The patented Meander Collinear Antennas (COL Series) element design allows multiple half-wave elements to be stacked without the variations in cable lengths and mechanical joints which have typified the construction techniques in high gain collinear antennas.
The high performance VHF and UHF Onmi-Directional Diploe Array Antennas (BA Series) are ideal for highly populated radio sites requiring long haul omnidirectional coverage. They operate over entire bands and offer gain of 3, 6 or 9dBd (depending on model), exhibiting a VSWR of <1.5:1 across the band.
Offset Dipole Array Antennas (OA Series) are directional antennas for use when a base station is at one end of the coverage area. These new arrays feature improved gain, low noise performance and enhanced null fill coverage in an array with typical cardioid coverage characteristics.
Directional Antennas (CSA & FSA Series) arrays are based on the popular OA Series dipole array antennas. Supplied in “kit” form these antennas are delivered in flat pack packaging to minimize freight and warehousing issues and allow for simplified assembly at time of installation.
The Elliptical Dipole Array Antennas (EA Series) arrays provide exceptionally high gain with an elliptical shaped radiation pattern, ideal for the bi-directional coverage requirements of some “corridor” applications.
The Standard Broadband Antenna Series of robust, high-power broadband omni-directional antennas were designed to complement our widebandwidth multicoupling systems covering the frequency range of 450-512 MHz.
Each dipole element of a COL Series, Meander Collinear Antenna is printed on a single sided PCB, the susceptibility to passive intermodulation is practically eliminated. Placing the elements on a PCB controls PIM and removes manufacturing variations so that each and every antenna will provide the same pattern, tilt and VSWR characteristics over its operating bandwidth, resulting in a cost effective reliable, high performance, low PIM-rated antenna. Meander Collinear Antennas are available in the folllowing frequencies 136-174 MHz, 330-490 MHz and 746-960 MHz.
