antennaPRO launches new antenna
UK-based telecommunications equipment supplier, antennaPRO, has launched a new multi-purpose slim-line antenna for use onboard or in coastal-based offices in marinas or harbours.
The CXL 2-1LW-CS-R is available in three versions covering the 160MHz band with a 10MHz overlap. It features a broad-banded ½ λ dipole antenna element sealed in a conical glass fibre tube with low wind-load. Its LW-CS Mount is made from a high strength low carbon steel alloy making it corrosion-resistant.
The antenna can be mounted on vertical or horizontal mast tubes, 16 to 54mm in outer diameter and the cable can be led either on the outside or along the inside of the mast tube.
The CXL 2-1LW-CS-R is DC-grounded to reduce noise caused by atmospherically discharges and consequently shows a DC-short across the coaxial cable.
antennaPRO, previously known as Procom UK, supplies the blue light, commercial, government, military, public safety, transport, security and utility sectors.
