Overview

The ANT-916-HETH is a compact 916 MHz helical antenna designed for through-hole mounting. It operates within the 902 MHz to 930 MHz range, providing an omnidirectional radiation pattern suitable for low-power, wide-area network applications.

Why Choose This Part

This helical antenna offers a space-saving 1/4 wave design that attaches directly to the PCB via through-hole soldering. Its omnidirectional pattern ensures consistent performance regardless of device orientation, and it supports standard reflow or hand-solder assembly processes.

Applications

LoRaWAN Connectivity
Ideal for long-range communication in LPWAN networks where a small PCB footprint is required.
Automated Meter Reading
Used in utility meters for wireless data transmission in residential and industrial environments.
Smart Home Networking
Integrates into security sensors and home automation hubs operating on the 915 MHz ISM band.
Industrial Monitoring
Provides reliable wireless links for machinery status and remote sensing equipment.

Getting Started

When integrating this antenna, ensure a proper ground plane is provided on the PCB to achieve the rated performance. Designers should place the antenna away from other metal components to avoid detuning, and follow the recommended footprint for through-hole soldering.
