Overview

The CompleTech CA420C2 is an offset pattern collinear antenna designed for reliable wireless communication within the 405-440 MHz frequency band. This antenna offers a gain of 8 dBi and features vertical polarization, ensuring effective signal transmission and reception for critical industrial, telecom, and security applications. Constructed with a durable ABS/FG radome and PU foam filling, it provides robust protection against environmental factors. The radiator is made of copper for optimal RF performance. The CA420C2 is equipped with an N-/TNC-female connector, offering broad compatibility with various communication systems. Its VSWR is rated at less than 1.5, minimizing signal loss and maximizing efficiency. For installation flexibility, it supports pole mounting with diameters ranging from 35 to 60 mm. The antenna is engineered to withstand a wind load of 66 N, ensuring stability in challenging conditions. Its IP67 rated construction further guarantees protection against dust and water ingress. The CA420C2 benefits from DC short-circuited lightning protection and operates reliably across a wide temperature range of -40ºC to +80ºC. Key features include an integrated impedance compensation and RF choke for enhanced signal integrity. The antenna's design emphasizes a combination of durability, light weight, and low wind load, making it a practical choice for demanding deployments.
