Audio Wireless Active Log Periodic Dipole Array Antenna (LPDA-WB-A)

The LPDA-A-WB may be used in an Active or Passive Mode to suit individual applications: Active Mode with fixed Bandwidth in the 470-960MHz range (custom tuned in Bands) with user adjustable gain of 18dB Passive Mode (when there is no dc present) can be used as a High Gain, passive antenna to receive or to transmit within the in-built filtering filter range, passive gain boasting 5dB. KEY FEATURES: Active LPDA with user adjustable Booster Gain of 18dB Use as an Active, Passive “Receive/Transmit” Mode No dc- Passive Mode with in-built Band-Pass filtering Extremely high dynamic range RF amplifier Custom Tuned Input high selectivity Band Pass filter in Bands between 470-960MHz Intuitive OLED display menu Powered through coax cable Integrated mount adaptor CNC machined custom design This unique design has an exceptionally low loss and a very selective Band-pass filter with fixed bandwidth. The LPDA-A-WB V2 offers flexibility as well as additional front-end protection against interfering dirty RF, the booster offers 18dB user adjustable gain to compensate long antenna extension cable losses hence increased distance between the transmitter and the receiver, LPDA-A-WB finds its application in film making, documentaries, fixed installations as in studios, and theatres. Compatible with any UHF wireless receiving systems (Digital or Analogue) providing a directional coverage pattern. The antennae are 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 it can be mounted directly on to a microphone stand. Powering is through coaxial cable, power source of 10-18Vdc. Active Mode Frequency Range 470 to 960MHz with in-built Band Pass Filter Available Bandwidths to order 470-700MHz, 470-608MHz, 470-663MHz, 470-865MHz, 470-938MHz, 470-960MHz Booster Gain 18dB (user adjustable in 1.0dB steps) Selectivity (Based on 470-960MHz Band) -38dB@420MHz and -30dB@10750MHz min.
