color: #666; margin-bottom: 15px;\"\u003eThe 197mm TPEE antenna body achieves 5.0 dBi gain through a 5\/8-wave equivalent radiator design at 2.4GHz, compressing the radiation pattern toward the horizon for increased horizontal gain compared to standard quarter-wave (2.15 dBi) antennas. The TPEE radome allows bending to various angles for flexible orientation in space-constrained enclosures, while maintaining the copper radiator's electrical length. This combination of high gain and flexible form factor makes the TX2400-JKS-IPX20 suitable for embedded module installations where a rigid external antenna cannot be used.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"TX2400-JKS-IPX20 197mm TPEE bendable antenna body 5.0dBi 2.4GHz WiFi for embedded module installation\" cke-id=\"img32\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0702\/9918\/9350\/files\/TX2400-JKS-IPX20-_8_800x800_v2.jpg?v=1774949828\" style=\"max-width: 100%; height: auto; display: block; margin: 0 auto; border-radius: 4px;\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"background: #ffffff; border: 1px solid #eee; border-radius: 8px; padding: 20px;\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-size: 18px; color: #111; margin: 0 0 10px 0;\"\u003eGold-Plated IPEX-I Connector with 200mm RG1.37 Feeder\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 14px; color: #666; margin-bottom: 15px;\"\u003eThe gold-plated IPEX-I (U.FL-compatible) connector mates directly with ESP32, ESP8266, nRF52840, CC2652, and other 2.4GHz wireless SoCs and modules with IPX-I antenna ports.

The TX2400-JK-11 uses a direct SMA-J connector (no cable), delivers 2.5 dBi gain, and mounts directly on SMA-K ports. Choose IPX20 for IPEX-I module ports requiring high gain; choose JK-11 for direct SMA-K port mounting with standard gain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 20px; padding: 15px; background: #fafafa; border-radius: 8px;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 6px;\"\u003eQ: Which 2.4GHz modules is the TX2400-JKS-IPX20 compatible with?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"color: #555; margin: 0; font-size: 14px;\"\u003eA: The TX2400-JKS-IPX20 is compatible with any 2.4GHz wireless module or SoC featuring an IPEX-I (U.FL \/ IPX Gen 1) antenna socket, including ESP32, ESP8266, nRF52840, CC2652, Si4463, and Ebyte E18\/E72\/E104 series modules. Confirm your module uses IPEX-I (Gen 1) rather than IPEX-4 (MHF4) before ordering, as the two connector generations are not interchangeable despite similar appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 20px; padding: 15px; background: #fafafa; border-radius: 8px;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 6px;\"\u003eQ: Can this antenna be installed inside a metal enclosure?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"color: #555; margin: 0; font-size: 14px;\"\u003eA: No. The TPEE antenna body must be positioned inside a non-metallic (ABS, PC, or TPEE) enclosure with at least 5mm clearance from metal components. At 2.4GHz, metal surfaces within close proximity cause severe signal attenuation and antenna detuning. The 200mm RG1.37 cable allows the IPEX-I connector to mate with a module inside a metal enclosure while routing the antenna body through a non-metallic section or aperture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 20px; padding: 15px; background: #fafafa; border-radius: 8px;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 6px;\"\u003eQ: Can the 200mm cable length be customized?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"color: #555; margin: 0; font-size: 14px;\"\u003eA: Yes. The standard cable length is 200mm, but custom lengths are available per order for high-volume production runs. Note that at 2.4GHz, each additional 100mm of RG1.37 cable adds approximately 0.3–0.5 dB of insertion loss, which should be accounted for in the system link budget. For cable lengths exceeding 500mm, consider using a lower-loss cable type such as RG178 or RG316.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"padding: 15px; background: #fafafa; border-radius: 8px;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 6px;\"\u003eQ: What is the operating temperature range and is the TPEE radome suitable for outdoor use?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"color: #555; margin: 0; font-size: 14px;\"\u003eA: The TX2400-JKS-IPX20 is rated for -40°C to +85°C. The TPEE radome is weather-resistant and UV-stable, suitable for protected outdoor installations inside IP65+ enclosures. The antenna itself is not independently IP-rated and must be protected by the device enclosure from direct rain and condensation. The TPEE material provides better crack resistance than standard rubber under repeated temperature cycling and UV exposure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n","brand":"cdsenet","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45301875867750,"sku":"TX2400-JKS-IPX20","price":1.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0702\/9918\/9350\/files\/TX2400-JKS-IPX20-_1_800x800_v2.jpg?v=1773986454","url":"https:\/\/cdsenet.store\/products\/tx2400-jks-ipx20-2-4ghz-wifi-antenna-5-0dbi-ipex-i-tpee","provider":"CDSENET, Built for the Wireless World","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
