Series of Wi-Fi 6/6E/7 right-angle whip antennas launched

The new CW-RCS series Wi-Fi 6/6E/7 compact, right-angle whip antennas from Linx Technologies, now a part of TE Connectivity, offer customers the ability to use the CW-RCS profile antenna for Wi-Fi 6/Wi-Fi 6E/Wi-Fi 7 applications in the 2.4GHz, 5GHz and 6GHz bands.

"This new product offering adds a compact, reduced-height whip style antenna to our expanding portfolio of Wi-Fi antenna products," said Ganesh Srinivasan, TE vice president of business development and marketing. "This enables customers to use this popular low-profile antenna form factor in Wi-Fi applications."

The antenna is a compact, lower-height monopole whip antenna with a length of just 54mm that can be employed with metallic and non-metallic enclosures. The right-angle rotating design of the antenna provides for the antenna to be positioned for optimum performance.

The antennas connect through an SMA plug (male pin) or RP-SMA plug (female socket) connector.
