Introduction The OMB.868.B08F21 is a fiberglass omni-directional outdoor antenna, operating in 868 MHz ISM band. The antenna has an 8dBi high peak gain, providing the largest coverage area for Low Power Radio (UNB Sigfox, LPRN, LoRA) and mesh networks. Typical applications are in IoT, metering, industrial/environmental monitoring and remote asset monitoring. Introduction The OMB.868 operates at 868MHz, one of the most widely used license free ISM bands, with a 8dBi peak gain. The omni-directional antenna collinear dipole design means it radiates uniformly in the azimuth with a high gain, providing coverage over long distances, thus minimizing the amount of cells or nodes needed in a network. Introduction The UV resistant fiberglass housing enables the OMB antenna to be weathered in all kinds of harsh environments, making it more robust and safer than traditional whip antennas. It has been designed to withstand high wind load. The integrated aluminum mounting bracket is perfect for directly mounting the antenna onto a pole or a wall. The connector is industry standard N-type female. Connector can be customized subject to MOQ. Other frequencies and gains are available. Contact Taoglas regional sales office for more details.
