Antennas that collapse in several sections developed

We are pleased to announce the development and commencement of marketing of the “antennas that collapse in several section [FX7026]” which is for the 1-segment of mobile phones. 
 
In recent years, there are many cases where the 1-segment function has become the standard specification for mobile phones, and an external whip antenna is equipped in order to improve receiving sensitivity.  Furthermore, with the main body of the mobile phones becoming smaller and thinner, the demand for a whip antenna that is more shorter when collapsed and more longer when extended due to receiving sensitivity performances has grown.

In order to respond to such needs, the “antennas that collapse in several sections” has been developed.

This product is available in two size variations of 3 section type and 5 section type when collapsed/extended.  This can be selected according to the target equipment. 

We will continue the effects for active development of products and provision of new products.
