DRAGINO Dual-Band 868MHz/915MHz Omni-Directional LoRaWAN Antenna

DRAGINO Dual-Band 868MHz/915MHz Omni-Directional LoRaWAN Antenna is built to cover both the 868MHz and 915MHz bands, making it suited to LoRa and LoRaWAN gateways, sensors and other sub-GHz wireless devices operating across either frequency. It has an omni-directional radiation pattern with vertical polarisation, so it doesn't need to be pointed at a specific receiver — useful in fixed installations where signal needs to be picked up from multiple directions.

The housing is a grey fibreglass rod, 200mm long (±5mm) with a 20mm diameter, finished with a PET white label. It connects via an RP-SMA male fitting, with the mating pins nickel-plated and gold-plated internally for a stable, corrosion-resistant connection over time.

How it works

• The fibreglass element resonates across the 868MHz and 915MHz bands, converting RF signal to and from the connected radio or IoT device.
• Vertical polarisation and omni-directional coverage mean it sends and receives signal evenly around its axis, rather than in one direction.
• The RP-SMA male connector allows direct attachment to gateways, sensors or RF modules fitted with a matching RP-SMA female port.

Why choose this antenna

• Covers both 868MHz and 915MHz in the one unit, useful where a device or deployment needs to work across both bands.
• Rated for a wide operating temperature range (-45°C to +85°C), so it's suited to outdoor cabinets, rooftops and other exposed installations.
• Has passed a documented set of environmental and mechanical tests (detailed below), giving some assurance of durability beyond the electrical specifications alone.

Benefits

• Straightforward RP-SMA connection — no additional adaptors needed for RP-SMA female equipment.
• Consistent, low VSWR performance across both bands (see test data below).
• RoHS compliant construction.
