Fractus Antennas specializes in enabling effective mobile communications. Using Fractus technology, we
design and manufacture optimized antennas to make your wireless devices more competitive. Our mission is
to help our clients develop innovative products and accelerate their time to market through our expertise in
antenna design, testing and manufacturing.
The Dual-band Reach XtendTM 802.11 a/b/g/n
WLAN Chip Antenna is engineered specifically for
Cardbus32 devices operating at 2.4 GHz and 5
GHz.
Dual-band Reach XtendTM lets you achieve high
performance at a low cost. Dual-band Reach
XtendTM antenna is built on glass epoxy substrate.
Taking advantage of both spatial and polarization
diversity, it will increase the reliability of your
device’s data rate. This combined with high
isolation, makes it ideal for use within indoor (highly
scattered) environments while navigating through
inconsistent hotspot infrastructures.
Product Benefits
High efficiency
Increases your device range, signal quality and
lengthens battery life.
Omnidirectional pattern
Optimizes device usage due to a uniform
radiation pattern.
Multiband behavior
Includes both ISM bands in a single structure.
Worldwide functionality
Enables devices to work in all WLAN systems:
Europe /US/Asia.
Small form factor
Integrates into space limited areas easily and
efficiently.
