The A-PDA4971-30 is a high-performance broadband parabolic dish antenna engineered for long-range wireless communications across the 4.95-7.125 GHz frequency band. Featuring an advanced wideband design, the antenna eliminates the need for multiple antenna models across different operating frequencies, simplifying network planning, inventory management, and field deployment.
Delivering 30 dBi of high-gain performance with a narrow 5° beamwidth, the A-PDA4971-30 is ideally suited for point-to-point wireless links, broadband backhaul networks, industrial communications, surveillance systems, and mission-critical data transmission applications that require maximum signal strength and link reliability.
Constructed from premium-grade aluminium, the antenna reflector provides exceptional structural strength while maintaining a lightweight profile. A UV-stabilised grey polymer coating enhances environmental durability and long-term appearance in harsh outdoor environments. The perforated reflector design reduces wind loading, improving stability and survivability in exposed installations.
The antenna supports both vertical and horizontal polarisation, offering deployment flexibility across a wide range of wireless systems. An integrated heavy-duty tilt-and-swivel mounting system enables precise alignment and elevation adjustment from 0° to 30° for optimal link performance.
For applications requiring additional environmental protection, an optional fibreglass radome cover kit is available. Designed for direct attachment without drilling, the lightweight UV-resistant radome enhances protection against weather, debris, and environmental contaminants while maintaining antenna performance. Integrated drainage provisions help prevent moisture accumulation and support long-term operational reliability.
