Monocone Base Station Antennas, VHF and UHF, 70 to 520 MHz
Monocone base station antennas offer genuine broadband coverage and an omnidirectional radiation pattern. With integral ground plane, monocones also provide a low angle of radiation comparable with centre fed dipoles.
The radomes are a high quality UV resistant ABS with stainless steel radials for enhanced service life.
- Model B54 can be factory tuned to cover three different 7 MHz segments in the range 70 to 84 MHz. For a 7 MHz bandwidth other than those listed, you are welcome to enquire. The 1 metre RG213 cable tail is terminated with an N-Female connector rated for up to 100 watts input power.
- Model B56 covers the full VHF frequency range 148 to 174 MHz. An N-Female connector is located at the base of the mount tube. Maximum input power is 100 watts.
- Model B57 can be manufactured for any nominated 40 MHz segment within the UHF range 400 to 520 MHz. The N-Female connector at the base of the mount tube is rated for 100 watts power.
2 x EB1SS stainless steel clamps are recommended to mount these monocone antennas parallel to a round mast between 20 mm and 50 mm in diameter.
Airband Monocone Base Station Antennas, 118 to 136 MHz
Suitable for mounting to lightweight towers, the B55SS monocone covers the entire Air Band 118 to 136 MHz making this the ideal base station antenna for Airports where a variety of channels are used.
With an omnidirectional radiation pattern and integral ground plane, this monocone produces a low angle of radiation making it comparable with a centre fed dipole.
The radome is a high quality UV resistant ABS with stainless steel radials and stainless steel mount tube. This high quality construction ensures reliable performance over a long service life.
The 1 metre RG213 cable tail is terminated with an N-Female connector rated for up to 500 watts input power.
2 x EB1SS stainless steel parallel mast mounting clamps are recommended.
Constructed from aluminium, the B55AL monocone is an economical and effective antenna for airport communications.
Using the lower part of the air band for transmit, the sliding radials can be easily field tuned to receive any 8 MHz bandwidth within the frequency range 118 to 136 MHz.
Other key features of this air band monocone antenna are :
- Omnidirectional 360 degree radiation pattern.
- Broad 74 degree vertical beamwidth.
- Rated for up to 200 watts input power.
- Lightweight at just 3.1 kg.
- Low wind loading.
- The radials can be easily removed for transportation.
- Simple to mount to a round mast using 2 parallel clamps.
The 1 metre RG213 cable tail is terminated with an N-Female connector. Mounting clamps, coaxial feeder cable, connectors and other accessories are all available separately to complete the antenna installation.
