CXL 2-3C/…

Sturdy 3 dBd Gain Base Station Antenna

for the 160 MHz Band
DESCRIPTION:
+ CXL 2-3C/… is a sturdy, 3 dBd, vertically polarised, omnidirectional base station
antenna, which covers the 160 MHz band in 4 models.
+ The antenna is provided with our heavy-duty type “C” mast bracket, which is a
universal, epoxy-coated mounting bracket made of non-corrosive aluminium. The
accompanying U-bolts and fittings are made of stainless steel.
+ The antenna can be mounted on 27 to 65 mm dia. mast tubes and it is possible to
lead the cable either along the inside or on the outside of the mast tube.
+ The phasing of the radiating elements is carefully adjusted to yield maximum gain in
the horizontal plane, with the level of the sidelobes reduced to a minimum. Special
emphasis has been laid on obtaining a large bandwidth both in relation to SWR and
gain.
+ The broad-banded antenna element is completely enclosed in a glassfiber shroud,
which will ensure undisturbed performance 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.
+ This antenna is constructed to ensure long dependable service in all climates.
