  SMD-Mounted 5.8GHz WiFi Antenna – Ultra-Compact Solution for Miniature IoT Sensors

  Solve "Space vs. Performance" for Your Compact IoT Sensors

  For IoT sensor manufacturers, the biggest challenge is fitting high-performance wireless components into ultra-small enclosures (often ≤20mm×20mm). Our SMD-Mounted 5.8GHz WiFi Antenna eliminates this tradeoff: it’s designed as a surface-mount component (no bulky connectors) to blend seamlessly with your sensor’s PCB, while delivering reliable 5.8GHz WiFi connectivity for fast, interference-free data transmission.

  Core Advantages: Built for Compact IoT Success

  Every feature is engineered to meet the unique needs of miniature sensors:

  SMD "Zero-Space" Integration: No external antennas or coaxial cables – the antenna is directly soldered onto your PCB via standard SMT (Surface Mount Technology) processes. Saves up to 40% of PCB space vs. traditional plug-in antennas, fitting even 15mm×15mm sensor boards.

  5.8GHz Band Advantage: Operates in the less congested 5.15–5.85GHz U-NII bands (avoids 2.4GHz interference from Bluetooth, Zigbee, and household devices), ensuring stable data transfer for real-time sensor data (e.g., environmental monitoring, industrial telemetry).

  Optimized Gain for Short-to-Medium Range: 3.2dBi ±0.3dBi gain balances range (up to 50m in open areas) and compact size – perfect for IoT sensors that transmit to nearby gateways or routers.

  Low Power Consumption: Matches the low-power requirements of battery-powered IoT sensors (compatible with WiFi 6/6E low-power modes), extending sensor battery life by reducing radio module workload.

  Technical Specifications: Reliable Performance in Miniature Form

  We prioritize precision to ensure consistent performance across mass production:

  Soldering CompatibilityRoHS-compliant, lead-free (matches IoT manufacturing standards)

  Perfect for These Compact IoT Sensors

  Our antenna is tailored to the most demanding miniature sensor applications:

  Wearable Health Sensors: Fits into smart wristbands, glucose monitors, or fitness trackers, enabling WiFi transmission of health data.

  Environmental Monitoring Sensors: Integrates into tiny air quality, temperature, or humidity sensors (e.g., for smart buildings/agriculture) with no space compromise.

  Industrial Mini-Sensors: Works with compact vibration, pressure, or proximity sensors in factory automation (resists dust and temperature fluctuations).

  Smart Home Micro-Sensors: Ideal for small motion detectors, door/window contacts, or smart meter modules.

  Why Manufacturers Love Integrating This Antenna

  We design for your production efficiency:

  SMT Line Compatibility: Drops directly into your existing SMT assembly process (no manual soldering required), cutting production time by 20% vs. external antennas.

  Design Flexibility: Provides Gerber files, 3D models (STEP/IGES), and placement guidelines to help your PCB team integrate the antenna in days (not weeks).

  Robust Reliability: Gold-plated pads ensure strong solder joints; the FR4 substrate resists moisture and mechanical stress (passes 1,000-hour temperature cycling tests).

  Global Compliance: FCC (Part 15.247) and CE (EN 300 328) certified – no extra regulatory testing needed to sell your sensors in North America, Europe, or Asia.

  Partner with Us for Scale & Customization
