Centre Fed Dipole Antenna
Experience top-tier performance and seamless communication with our Centre Fed Dipole Antenna. Whether you require specific frequencies or prefer customisation, we offer two options: ready-made antennas or the flexibility to cut them to your desired length. With line taps and frequency charts included, on-site adjustments are a breeze.
Crafted from high-quality purpose-designed components, our antennas are engineered to thrive in the most extreme environments, ensuring reliable performance when you need it most. Ideal for short to medium-range communication, these antennas deliver exceptional results.
At a quarter wave above ground level, our Centre Fed Dipole Antennas predominantly radiate upwards, offering partial omnidirectional coverage through skywaves. Increase the height to half wave, and the radiation pattern transforms into a figure of eight, catering to different coverage requirements.
Technical Specifications:
- Antenna Elements: Choose from 7/0.44” (7/1.118mm) or 7/0.36” (7/0.914mm) hard drawn copper magnesium strand.
