TE Connectivity L001415-01 LoRa Adhesive Mini Puck Antenna

Introduction

The TE Connectivity L001415-01 is a compact adhesive-mounted antenna designed for sub-GHz wireless communication systems. Its low-profile mini puck format, weather-resistant construction, and SMA male connection make it suitable for LoRa and other long-range, low-power wireless deployments.

Part Description

TE Connectivity’s L001415-01 LoRa Adhesive Mini Puck Antenna operates across the 868 MHz to 915 MHz frequency range. This coverage supports common regional LoRa and LPWAN bands, as well as ISM-band communication and Wi-Fi HaLow devices operating in compatible sub-GHz ranges.

The antenna uses a slim 14 mm x 85 mm puck-style housing that can be attached directly to an enclosure or equipment surface with adhesive mounting. Its IP67 rating provides protection against dust ingress and temporary water immersion, supporting installations in both indoor and outdoor environments.

An RG174 coaxial cable connects the antenna to equipment, terminating in an SMA male connector. This common RF connector arrangement simplifies integration with gateways, sensors, embedded wireless modules, routers, and other devices equipped with an SMA antenna port.

Applications

Potential applications for the L001415-01 include:

• LoRaWAN sensor nodes
• LPWAN gateways and repeaters
• Smart metering systems
• Remote environmental monitoring equipment
• Agricultural telemetry devices
• Asset-tracking hardware
• Industrial wireless sensor networks
• Smart-building monitoring systems
• Connected utility infrastructure
• Wi-Fi HaLow-enabled IoT devices
• Outdoor data-loggers
• Security and access-control equipment

Industries

The antenna can be used in a variety of industries, including:

• Internet of Things (IoT)
• Smart cities
• Agriculture and precision farming
• Industrial automation
• Utilities and energy management
• Building automation
• Logistics and asset management
• Environmental monitoring
• Transportation infrastructure
• Security systems
• Telecommunications
