AW DUAL-BAND ACTIVE LPDA ANTENNA LPDA-A-DB 470-1260MHz in Bands inc. UK DME and Japan Bands - IN STOCK
Product Details
Brand: Audio Wireless

Dual-Band filtering is an advanced unique design only passing wanted signals within the selected filter. This provides a greater operating frequency range and protects the receivers against interfering signals and unwanted dirty RF, maintains robust RF reception.

This Dual-Band LPDA Active antenna is custom designed for UK and Japanese frequency ranges to cover lower UHF Band and available Upper UHF Bands.


KEY FEATURES:

  • Active Dual-Band LPDA with 20dB gain
  • UK Dual-Band: 470-700MHz and 960-1164MHz
  • Japanese Dual-Bands: 470-714MHz/806-810MHz and 470-714MHz/1240-1260MHz
  • Selectable 3-Mode operation
  • May be used as an Active, Passive Receive or Transmit
  • No dc- Passive Mode with ultra-wide band 470-1260MHz
  • Extremely high dynamic range RF amplifiers
  • Input high selective Band Pass filtering
  • User adjustable Booster Gain in 1dB steps
  • Intuitive OLED display menu
  • Powered through coax cable
  • Integrated mount adaptor
  • CNC machined custom design

Dual-Band Active Log Periodic Dipole Array antenna LPDA-A-DB is designed to operate over the 470-1260MHz range (in Bands), the LPDA-A-DB consisting of two sections: LPDA-P passive antenna and an Active Dual-Band, Band-Pass Filter Antenna Booster sections, the user selectable front-end filtering determines the operating frequency range of the LPDA-A-DB.

The Dual-Band - LPDA-A-DB may be used in Active or Passive Mode to suit individual applications:

Active Mode (when powered through the coax-cable)

MODE 1: User selectable Lower UHF Band ONLY

MODE 2: User selectable Upper UHF Band ONLY

MODE 3: Both “Band-Pass Filters” are ON (active) at the same time (excellent “Band Rejection” between Lower and Upper Bands)

Passive Mode (when there is no dc present) can be used as a High Gain Passive

antenna to receive or to transmit with passive 5dB Gain

This unique design has an exceptionally low loss and a very selective front-end Band-pass filters with fixed bandwidth between 470-700MHz and 960-1164MHz (for UK DME Band). The RF Amplifiers offers a high dynamic range, very low noise, and linear gain within the tuning range.

The LPDA-A-DB offers flexibility as well as additional front-end protection against interfering dirty RF, the booster offers 20dB user adjustable gain to compensate long antenna extension cable losses hence increased distance between the transmitter and the receiver, LPDA-A-DB finds its application in film making, documentaries, fixed installations as in studios, and theatres. Compatible with any UHF wireless receiving systems (Digital, Digital hybrid or Analogue) providing a directional coverage pattern.

The antennae constructed using advanced multi-layer PCB design technique with copper-clad epoxy fiberglass to withstand heavy duty use in harsh environments, providing long life and consistent performance under difficult operating conditions. The booster box is a custom-design machined aluminum, black anodized with water resistant O-ring mounting. Mounting is made easy with integrated thread that directly mounts on to a tripod or with the supplied adaptor can be mounted directly on to a microphone stand. Powering is through coaxial cable, power source of 10-18Vdc.
