SPE-11-8-034/D/SS Page 1 of 17 SPECIFICATION Part No. : TG.09.0113W Product Name : Penta-band Cellular Hinged SMA Male Monopole Feature : 800 MHz to 2200MHz GSM/CDMA/HSPA/UMTS Rotatable hinge design for optimal reception Top quality housing with brass hinge and connector Extended operation temperature range RoHS Compliant

SPE-11-8-034/D/SS Page 2 of 17 1. Introduction The TG.09 Penta-band Cellular Hinged Rotatable SMA antenna is a high efficiency monopole antenna. Compared to other much larger antennas on the market, it has superior wide-band high efficiency characteristics. This antenna is used by many of the leading wireless device providers in the world marketplace. The unique rotatable hinge design enables the user to rotate the antenna to the best angle for an optimal cellular signal reception. As the upper antenna element can move in any direction, it also reduces damage from impact force from any angle to the antenna, compared to traditional hinged right angle or fixed fight angle designs or straight antennas. The tiny dimensions of this antenna coupled with excellent RF performance and an aesthetic high end design feel make it the ideal cellular antenna for routers, vehicle tracking devices, telematics devices, remote monitoring systems, POS devices. The TG.09 as all monopole antennas works best connected directly to the ground-plane of the device main-board. Taoglas offers support services to characterize antenna efficiency on your individual device ground-plane. Please contact Taoglas regional support centre first if you wish to do PTCRB or network approvals with this antenna attached to your device, so we can check RF integration is correct and do a pre-test first to ensure optimized passive and active performance and a smooth and quick certification approval process. This antenna also comes in a black housing version. TG.09.0113

Electrical Property – Return Loss Return Loss measure the amount of signal energy that is reflected back to the system (the network analyzer) due to impedance mismatch between the 50ohm network analyzer and the antenna. -3dBi means half of the energy is reflected back and -10dBi means 10% of energy is reflected back to the system.

SPE-11-8-034/D/SS Page 5 of 17 4. Electrical Property – Efficiency Antenna normally behaves differently when mounting on a different environment. So we test the antenna in four different settings – a. free space b. on top of a 150 x 90mm ground plane.(A common ground plane size for electronic device) c. on the edge of a 150 x 90mm ground plane. (Another common way of mounting antenna) d. 450 x 350 ground plane. This simulates the situation of mounting TG.09 on top of a large metal object, such as a vehicle. TG.09 can be installed in 5 different angles so we present the test in different combination of angles and mounting environment. 1. free space 2. PCB size ground plane 3. mounting upright 4. metal plane

TG.09 is a monopole antenna. It works better with the present of a ground plane. The size of the ground plane does not affect the radiation efficiency much as long as it is greater than 1/4 wavelength (1/4 wavelength for 824MHz is 91mm).

SPE-11-8-034/D/SS Page 9 of 17 4.2 TG.09 - Different Rotation Angle TG.09 has 5 different lockingθ angle and is free to mount at any angle aroundψ. Different position of antenna with respect to the ground has different antenna radiation. We tested TG.09 in three common situation of antenna mounting. Different antenna mounting is marked as (ψangle--θangel ), photos are two example of the position marking.
