RPSMA Male, 433MHz, 15 MHz, Antenna

The RAH Series utilizes a helical element to greatly reduce the physical length of the antenna housing. They are ideal for products requiring an ultra-compact aesthetically pleasing antenna in a right angle form factor. Despite their tiny size they are ruggedly constructed and able to withstand punishing environments. Quarter-wave or monopole antennas require an associated ground plane counterpoise for proper operation. The size and location of the ground plane relative to the antenna will affect the overall performance of the antenna in the final design. When used in conjunction with a ground plane smaller than that used to tune the antenna the center frequency typically will shift higher in frequency and the bandwidth will decrease. The proximity of other circuit elements and packaging near the antenna will also affect the final performance.
