B Radio link with one directional antenna and one omnidirectional antenna
A​moving​configuration,​for​example​for​a​robotic​cell,​can​be​implemented​using​a​combination​of​one​ZS6100‑0900​
directional​antenna​and​one​ZS6201‑0410​rod​antenna.​The​directional​antenna​projects​its​radio​cone​beyond​the​robot’s​
working​area;​the​omnidirectional​antenna​on​the​rotating​work​platform​moves​within​this​cone.

The​rotary​joint​of​the​antenna​holder​is​particularly​advantageous​for​this​configuration:​The​antennas​can​be​mounted​on​the​
wall​as​desired​and​are​subsequently​adjusted​to​one​another.
