Overview

The TOXU TX-A14 is a compact 2.4GHz and 5.8GHz dual-band rubber duck WiFi antenna developed for routers, wireless access points, IoT gateways, wireless modules, smart devices, and industrial wireless terminals.

The antenna combines 2.4GHz and 5.8GHz WiFi-band support in a compact external structure. Its vertically polarized design is suitable for compatible 50Ω wireless equipment requiring an external SMA or RP-SMA antenna connection.

A rotatable antenna joint allows the antenna orientation to be adjusted according to the equipment installation position. This makes the TX-A14 suitable for desktop devices, wall-mounted terminals, industrial gateways, communication modules, and embedded equipment with an external antenna port.

SMA male, RP-SMA male, connector orientation, antenna housing, and other mechanical or RF configurations can be customized according to project requirements.

Key Features

2.4GHz and 5.8GHz Dual-Band Operation

The antenna supports compatible 2.4GHz and 5.8GHz WiFi communication systems, reducing the need to use separate antennas for the two WiFi bands.

5-7dBi Nominal Gain

The listed gain range supports wireless signal transmission and reception in compatible equipment. Actual system performance depends on frequency matching, installation position, equipment output, obstacles, and the surrounding RF environment.

Vertical Polarization

The vertically polarized antenna design is suitable for routers, gateways, wireless terminals, and other compatible equipment using the same polarization orientation.

Rotatable Antenna Structure

The adjustable antenna body can be positioned according to the installation direction of the connected device, helping support flexible product integration.

SMA and RP-SMA Connector Options

SMA male and RP-SMA male versions are available for different wireless equipment interfaces. The connector type must be confirmed before ordering because SMA and RP-SMA connectors are not electrically interchangeable despite their similar external appearance.

Compact Rubber Duck Housing

The molded external housing provides a compact antenna structure suitable for industrial and commercial wireless equipment.

OEM and ODM Configuration

TOXU can evaluate customized frequency matching, RF connector, antenna housing, dimensions, branding, packaging, and other project-specific requirements.

Technical Specifications

The exact MHz frequency range, antenna dimensions, connector configuration, and final RF performance should be confirmed according to the selected TX-A14 version and approved product specification before ordering.

Applications

• WiFi Routers

• Wireless Access Points

• Industrial IoT Gateways

• Wireless Communication Modules

• Smart-Home Devices

• Industrial Control Terminals

• Wireless Monitoring Equipment

• Embedded Wireless Devices

• 2.4GHz Bluetooth Equipment

• 2.4GHz ZigBee Equipment

Bluetooth, BLE, and ZigBee applications generally use the 2.4GHz portion of the antenna rather than the 5.8GHz band. Compatibility must be confirmed according to the connected module, RF interface, and operating frequency.

System Integration

The TX-A14 can be connected to compatible WiFi routers, wireless modules, access points, gateways, controllers, and industrial terminals using a 50Ω SMA or RP-SMA antenna interface.

The connector version must be checked carefully before ordering. SMA male and RP-SMA male connectors may look similar, but their center-contact structures are different and they cannot be selected only by the external thread appearance.

For improved wireless performance, the antenna should normally be positioned vertically and kept away from large metal surfaces, high-current circuits, power supplies, motors, shielding structures, and other strong interference sources.

Actual communication distance and signal quality depend on the radio module, output power, receiver sensitivity, antenna matching, installation orientation, equipment enclosure, obstacles, surrounding interference, and operating environment.

For customized projects, customers should provide the required operating frequency, equipment or module model, connector type, installation position, mechanical restrictions, required antenna orientation, and estimated order quantity.

Customization Support

Frequency Matching

The antenna can be evaluated and tuned according to the customer’s target WiFi bands, equipment structure, RF interface, and installation environment.

Connector Configuration

SMA male, RP-SMA male, straight, right-angle, and other suitable connector configurations can be evaluated according to the equipment interface.

Mechanical Configuration

Antenna housing, rotation structure, dimensions, color, logo, and packaging can be customized according to project requirements and order quantity.
