CAAIRGP

The CompleTech CAAIRGP is a robust omnidirectional ground plane antenna engineered for reliable communication within the 118-137 MHz frequency range. Designed for demanding industrial and aviation applications, this antenna offers a consistent 2 dBi gain with vertical polarization, ensuring effective signal transmission and reception. Its construction features a durable, UV-resistant FG (fiberglass) radome with white PU foam filling, protecting the high-quality copper radiator. The antenna is equipped with both N-female and TNC-female connectors, providing versatile connectivity options. A key specification is its low VSWR of less than 1.5, which minimizes signal reflection and maximizes power transfer efficiency. The mounting bracket is constructed from aluminum alloy and utilizes stainless steel V-bolts and self-locking nuts, accommodating pole diameters from 35 to 60 mm. This robust design ensures secure attachment even under significant wind loads, rated at 52 N. The CAAIRGP is built for longevity and performance in harsh environments, with an operating temperature range of -40ºC to +80ºC and an IP67 rating for dust and water ingress protection. Its DC-short circuited and grounded feed point provides lightning protection. This antenna is an ideal choice for air traffic control, aviation communication systems, and other critical ground-based communication infrastructure requiring dependable omnidirectional coverage.
