FXP14.11.0100B RF Antenna Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The FXP14.11.0100B is a multi-band flat patch RF antenna manufactured by Taoglas Limited, designed for cellular applications including CDMA and GSM standards. This antenna operates across six frequency bands: 850MHz, 900MHz, 1.7GHz, 1.8GHz, 1.9GHz, and 2.1GHz, with a GSC (adhesive) termination and mounting method.

The FXP14.11.0100B is classified as obsolete. Identifying equivalent substitute parts is necessary to maintain design continuity, ensure supply chain availability, and support ongoing production or maintenance requirements for systems utilizing this antenna.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the FXP14.11.0100B is determined by the following critical parameters:

  • Frequency Coverage: All six operating bands (850MHz, 900MHz, 1.7GHz, 1.8GHz, 1.9GHz, 2.1GHz) must be supported
  • Antenna Type: Flat patch configuration required
  • RF Family/Standard: Cellular (CDMA, GSM) applications
  • Electrical Performance: VSWR of 2.5 and matching return loss values across all bands
  • Gain Specifications: Identical gain values across all six bands (2dBi, 1.5dBi, 3dBi, 2.5dBi, 2dBi, 2.5dBi)
  • Mounting Method: Adhesive mounting type
  • Physical Dimensions: Maximum height of 0.004" (0.10mm)
  • Compliance: ROHS3 compliance and MSL rating of 1

The FXP14.09.0100A meets all electrical and mechanical parameters required for substitution. The primary difference is the termination type (MMCX Male versus GSC), which represents a connector interface variation rather than a functional incompatibility at the antenna element level.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The FXP14.09.0100A is an active product substitute for the obsolete FXP14.11.0100B. Both parts maintain identical electrical performance across all six cellular frequency bands and share the same physical form factor and mounting method.

The primary distinction between these parts is the connector termination: the FXP14.11.0100B uses GSC termination, while the FXP14.09.0100A provides MMCX Male termination. This difference requires evaluation of the receiving system's connector interface requirements.

Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL rating of 1, ensuring equivalent environmental and regulatory suitability. The FXP14.09.0100A's active product status provides superior long-term supply chain availability compared to the obsolete FXP14.11.0100B.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the FXP14.09.0100A directly replace the FXP14.11.0100B without modification?

A: The FXP14.09.0100A matches all electrical and mechanical specifications of the FXP14.11.0100B. However, the termination difference (MMCX Male versus GSC) requires connector compatibility verification with the receiving system. If the system interface expects GSC termination, an adapter or connector modification may be necessary.

Q: Are the frequency bands and gain specifications identical between these parts?

A: Yes. Both parts operate across the same six frequency bands (850MHz, 900MHz, 1.7GHz, 1.8GHz, 1.9GHz, 2.1GHz) with identical gain values (2dBi, 1.5dBi, 3dBi, 2.5dBi, 2dBi, 2.5dBi) and VSWR of 2.5.

Q: What is the significance of the FXP14.11.0100B being obsolete?

A: Obsolete status indicates the part is no longer manufactured or supported by Taoglas Limited. The FXP14.09.0100A, classified as active, provides ongoing availability and manufacturer support for equivalent functionality.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both the FXP14.11.0100B and FXP14.09.0100A are ROHS3 compliant with MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited), ensuring equivalent environmental and regulatory compliance.

Q: What is the physical form factor difference, if any?

A: Both parts share identical physical dimensions with a maximum height of 0.004" (0.10mm) and use adhesive mounting. The form factor is equivalent.
