1.Introduction

The Shockwave TLS.30.1F11 is a mechanically robust, waterproof, external antenna

operating at the 433MHz ISM band with an N type male connector.

Common applications are, for example :

• mesh networks

• indoor/outdoor asset monitoring

• security systems

• remote control systems

• heavy-duty equipment/vehicle communication in harsh environments

The antenna has 51% efficiency and -1.1 dBi peak gain at ISM 433MHz on a 30x30 cm

ground plane. Stable radiation patterns over low angles provides consistent gain in the

horizontal plane, meaning that it is especially suitable for mesh networks or hot spots.

A unique indent tab on the base of the antenna allows a wrench to be used to solidly

lock the antenna on top of its mounting location, where an N type female connector

juts out from a metal panel. Waterproof O-rings around the bottom base prevent water

from leaking under the antenna.

The TLS.30 antenna is IP67 waterproof and IP69K resistant against high pressure

water jets in commercial cleaning environments, which makes the antenna ideal for

ISM 433MHz applications in harsh outdoor environments.
