FXP524D07C001 Datasheet, PDF (2/19 Pages) Taoglas antenna solutions – Venti Wlan Mimo 2.4/5.0GHz Antenna with 4ports

1. Introduction
The FXP.524 Venti antenna is a 4-in-1 MIMO, flexible PCB monopole type antenna. The antenna
has excellent efficiency and isolation performance for dual-band WiFi 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.524 is an ideal solution for maintaining high performance while
fitting into narrow spaces such as plastic enclosures for laptops, tablets, routers, and other WiFi
applications.
The antenna has been designed in 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 antenna cables feature IPEX connectors for easy
installation.
Customized cable lengths and connector versions can be supplied. Contact a Taoglas regional
support center for more information.
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.
For example, a module manufacturer may state that the antenna must have less than 2dBi peak
gain, but you don’t need to select an embedded antenna that has a peak gain of less than 2dBi
in free-space. This will give you a less optimized solution. It is better to go for a slightly higher
free-space peak gain of 3dBi or more if available. Once that antenna gets integrated into your
