Antenna Options

These radio breakouts do not have a built-in antenna. Instead, you have three options for attaching an antenna. For

most low cost radio nodes, a wire works great. If you need to put the radio into an enclosure, soldering in uFL and

using a uFL to SMA adapter will let you attach an external antenna. You can also solder an SMA edge-mount connector

directly

Wire Antenna

A wire antenna, aka "quarter wave whip antenna" is low cost and works very well! You just have to cut the wire down

to the right length.

Cut a stranded or solid core wire the the proper length

for the module/frequency

433 MHz - 6.5 inches, or 16.5 cm

868 MHz - 3.25 inches or 8.2 cm

915 MHz - 3 inches or 7.8 cm
