The Alfa AOA-868-5ACM is an outdoor omnidirectional antenna designed for LoRa and HaLow applications in the 865-868 MHz frequency range. Its 5 dBi gain supports wireless links within this band, while the omnidirectional radiation pattern distributes the signal around the antenna rather than concentrating it in one direction. This makes the antenna suitable for installations where communication is required with devices positioned around the deployment point. A 50 Ω impedance provides the specified electrical matching standard, and a VSWR of no more than 2.0 defines the stated level of impedance matching across the operating range. Connection is provided through an N Male connector, allowing compatibility to be assessed directly against equipment using the corresponding antenna interface.
The AOA-868-5ACM has a compact cylindrical form measuring approximately 22 mm in diameter and 180 mm in length, making its physical clearance straightforward to consider during installation. It is specified for temperatures from -40 °C to +85 °C and humidity up to 95% at 25 °C, providing clearly defined environmental limits for outdoor deployment. The antenna weighs 43 g, keeping the assembly relatively lightweight while retaining its dedicated external antenna format. A radiation pattern at 868 MHz is also provided, illustrating the antenna's signal distribution at the operating frequency. Together, its 865-868 MHz coverage, 5 dBi gain, omnidirectional pattern, N Male interface, compact dimensions, and broad operating temperature range define the AOA-868-5ACM as a practical antenna option for compatible LoRa and HaLow equipment.
