Unboxing Molex Antenna Sample Kit

xeonaj
xeonaj
21 Oct 2019

I received the Molex Antenna Sample Kit for asking some good questions during an RF webinar -> Antenna Essentials: Key fundamentals that impact your RF system and steps to optimize antenna performance

 

So now am just going to show the antennas and some info about each. I didn't have the necessary tools and stuff to conduct a RoadTests & Reviews, so ended up with a blog. For more info check out ->Webinar Briefing & FAQ: Antenna Essentials: Key Fundamentals that Impact Your RF System is Available On-Demand!

 

The antenna Kit came in a good safe packaged box!

Thank You danzima, rscasny and tariq.ahmad for bringing such an opportunity.

I really didn't know how to start with the blog content. This is my first ever genuine blog post! So if there are any suggestions please don't mind to post them, I would love to hear your thoughts on my first blog. I think you guys also have blog benchmarking system so please post a link to those blogs you think are the best example that I should follow. Thank You waiting to hear from you!

    Yeah exactly! All I can do with them right now is using them in some board for extra range! I have been thinking to break into my small WiFi Dongle used for Kali Linux and add one of the antenna to it…

    I have been thinking to break into my small WiFi Dongle used for Kali Linux and add one of the antenna to it.

    The antenna are just built onto the board, I'll have to break the existing antenna on board and solder a connector onto the board and use my gifted antennas for extra range! AND KEEP HACKING AND PEN-TESTING FOR FUN

    Great. It looks like you're getting in some road test practice. It does seem particularly difficult to do much with an antenna without some specialised test equipment.

    Hi xeonaj ,

     

    You got it right.  The best thing to do is to jump right in and share.   Enthusiasm is contagious and the more you contribute the more you’ll find that this is a great place to learn and take your interest in electronics to another level.
