About
The piPATCH-IoT-TC is a Space-Friendly, top-notch high-gain RHCP CubeSat antenna covering the majority of terrestrial IoT services operating on the coordinated 868 MHz and 915 MHz ISM/LoRa/SigFox bands via a single RF port, intended for the CubeSat Z side using Exopod Nova Tuna-Can installations. It has wide RF coverage with a uniform hemispherical radiation pattern, ideal for Nadir/Zenith-oriented satellites, ensuring orientation toward terrestrial IoT sources with a Z-face. It covers the full 868 MHz and 915 MHz bands used across Europe, the USA and Australia, handling up to 5 W RF output power. The module measures 98x98x(+7/-4) mm with a low profile and MCX-F connector, weighs 75 g, and fits the Exopod Nova Tuna-Can protrusion (92 mm diameter); mounting hole positions can be modified free of charge on request. RF coupling and EMI shielding are built in. Offered as Flight Model (FM) and unmarked OEM Flight Model variants.
