1. Introduction
The Barracuda OMB.868.B12F21 is a fiberglass omnidirectional outdoor antenna,
operating in the 868MHz ISM band and is designed to offer long distance coverage. The
antenna is designed for applications such as metering, industrial & environmental
monitoring, remote asset monitoring and mesh network applications. The 868MHz
band is one of the most widely used license free ISM bands.
With a 12dBi peak gain, the OMB.868.B12F21 omnidirectional antenna radiates
uniformly in the azimuth. This collinear design characteristic provides the best
performance, giving optimized coverage and therefore longer range in the horizontal
plane over 360 degrees, thus minimizing the amount of nodes needed for a mesh
network. The UV resistant fiberglass housing enables the OMB antenna to be utilized in
all kinds of harsh environments making it more robust and safer than traditional whip
antennas. It can be connected directly to the access point or telemetry unit or can be
mounted on wall or device surface via the N-type connector and a pole-mount and
wall-mount bracket is included.
