OMNI HALF-WAVE SATELLITE ANTENNA
5000-0020-1
OMNI HALF WAVE ANTENNA


Transmits to the Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES)

Ideal for Buoy Applications

  • Mobile Satellite Platforms
  • ARGOS platforms
  • NOAA A-H Platforms
  • Radiosonde Receivers
  • Transit Navigation Receivers Sites needing illumination of multiple satellites
  • Polar or Equatorial satellite coverage
FEATURES
  • Rust resistant w/sealed G-10 fiberglass radome & a white two part polyurethane paint finish for long life under hostile atmospheric conditions
  • Fully sealed to the environment
  • Omni directional providing up to a 160 degree half power beamwidth almost horizon to horizon (Half-Wave Quadrafilar Helix Antenna with Right- Hand Circular Polarization, hemispherically omni-directional)
  • Multiple satellite coverage regardless of the position of the antenna
  • Antenna pointing not required since antenna is mounted vertically; no additional alignment necessary
  • Light weight, resonant
  • Superior axial ratio, SWR, & bandwidth

HELPFUL HINTS

  • When mounting an Omni antennas on a side arm of a tower, do not mount the antenna close to the metal structure. Place the antenna at least three to four feet from the side of the tower, more if possible. This minimizes the distortion of the antenna pattern allowing maximum gain.
  • To maximize the service life of the installation, always apply waterproof or antenna sealant tape to the RF connector once the coaxial cable has been connected to the base.
