      Hello,
      I have to use an external antenna with my Lora 868 module but I don't know what kind of antenna to use specially what kind of connector.
      Does anyone knows what antenna model is compatible with this module ? there is no reference on the M5stack web site.

        Hi,

        Sometimes I find IPX (or I-PEX or U.FL?), sometimes MCX, sometimes SMA... on descriptions

        So I link them all here... so you can find out yourself

        SMA wikipedia the most common one, it is threaded

        MCX wikipedia snap in

        IPX I-PEX U.FL wikipedia very tiny, mostly used on little pc board connections, surface mounted, snap on

        For antennas, you could do an internet search with keywords: "868 MHz antenna"

        Also YouTube is a nice source for searching all these terms

        LoRa module video on YouTube at 2:00 minutes it shows internally U.FL connectors, and externally MCX if I am not mistaken
