Overview

The CompleTech CA230D is an offset pattern dipole antenna designed for reliable operation within the 221-239 MHz frequency range. This antenna offers a consistent 5 dBi gain and supports both vertical and horizontal polarization, ensuring versatile signal transmission and reception capabilities. Its robust construction features a UV-resistant ABS/FG radome with PU foam filling, providing excellent durability and weatherproofing. The radiator is made of copper for optimal conductivity. The CA230D is engineered for low signal loss, boasting a VSWR of less than 1.5. Connectivity is flexible, with support for N-, TNC-, and 7/16-female connectors. Mounting is straightforward, accommodating poles with diameters from 35 to 60 mm using an aluminum alloy bracket with stainless steel V-bolts and self-locking nuts. The antenna is rated IP67 for dust and water ingress protection and operates reliably in temperatures ranging from -40ºC to +80ºC. Its design prioritizes durability, light weight, and low wind load, making it suitable for various outdoor industrial communication systems, including telecommunications and broadcasting infrastructure. The DC-short circuited feed point and integrated impedance compensation contribute to its efficient performance. Manufacturer: CompleTech. SKU: CA230D.
