Position the antenna at the edge or corner of your device enclosure, away from metal components, batteries, LCD displays, and other RF sources (minimum 10mm clearance). Clean the mounting surface with isopropyl alcohol, peel the 3M adhesive backing, and press firmly. Connect the IPEX-3 connector to your module's antenna port with gentle downward pressure until you hear\/feel a click. The flexible substrate allows conformal mounting on curved surfaces with minimum 5mm bend radius. Verify performance using your module's signal strength indicators (RSSI) after installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"padding: 15px; background: #f9f9f9; border-left: 4px solid #0056b3; border-radius: 4px;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 8px; color: #111;\"\u003eQ: What is the expected WiFi range with this antenna?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"color: #666; margin: 0; font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eA: WiFi range depends on transmit power, receiver sensitivity, environmental conditions, and antenna placement. With typical WiFi transmit power (15-20 dBm) and proper installation, expect 40-100 meters indoor range and 150-250 meters outdoor line-of-sight. The 2.0 dBi gain provides approximately 1.6x range improvement compared to 0 dBi reference antennas, and 20-30% better performance than smaller FPC antennas. For WiFi routers and access points, the enhanced gain translates to larger coverage area and improved signal strength in multi-room environments. Internal antenna placement typically reduces range by 20-30% compared to external antennas, but the compact integration is often worth this trade-off for modern router designs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"cdsenet","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45203848691814,"sku":"tx2400-fpc3-3014","price":0.56,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0702\/9918\/9350\/files\/TX2400-FPC3-3014-_1_800x800_v2.jpg?v=1773473008","url":"https:\/\/cdsenet.store\/products\/tx2400-fpc3-3014-2-4ghz-fpc-antenna","provider":"CDSENET, Built for the Wireless World","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
