequency. The “old-fashioned” design is more efficient, less affected by nearby objects and interference and achieves longer range than cheaper PCB-based antennas (even though they might look the same!)

The balanced design means that the VSWR – the antenna efficiency – is typically less than 1.3 (max 1.5).

This antenna is an excellent choice for indoor applications!

• SMA male connector. Select the RP-SMA adapter option to receive a separate SMA female to RP-SMA male adapter if needed (What’s the difference?)
• Extremely low SWR; typically tests at <1.3 (guaranteed <1.5)
• Beamwidth – 360° (horizontal) / 40° (vertical), vertically polarised
• Specifically developed for Meshtastic, HNT, LoRa, FLARM and glider applications, though suitable for all uses in this band that require high sensitivity – amateur radio, CB radio, sensors and data (IoT) applications
• Extremely high sensitivity at the specified frequency, and strong noise rejection.
• Low sensitivity to nearby metallic objects
• Weight – 18g / Length – 195mm with flexible end
• Discretely laser engraved with the frequency (embossed black-on-black)
• Package includes 1x 868MHz antenna, and if selected 1x SMA-female to RP-SMA-male adapter
