Andrew® TMW antennas provide a cost-effective solution for all terrestrial microwave systems operating at frequencies between 335 MHz and 19.7 GHz and in sizes from 2 ft. (0.6 m) to 15 ft. (4.6 m) in diameter.
Ultra Series
Ultra High Performance Antennas
UHX® and UHP® Series antennas provide high gain, low VSWR, and superior radiation pattern performance for easier frequency coordination. They minimize frequency congestion problems because of a highly efficient beam-forming feed and superior pattern performance. UHX Series feature dual polarization. UHP Series are single polarized.
HP and HPX Series Ultra Multiband Antennas
HP and HPX Series antennas feature high performance at low lifetime cost. They are mechanically similar to the UHX ultra high performance antennas, except most models have feeds that do not include the beam-forming feature. HPX Series feature dual polarization; HP Series are single polarized.
UMX® Series Ultra Multiband Antennas
UMX Series antennas provide simultaneous dual-band, dual-polarized (4-port) operation in various frequency bands. These antennas can save considerable cost by reducing the installation expense and the amount of equipment required on systems with multiple frequency requirements. UMX antennas allow easy single to multiband transition without compromising high performance.
HSX Series Antennas - High XPD Microwave Antennas
HSX Series antennas are high performance antennas, which feature very high cross polarization discrimination (XPD) in both the azimuth and elevation planes. The guaranteed XPD for these antennas is 40 dB. These antennas are suitable for high capacity digital systems, utilizing transmission schemes such as Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH). This performance is achieved through the use of an antenna feed horn with a unique illuminator ring design and strict quality control measures in the manufacture of these feeds. The cross polarization characteristics close to the boresight of the antenna are shown in the figure below. These values apply for antennas up to the 11 GHz frequency band. For antennas at frequency bands higher than 11 GHz, the XPD is greater than 36 dB within the circular -1 dB co-polar contour and greater than 30 dB elsewhere. The HSX Series antennas are available for frequency bands from 3.4 to 18 GHz.
Dual Beam Angle Diversity Antennas
Angle Diversity antennas are special solution antennas that provide a dual beam in either a single or dual polarized version. They can help overcome multipath fading issues when installation of two antennas is impractical due to tower space availability or wind loading.
P, PL, PX and PXL Series Standard Parabolic AntennasP, PL, PX, and PXL Series Standard Parabolic antennas are unshielded parabolic antennas that provide economical and reliable service where a high degree of back and side radiation suppression is not necessary.
- Low-VSWR versions minimize echo distortion for less noise on the system
- A vertical tower mount is included. Optional mounts and radomes can be ordered separately for versatility of installation
- Single and dual polarized options are available in most applicable frequencies
- Spun aluminum reflectors provide long term reliability and minimize environmental distortion to protect system investments
- Rugged, high quality performance at low initial costs
FP and FPX Series Standard Focal Plane AntennasFP and FPX Series Standard Focal Plane antennas are ideal for use in higher capacity systems where improved front-to-back ratios are required.
- Special deep reflectors and a unique beam-shaping feed or special edge geometry achieve efficient pattern performance. The antennas combine reasonable initial cost with very long-life performance, assuring long term economy.
- Single and dual polarization options are available
- A vertical tower mount for ease of tower interface is included
FPA Series Flat Panel Array Antennas
The Flat Panel Array (FPA)Series antennas are designs that provide solutions for many applications, including spread spectrum and UNII frequency band operation. The low profile has an aesthetically pleasing appearance and eases the planning and zoning process. The antennas incorporate a convenient rear mounted connector. The mount is easily assembled and readily attaches the antenna onto a vertical pipe.
The antennas are available at a variety of frequencies.
