Overview

The CompleTech CA860B4 is a bidirectional stacked broadside antenna engineered for reliable bidirectional communication in the 830-890 MHz frequency range, optimized for industrial telecommunication applications. With a robust 9 dBi gain, this antenna ensures strong signal transmission and reception, maximizing coverage in both directions. The copper radiator delivers high conductivity for minimal signal loss and long-term durability, while the ABS/FG PU foam radome provides excellent weather resistance against UV exposure, moisture, and temperature fluctuations, ensuring mechanical stability in harsh outdoor environments. The antenna features an N-female connector for secure and efficient RF connectivity, compatible with standard coaxial cables. Vertical polarization enhances signal clarity and reduces interference, making it ideal for point-to-point and point-to-multipoint communication systems. Designed for pole mounting with diameters between 35-60 mm, the CA860B4 supports bidirectional communication with a low VSWR of less than 1.5, ensuring minimal signal reflection and optimal performance. With a wind load capacity of 100 N, the antenna maintains structural integrity in high-wind conditions, making it suitable for deployment in exposed locations such as telecommunication towers, industrial automation sites, and remote monitoring systems. Its compact and durable construction ensures long-term reliability in challenging industrial settings.
