Product Description

The ID Series, ½-wave center-fed Industrial Dipole

antenna is a weatherized design with industrial

and outdoor applications in mind, such as outdoor

meters, solar panel controls and other sensor

monitoring and control systems requiring a low

cost - but rugged - solution. The plastic and cable

are rated for a wide temperature range and UV

exposure for long term reliability.

Two standard cable lengths of 1m and 2m allow

the antenna to be remote mounted in a position to

achieve the best RF performance. An integrated

flange makes mounting the antenna simple.

ID Series antennas attach via a standard SMA or

Part 15 compliant RP-SMA connector. Custom

colors, cable lengths and connectors are available

for volume OEM customers.
