EDITOR'S CHOICE The Universal Spring Mount Antenna Range Sticks its Neck Out Cobham Antenna Systems has announced the launch of a dual-band, Gooseneck addition to the Universal spring mount range of omni-directional antennas. Volume 20 / Issue 2 Editor & Publisher David Webster Director of Content Nick Depperschmidt Senior Editor Shannon Given The OA2-2.3V-5.2V/2358 is a ground plane independent, dual band antenna that covers the frequency ranges 2.10 to 2.60 GHz and 4.40 to 6.00 GHz, offering 4 dBi gain in the higher frequencies. Associate Editor Heather Williams News Editors Sue Hannebrink, Scott Webster Robert Schaudt Advertising Sales and Marketing Robert Schaudt, Advertising Sales Manager It can be used for multi-band applications providing a versatile antenna for use with software defined radios taking up less 'real estate' on the platform on which it is mounted. It can also be used to replace several single band antennas, reducing inventory. The OA2-2.3V-5.2V/2358 has been designed to withstand extremely harsh environments. A glass fiber radome and IP68 rated waterproof exterior mean it is able to withstand heavy impacts as well as extreme weather conditions. A permanently fixed Gooseneck allows users to mount the antenna on radios or handheld/body-worn devices and position the antenna as they need or see fit. During active deployment, where the operator maybe standing or lying in prone position, the antenna can be bent to be vertical for optimum performance. It reduces impacts on the antenna and the radio to which it is attached by allowing the antenna to bend away from the point of impact. Cobham has a range of single band, spring and gooseneck mount alternatives available and would be happy to discuss bespoke development projects. New FPC Antennas for Small Devices in the 3G, 4G and LTE Bands Antenova Ltd has announced three flexible printed circuit antennas to cover the 3G, 4G and LTE bands. These new products are the company's first flexible antennas for 4G and LTE.
