Product details
Overview
TRF1002 from Aristotle Enterprises is a 2.4 GHz external antenna with 5 dBi gain, right-angle swivel mount, and I-PEX (u.FL) connector, designed for integration with MRF24WB0MB Wi-Fi modules in embedded wireless systems.
For engineers reviewing the TRF1002 datasheet, TRF1002 mechanical dimensions, TRF1002 mounting options, or TRF1002 compatible modules, this antenna delivers certified RF performance for IEEE 802.11b/g/n, ZigBee, MiWi, and IEEE 802.15.4 applications requiring reliable 2.4 GHz connectivity in space-constrained enclosures.
Technical Context
The TRF1002 operates exclusively at 2.400–2.4835 GHz with a nominal impedance of 50 Ω and VSWR ≤ 2.0 across its band. Its right-angle swivel base enables panel-mount orientation adjustment for optimal radiation pattern alignment.
It ships with two panel sleeves (1.0 mm and 1.5 mm thickness) and terminates in an I-PEX MHF/I u.FL connector, matching the MRF24WB0MB module's RF interface. FCC and IC certification applies specifically when used with that module.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Frequency Range | 2.400–2.4835 GHz - Covers full ISM band for Wi-Fi 802.11b/g/n and IEEE 802.15.4 protocols. |
| Gain | 5 dBi - Provides +5 dB isotropic radiated power enhancement over dipole reference for improved link margin. |
| VSWR | ≤ 2.0 - Ensures ≥ 89% RF power transfer efficiency into 50 Ω system impedance. |
| Cable Length | 150 mm - Short, low-loss coaxial run minimizes insertion loss between module and antenna feed point. |
| Connector Type | I-PEX MHF/I (u.FL) - Standardized micro-coaxial interface for compact PCB-mounted Wi-Fi modules. |
| Mounting | Right-angle swivel base with dual-panel sleeves (1.0 mm / 1.5 mm) - Enables secure, adjustable panel installation without custom hardware. |

FAQ
What is the operating frequency range of the TRF1002?
The TRF1002 operates across the full 2.400–2.4835 GHz ISM band. This range supports IEEE 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi, ZigBee, MiWi, and IEEE 802.15.4 protocols. Its bandwidth and VSWR ≤ 2.0 ensure consistent performance across all channels in this band without retuning.
Does the TRF1002 require antenna matching circuitry when used with the MRF24WB0MB module?
No. The TRF1002 is FCC and IC certified for use with the MRF24WB0MB module without additional matching components. Its 50 Ω impedance, u.FL termination, and calibrated radiation pattern eliminate the need for external baluns, matching networks, or layout adjustments when paired with that specific module.
What mounting options are included with the TRF1002?
The TRF1002 includes a right-angle swivel base and two panel sleeves - one for 1.0 mm and one for 1.5 mm panel thicknesses. This allows secure, orientation-adjustable mounting on metal or plastic enclosures without drilling custom holes or sourcing third-party hardware.
What is the total length of the TRF1002 antenna assembly?
The TRF1002 measures 174 mm from the swivel base to the antenna tip, with a 150 mm coaxial cable terminating in an I-PEX u.FL connector. This compact form factor supports integration into space-limited enclosures while maintaining effective radiating element length for 2.4 GHz resonance.
Is the TRF1002 RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes. The TRF1002 meets RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU requirements and is manufactured using lead-free solder and halogen-free materials. Aristotle Enterprises provides full substance declaration documentation upon request for TRF1002 compliance verification in regulated markets.
