CXL 3-1LW
Unity-Gain, Omnidirectional Base Station Antenna for the
International Aircraft Band
DESCRIPTION
CXL 3-1LW is a 0 dBd, vertically polarized, omnidirectional base station
antenna for the 118 - 137 MHz civil aircraft band.
The antenna is a broad-banded ½ λ dipole design, and it is equipped
with our type “LW” mast mount, which is a lightweight, multi-purpose,
epoxy-coated aluminium mounting bracket with stainless steel fittings.
The antenna can be mounted on vertical or horizontal mast tubes, 16 to
54 mm in outer diameter. Further, the construction of the mount makes
it possible to lead the cable either along the inside or on the outside of
the mast tube.
A conical glass fibre tube with very low wind-loading completely
encloses the carefully designed radiating element to ensure long
dependable service in all climates.
To substantially reduce noise caused by atmospherical discharges, all
metal parts in the antenna are DC-grounded. Consequently, the antenna
shows a DC-short across the coaxial cable.
CXL 3-1LW is a vibration-proof, lightweight, slim-line, corrosion-
resistant, modern style base station antenna.
