Marine AntennasCXL 2-1LW/...

Universal, Unity-Gain Base Station and Marine Antenna for the 160 MHz Band

Description

  • This multi-purpose, omnidirectional, 0 dBd, rod-type base station and marine antenna covers the 160 MHz band in three models with 10 MHz overlap and can be used in a wide variety of applications.
  • The broad-banded ½ λ dipole antenna element is sealed in a high-quality conical glass fibre tube with low wind-load, which will ensure undisturbed performance by corrosive environments.
  • Provided with the sturdy “LW” mast mount - a lightweight, multipurpose, epoxy-coated mounting bracket made of non-corrosive aluminium.
  • The accompanying U-bolts and fittings are made of stainless steel.
  • To be mounted on vertical or horizontal mast tubes, 16 to 54 mm in outer diameter.
  • The cable can be led either on the outside or along the inside of the mast tube.
  • Large bandwidth with respect to both VSWR and gain.
  • CXL 2-1LW/… is DC-grounded to substantially reduce noise caused by atmospherical discharges and consequently shows a DC-short across the coaxial cable.
  • The CXL 2-1LW/… is a vibration-proof, lightweight, slim-line, corrosion-resistant, modern style base station and marine antenna.
  • For extreme marine environments, it is recommended to use the CXL 150-1LW-SS-R/....
