Description
The Reach PCS.66.A is a low-profile, small-footprint wideband antenna designed for sub-6 GHz 5G deployments while also supporting legacy cellular fallback bands. It is intended for direct onboard integration on a device PCB and is supplied in tape-and-reel format for high-volume assembly.
This design is optimized to help deliver strong over-the-air performance across a very wide operating bandwidth and can be adapted to specific device environments using an external matching network if required.
- Wideband coverage: Designed to support sub-6 GHz 5G and 4G/LTE with backward compatibility for 3G/2G operation.
- Low-profile onboard integration: Supports efficient PCB space usage with minimal additional keep-out requirement.
- Manufacturing-friendly: Supplied on tape & reel to support automated pick-and-place assembly.
- Adaptable design: Can be optimized for specific bands using a matching network depending on the device environment.
The PCS.66.A is also recommended for Non-Terrestrial Network (NTN) devices operating on Band 255 (Global), Band 256 (Europe), and Band 23 (North America).
