I bought an antenna 2042811100 MOLEX. https://www.molex.com/molex/products/da ... TENNAS.xml
But it does not stick into the slot on module ESP32-WROOM-32U.
What kind of antennas do you use in your projects?
External antenna
Re: External antenna
This antenna has a MHF4 connector and ESP32 modules have IPEX connectors.

QUESTION
What is the difference between u.fl. / IPEX / MHF4?
SOLUTION
u.fl and IPEX are all different names for the same contact. So you can use these names interchangeably.
MHF4 is the smaller contact used with m.2/NGFF modules.
Re: External antenna
Technically MHF4 is part of the same family as "IPEX" which is really MHF or MHF1 made by I-PEX
Re: External antenna
Thank you all!
But in the specification for the antenna indicated that it is a ufl connector.
Where is the truth?

Re: External antenna
You need a wifi antenna, 2.4GHz, with U.FL (IPEX) connector.rahmaevao wrote:I bought this antenna here. Is it suitable?

The antenna you've bought is designed for Arduino MKR1200 and it is a Sigfox antenna for 868MHz.
It may work, but not good.

Re: External antenna
Are there specific models that you use?
Re: External antenna
Choosing the wifi antenna depends on the intended usage.
If you just need to connect to the wifi router in your home, any wifi antenna will probably work good.
If you have trouble choosing the antenna, I would recommend next time you buy the ESP32 module with the PCB antenna.
