Design Freedom
 

"SkyCross enables manufacturers to make any wireless device a reality.  Whether you're designing a low-end, cost-conservative product or a high-end device packed with features, SkyCross has the right solution for you."
- Chris Morton, CEO, SkyCross
 
 

Worldwide sales of wireless devices continue to grow dramatically. As markets mature, customers everywhere increasingly integrate wireless functionality into their daily lives. They also demand more advanced services requiring multi-function, multi-band devices with reliable performance and prolonged battery life.

Manufacturers of these devices must combat tough design constraints associated with radio-frequency (RF) interference and rapidly develop slim, differentiated designs at compelling price points. In addition, they must accomplish these tasks under intense market and cost pressures, but maintain profitability in a highly competitive industry.

SkyCross sets designers free to create a full range of consumer electronics products that are small, stylish, and differentiated through superior antenna technology and convenient, one-source solutions. Regional offices provide local support throughout the design and manufacturing process. On-site problem solving experts ensure that the RF system - not just the antenna - are optimized. This unique approach empowers device manufacturers to develop winning consumer electronics and deliver them to market faster and easier!

Design Freedom at Last

Any wireless device

SkyCross antennas are compact to fit into the smallest form factors. Our versatile antenna technology can be applied to a wide range of mobile platforms including slim mobile handsets, smartphones, notebook computers, USB dongles, PC cards including ExpressCard/34, personal media players, access points, ultra-mobile PCs, and more!

Any combination of features

SkyCross offers endless possibilities for designers to create mobile devices with any combination of features. The antenna can be molded to work around other components such as cameras, navigation units, data/Internet, video, music players, etc. Antennas are designed to conserve battery life and per-application performance as features are added for optimal system operation.

Any set of frequency bands

The frequency band is the defining factor of antenna design. Lower frequencies physically demand a larger antenna, yet SkyCross offers fully embedded solutions that operate as low as 180 MHz on some mobile video networks. Voice and data standards start at the 850 MHz band and can be covered with a single multi-band antenna to simplify device design. The highest frequencies supported by SkyCross antennas include 3-10 GHz for ultra-wideband (UWB) applications.

Any network

Next-generation protocols continue to evolve as data rates become faster and new networks are deployed. SkyCross stays ahead of the curve with its protocol-independent solutions, offering antennas to meet all of the latest services. Often with a single antenna, SkyCross products can operate on any combination of networks including WiMAX, DVB-T/H, T-DMB, S-DMB, HSDPA, CDMA, GSM, UMTS, and beyond.

Any price point

SkyCross designs all antennas with manufacturing in mind, using off-the-shelf materials and minimizing complicated assembly processes. This keeps costs down for high-end devices and meets critical price points for low-end devices.

Any regional or global market

SkyCross technology is commercially proven every day in wireless networks around the globe.  Highly trained engineers at our regional locations are experienced with adapting our technology to any market.
