RF/IF And RFID - RF Antennas - ANT MFLEXPIFA DUAL 2.4/5GHZ MHF1
The World's First Flexible Pifa (patented) Dual-band Antenna Specifically Designed For Installation
On Metal Surfaces. The Flexible Pifa Design Provides For Consistent Performance Across A Broad Array
of enclosures and enables adhering the antenna to flat and curved surfaces.
Specifically tuned for direct mounting on metal surfaces.
Ability To Be Flexed In Either Concave Or Convex Directions Without Sacrificing Antenna Performance,
providing more flexibility in placement of antenna.
Small Size And Adhesive-backing Give Further Mounting Flexibility Within Your Product Design

The Mflexpifa Dual-band Antenna Is Designed To Be Attached To Metal Surfaces Encountered In
Packaging Of Wireless Communications Devices. The Nominal Attachment Surface That Is Used In Its
Design And Characterization Is A 100 Mm X 100 Mm, X.x Mm Thick, Brass Sheet. The Antenna Should Be
centered within the lateral plane of the metal sheet as shown in Figure 1.
