➊ TECHNICAL PERFORMANCE

• Low loss and high efﬁ ciency

• Azimuth pattern symmetry

• Wide bandwidth

➋ DESIGN

• Antennas mounted on a circular ground plane,

ﬁ tted with a standard SATIMO ﬂ ange

• The circular ground plane is made of a lightweight

aluminum foam composite for high structural

strength, low weight and easy handling

➌ REPEATABILITY

• Stiff and robust mechanical design

• Precision machined

• High reliability connector
