i-FlexPIFA™ Series Inverted Flexible PIFA Antennas
Overview
This industry-first inverted FlexPIFA™ (i-FlexPIFA™) antenna design (patented) delivers strong performance in challenging environments, providing you unmatched flexibility to solve your real-world antenna design challenges. Designed for rapid integration into space-constrained devices and housings, the flexible, adhesive backed antennas are available with MHF1 and MHF4L connector options.
The i-FlexPIFA series is designed with the radiating element facing outward when adhered to a plastic enclosure interior. This orientation gives more flexibility by granting different mounting options, like the underside of an enclosure. The i-FlexPIFA outperforms competitors’ solutions in these orientations, expanding the FlexPIFA family offerings.
We offer a range of i-FlexPIFA antennas including our latest, the i-FlexPIFA Mini. It brings our innovative inverted PIFA technology to even more space-constrained enclosures, offering outward-radiating 2 dBi performance at a tiny 35.9 x 11 mm footprint.
i-FlexPIFA antenna technology provides consistent performance across the 2.4GHz ISM band, always ensuring a solid and reliable connection.
- Coverage – 2.4GHz-2.48GHz Operation.
- Performance – Exceptional performance with 3.1 dBi gain and 2.5:1 VSWR, outperforming competitors’ solutions.
- Versatile – Flexible, peel-and-stick adhesive backed antenna for a variety of space-constrained IoT devices.
- Reliable – PIFA technology is easy to integrate into IoT devices and less likely to detune in proximity of metal or a human body.
- Quality – Designed and built to exacting specifications.
New Mounting Options
The i-FlexPIFA introduces new mounting options to our popular line of FlexPIFA internal antennas. The i-FlexPIFA is designed to radiate on the adhesive side, meaning OEMs can easily mount directly to the inside of the forward or top-facing part of their enclosure. The i-FlexPIFA is designed to give superior performance and reliability in this orientation and give OEMs another option for mounting wireless 2.4 GHz antennas inside their design.
