The RCT 1/2-wave 2.4GHz antenna delivers outstanding
performance and orientation flexibility in a compact
physical package. The antenna’s innovative articulating
base allows it to tilt and swivel for optimum orientation.
The RCT mounts quickly via an SMA or FCC Part 15
compliant RP-SMA connector.

Antenna Test Fixture
The adjoining diagram shows the dimensions of the fixture on
which the stated pattern and gain measurements were made.
This does not mean that your product must conform to this size
or antenna orientation, although it should be recognized that the
gain, pattern, and performance may increase or decrease
accordingly. Antenna Factor recognizes that our antennas are
often used in compact applications with less than ideal ground
planes. In some cases, the reference jig is smaller than optimum,
particularly with lower-frequency antennas. This is, in part, to
more accurately reflect the performance of the antenna in typical
real-world applications.
