## 1. Introduction 

The WM.86 is a high efficiency (over 50%) 868MHz flexible whip antenna with a screw mounted wall mount L bracket. The radiation pattern is omni-directional in the azimuth, allowing for large coverage range in typical indoor or outdoor installations. Peak gain, average gain/efficiency are both optimized to provide extended coverage area in the azimuth (horizontal direction), while also maintaining an Omni-directional pattern for close in reception/transmission. 

Typical Applications include: 

- Remote Monitoring 

- Connected Enterprise 

- Mesh Networks 

This antenna provides high efficiency while fixed on the L-bracket. The whip is made up of a flexible inner steel core covered by TPU, so it is extremely resistant to collisions and maintaining its original shape and RF performance. The whip and the internal connection to the bracket is IP65 rated waterproof. The whip can be removed by unscrewing. 

The bracket allows complete concealment of the cable for a more secure integration and cleaner installation. The cable can also be routed out of the back wall of the bracket into the interior of the mounting wall for added security against vandalism. The standard version comes with 3 metres of extremely low loss CFD-200 cable (0.3dB against 0.7dB for RG-58) to allow for flexibility of placement. The cable and connector can be completely customized. The whip itself can also be changed for different frequency bands or gain requirements.
