CA860V

The CompleTech CA860V vehicular antenna (SKU: CA860V) is engineered for reliable communication within the 830-890 MHz frequency range. This antenna features a consistent 2 dBi gain and vertical polarization, ensuring effective signal transmission and reception for a variety of vehicular applications. Its robust construction includes a UV-resistant FG radome with white finish and black PP accents, filled with PU foam for enhanced durability and environmental protection. The radiator is constructed from high-conductivity copper. Connection is facilitated by a standard N-female connector, known for its secure mating and signal integrity. The antenna maintains a low VSWR of less than 1.5, which is critical for minimizing signal reflection and maximizing power transfer efficiency. Mounting is straightforward, utilizing four M5x20 mm stainless steel bolts with self-locking nuts and a closed-cell PE foam gasket for a secure and weather-resistant installation. The CA860V is designed to operate reliably across a wide temperature range, from -40ºC to +80ºC, and boasts an IP67 rating, indicating full protection against dust ingress and immersion in water up to 1 meter. It is built to withstand a wind load of 7 N. This antenna is suitable for applications such as fleet management, public safety communications, and transportation networks where dependable RF performance in mobile environments is paramount. The radiation pattern data indicates an E-plane 3 dB beamwidth of 81º and an H-plane 3 dB beamwidth of 0º, with a Front-to-Back ratio of 0 dB, typical for omnidirectional patterns.
