Advantage
Disadvantage
off board
normally attached to cover
1) Plug and play. No antenna
matching/tuning or PCB change is
required.
2) With longer cable, antenna can be
placed away from noise source(ex.
Power circuit)
Higher assembly cost
Remark
Cable length and connector type can
be changed by customer request

on board(SMD)
1) compact size
2012/3216/5320/1003/8010 etc
2) SMD type. Low assembly cost
3) ceramic body. High thermalconduction and environmental
resistance
on board design and performance will
be reduced by board level noise or
other components closed to antenna.
Need to consider placement and
layout in very early design phase
