Overview

The CompleTech CA450C3 is an offset pattern collinear antenna engineered for reliable performance in the 440-475 MHz frequency range. This antenna delivers a substantial 10 dBi gain, ensuring robust signal transmission and reception critical for industrial, telecommunications, and public safety networks. Its vertical polarization is optimized for specific communication scenarios. Constructed with a durable UV-resistant ABS/FG radome and PU foam filling, the CA450C3 is built to withstand challenging environmental conditions, boasting an IP67 rating for proof construction. The radiator is made of high-conductivity copper for optimal RF performance. Featuring a low VSWR of less than 1.5, this antenna minimizes signal reflection and maximizes power transfer efficiency. Connectivity is facilitated by N-female and TNC-female connectors, providing versatile and secure connections. Mounting is straightforward, accommodating poles with a diameter of 35-60 mm, utilizing an aluminum alloy bracket with stainless steel V-bolts and self-locking nuts. The antenna is designed with DC short-circuiting for lightning protection. Operating within a wide temperature range of -40ºC to +80ºC, the CA450C3 is a dependable choice for demanding applications requiring consistent and efficient RF communication. Key features include a field-adjustable pattern, optional beam tilting, integrated impedance compensation, and an integrated RF choke, all contributing to its versatile deployment and performance.
