Multi-Band FM Communication Antenna
118 to 174 & 380 to 870 MHz
SKU: 21-50-45-2
The 21-50-45-2 is a multi-band, vertically polarized communications antenna particularly suited to latest generation VHF/UHF AM/FM/data link radios.
Designed as a short, top loaded monopole, excellent performance is achieved throughout the frequency range by use of frequency selective matching and decoupling circuits. Mechanical construction uses a glass reinforced thermoplastic shell with foamed-in-place internal elements. A single N-type connector is fitted to the aluminium base plate and is DC grounded for p-static protection.
- Wide bandwidth covers all commercial VHF and UHF FM frequencies.
- Meets MOPS for VHF ATC per DO186B
- Small size only 10 inches height.
- 25 watts power handling.
- Can be used with external diplexer/ triplexer for simultaneous multiband operation.
- Passive design does not require external tuning.
- Designed to environmental requirements for helicopter and subsonic transport aircraft.
