Wi-Fi® Antenna Solutions for On-Metal Applications

Pulse flexible TWA422CC01 and SWA425A series PIFA Wi-Fi antennas for metallic surfaces create efficient connectivity in compact spaces

Image of Pulse Electronics Wi-Fi Antenna Solutions for On-Metal Applications - TWA422CC01 and SWA425A Series YAGEO Group Pulse Electronics antennas are efficient, versatile, and space-saving solutions for wireless communication needs. Innovative TWA422CC01 Wi-Fi, 2.4 GHz to 2.5 GHz and 5.15 GHz to 5.85 GHz, flexible dual-band planar inverted F antenna (PIFA) antennas and SWA425A triple-band Wi-Fi 6/6E/7, 2.4 GHz to 2.5 GHz and 5.15 GHz to 7.125 GHz, flexible PIFA antennas are specifically designed for optimal performance when mounted directly to metallic surfaces inside customer enclosures. This capability greatly assists with the integration into environments where space is at a premium.

The TWA422CC01 is a flexible dual-band PIFA antenna designed to handle Wi-Fi, Bluetooth®, and Zigbee® frequencies ranging from 2.4 GHz to 2.5 GHz and 5.15 GHz to 5.85 GHz. Its unique design allows it to be mounted directly on metallic surfaces without needing a keep-out area, a common requirement for standard FPC antennas that need free space to function efficiently. This space-saving feature makes it an ideal solution for compact enclosures.

The SWA425A triple-band PIFA antenna takes versatility to the next level. With an integrated ground plane, the SWA425A can maintain peak performance when mounted on metallic surfaces and in traditional free-space applications. This versatility, combined with its robust adhesive and flexible design, allows it to be securely attached to flat and curved surfaces alike, making it an ideal solution for a wide range of embedded antenna installations.
