A compact, high-performance 5 cm short whip antenna engineered for indoor routers, IoT gateways, LoRa modules, and wireless communication devices operating at 433 MHz or 868 MHz. The SMA Male right-angle connector allows low-profile, flush mounting on PCBs, enclosures, and router housings without protruding cable assemblies — saving valuable space in compact device designs.
At just 3 dBi gain with a broad omnidirectional radiation pattern, this antenna delivers reliable indoor coverage for short-to-medium range wireless links. Factory-direct supply ensures consistent quality, competitive pricing, and rapid lead times for OEM/ODM projects.

Q1: Is a 5 cm antenna efficient at 433 MHz?
A: At 433 MHz, a full quarter-wave antenna is approximately 17 cm. A 5 cm element is electrically short and uses loading (spring coil or matching network) to achieve resonance. While gain is modest (3 dBi), it provides adequate indoor range for typical IoT/router applications (10–50 m line-of-sight). For maximum range, a longer antenna is recommended; for compact design, this 5 cm solution is optimal.
Q2: What does "SMA Male Right Angle" mean?
A: The connector pins into a standard SMA female jack on your device, but the antenna element bends 90° at the base. This allows the antenna to lie flat against the enclosure surface rather than sticking straight up, saving vertical clearance in tight installations.
Q3: Can this antenna work for both 433 MHz and 868 MHz simultaneously?
A: Standard models are tuned to one frequency for optimal VSWR. We do offer a dual-band version (433/868 MHz) with a slightly modified matching network. Please specify your requirement when requesting a quote.
Q4: Is this antenna suitable for outdoor use?
A: This model is designed for indoor use. For outdoor deployments, we recommend our IP67-rated fiberglass or ABS-enclosed antenna series with UV and moisture protection.
Q5: What is the MOQ for custom-tuned versions?
A: Standard 433 MHz and 868 MHz models are available in stock with no MOQ. Custom frequency tuning or connector changes typically require a minimum order of 500–1000 pieces. Samples are available for evaluation.
Q6: Can you provide S-parameter (S11) files for PCB integration?
A: Yes. We provide S11 measurement data (.s1p / .s2p files) and recommended PCB ground plane dimensions to help your hardware team optimize placement and matching.
Q7: What is the lead time for bulk orders?
A: Stock models ship within 3–5 business days. Custom OEM orders (custom frequency, connector, or branding) typically require 10–20 business days depending on quantity.
Q8: Do you offer matching network design support?
A: Yes. Our RF engineering team can assist with π-network or L-network matching design to ensure optimal VSWR when the antenna is integrated into your specific enclosure or PCB layout.
