Unity Gain Base Station and Marine 1800 MHz Antenna for
Mounting on Threaded 1” Water pipe
DESCRIPTION
The CXL 1800-1/… is a 0 dBd, vertically polarized, omnidirectional rod-
type base station and marine antenna for the 1800 MHz band.
The 1” revolving nut mounting system is standard throughout the base
station and marine sector, and several different mounting brackets are
available, making it possible to install the antenna either on the
masthead using FLG or SMR 2, side-mounted on the mast (SMR 1) or
mounted on a cross-beam (FLG). Also, the antenna can be mounted on
deck or rooftop by means of the FLG.
The CXL 1800-1/… is especially suitable for use in connection with 1800
MHz CELLULAR systems – as for instance the DCS-1800/PCN system –
making it possible to extend the normally land-based cellular telephone
system for maritime mobile service as well.
The higher the antenna is mounted, the better coverage. Avoid
mounting the antenna parallel to or in the neighbourhood of other metal
parts, such as masts, supporting wires etc., otherwise the SWR and the
radiation pattern may be strongly influenced.
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.
A conical glass fibre tube completely encloses the carefully designed
radiating element to ensure long dependable service in all climates.
