Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The Phoenix Contact 2701186 qualifies as a direct substitute for the 2701348 based on the following critical parameters:

Matching Parameters:

• Antenna type: Panel configuration
• Termination: N Type Female connector
• Mounting: Chassis mount orientation
• Gain: 9dBi (identical performance specification)
• Ingress protection: IP67 rating
• Physical height: 3.976" (101.00mm)
• Manufacturer: Phoenix Contact

Extended Capability: The 2701186 operates across dual frequency bands (2.4GHz ~ 2.5GHz and 5.15GHz ~ 5.875GHz), encompassing the complete 5GHz operating range of the 2701348. This dual-band design maintains full compatibility with 5GHz-only applications while providing additional 2.4GHz band support for multi-band system designs.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Phoenix Contact 2701186 is the appropriate substitute for the obsolete 2701348 in applications requiring 5GHz RF antenna functionality. The substitute maintains identical mechanical and electrical specifications for the 5GHz operating band while offering active product status and current compliance certifications (ROHS3 and REACH).

For systems currently deployed with the 2701348, the 2701186 provides direct replacement capability without modification to mounting hardware, connector interfaces, or RF circuit design. The dual-band capability of the substitute does not introduce incompatibility with single-band 5GHz system designs.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 2701186 directly replace the 2701348 in existing installations?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical mechanical mounting, connector type (N-type female), physical dimensions, and 5GHz frequency band specifications. No hardware or circuit modifications are required.

Q: What is the significance of the 2701186 being dual-band?

A: The 2701186 supports both 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands. In applications using only the 5GHz band, the 2.4GHz capability remains unused but does not affect 5GHz performance. The 9dBi gain specification applies to the 5GHz operating range.

Q: Are there compliance differences between these parts?

A: The 2701348 carries RoHS Compliant status. The 2701186 carries ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Affected designations, reflecting current regulatory standards. Both meet environmental compliance requirements for their respective product lifecycles.

Q: Does the substitute part have the same ingress protection rating?

A: Yes. Both the 2701348 and 2701186 maintain IP67 ingress protection, suitable for outdoor and harsh environment applications.

Q: What is the inventory status of these parts?

A: The 2701348 is obsolete with 1131 pieces available as new original stock. The 2701186 is active with 868 pieces available as new original stock in bulk packaging.
