CXL 230-3LW/DAB
Lightweight, 3 dBd Base Station and Marine Antenna for the
DAB Band
DESCRIPTION
CXL 230-3LW/DAB is a vertically polarised, omnidirectional base station
and marine antenna, which covers the DAB (Digital Audio Broadcast)
Band.
Approximately 3 dBd gain.
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 SWR and gain.
The phasing of the radiating elements is adjusted to yield maximum
gain in the horizontal plane, with the level of the sidelobes reduced to a
minimum.
The carefully designed, broad-banded antenna element is sealed in a
high-quality conical glass fibre tube with low wind-load, which will
ensure performance undisturbed by corrosive environments.
All metal parts in the antenna are DC-grounded to reduce the noise
caused by atmospherical discharge. Consequently, the antenna shows a
DC-short across the coaxial cable.
The CXL 230-3LW/DAB is a vibration-proof, lightweight, slim-line,
corrosion resistant, modern style base station and marine antenna.
