Overview

The CompleTech CA450D is a compact offset pattern dipole antenna engineered for reliable communication in the 440-475 MHz frequency range. With a 5 dBi gain and low VSWR of less than 1.5, this antenna ensures optimal signal transmission and reception for industrial, public safety, and military applications. Its copper radiator delivers high conductivity for minimal signal loss, while the ABS/FG PU foam radome provides robust protection against environmental factors such as UV exposure, moisture, and temperature fluctuations. The CA450D supports both vertical and horizontal polarization, offering flexibility in deployment scenarios where signal orientation may vary. Compatible with N-, TNC-, and 7/16-female connectors, the antenna integrates seamlessly into existing systems without requiring specialized adapters. Designed for mounting on poles with diameters between 35-60 mm, the CA450D includes a secure mounting bracket for stability. With a wind load rating of 32 N, it maintains performance in outdoor environments with moderate wind conditions. The antenna's compact dimensions (275 mm length, 670 mm width) and lightweight construction (32 g) make it ideal for space-constrained installations. Typical applications include land mobile radio systems, private mobile networks, and emergency communication networks where consistent signal coverage is critical.
