6 Antenna information 6 Antenna information 6.1 Antenna type BF8H-N uses the PCB antenna with a gain of 1.4 dBi. 6.2 Interference reduction To ensure the best RF performance, it is recommended that the antenna be at least 15 mm away from other metal parts. If metal materials are wrapped around the antenna, the wireless signal will be greatly attenuated, thereby deteriorating the RF performance. When designing the finished product, please leave enough space for the antenna.
