CXL 2-3LW/...
Lightweight, 3 dBd Base Station and Marine Antenna for the
2 m Band
DESCRIPTION
CXL 2-3LW/… is a 3 dBd, vertically polarised, omnidirectional base
station and marine antenna, which covers the VHF-band in 4 models.
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.
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.
The CXL 2-3LW/… is a vibration-proof, lightweight, slim-line, corrosion
resistant, modern style base station and marine antenna.
