ANT-868-PML DATA SHEET
Description
Designed for permanent attachment, the PML
1/2-wave whip tilts 180 degrees and delivers
outstanding performance in a cost-effective
package. An internal counterpoise eliminates
external ground plane dependence and
maximizes performance. The antenna is attached
by placing its base through a 1/4” hole in the
product and securing it with a nut or by threading
it into a PEM-style insert. This method of
attachment is highly secure and saves the cost of
an antenna connector. The PML attaches to a
PCB or connector via 8.5” of RG-178 coax cable.
Custom lengths and terminations are available by
special order.

Polar Plot & Gain Information
A common misconception about antennas with an internal
counterpoise is that their characteristics are unaffected by
external factors. While it is true that an external ground plane is
not required for the antenna to operate correctly, the antenna’s
gain and radiation pattern will still be affected by external factors
such as the product’s housing, ground plane, and antenna
location. To avoid mis-comparison or inappropriate application,
gain and polar plots do not appear on this data sheet, but are
available upon request for most products.
