FXP523.A.07.A.001 Datasheet, PDF (2/18 Pages) Taoglas antenna solutions – 3M Adhesive tape for easy mounting

1. Introduction
The unique FXP.523 Venti antenna is a 3-in-1 MIMO, embedded flexible monopole type antenna
for high speed 802.11ac WiFi dual-band applications.
It has over 40% efficiency in the 2.4GHz bands, and over 50% in the 5GHz bands. Featuring a
low profile height of only 0.15mm, the FXP.523 is an ideal solution for
- Gateways
- Routers
- Applications Points
Great care has been taken to have high isolation (at least 15dB) between the three elements to
ensure optimal MIMO system throughput. The antenna has been designed on a flexible material
with a rectangular form-factor and cable connection for an easy installation. The antenna comes
with double-sided 3M tape for easy and robust "peel and stick" mounting. The FXP523 cables
terminate with IPEX (u.fl) connectors for easy installation.
*If needed in order to comply with peak gain restrictions with certain wireless modules, the
antenna peak gain can be reduced by simply using longer cable, or when tested in the actual
device environment.
Many module manufacturers specify peak gain limits for any antennas that are to be connected
to that module. Those peak gain limits are based on free-space conditions. In practice, the peak
gain of an antenna tested in free-space can degrade by at least 1 or 2dBi when put inside a
device. So ideally you should go for a slightly higher peak gain antenna than mentioned on the
module specification to compensate for this effect, giving you better performance.
Upon testing of any of our antennas with your device and a selection of appropriate layout,
integration technique, or cable, Taoglas can make sure any of our antennas’ peak gain will be
below the peak gain limits. Taoglas can then issue a specification and/or report for the selected
antenna in your device that will clearly show it complying with the peak gain limits, so you can
be assured you are meeting regulatory requirements for that module.
