Antennas used with ASB-3 cluster mount
Kathrein, Scala Division’s XPV 800MHz vertical/cross polarized panel antennas can now be used with the ASB-3 cluster mounting system. With the cluster mount, a complete three-sector, low visibility antenna system can be erected with a diameter of 18.1″. The neutral gray radomes can also be painted to further lessen visual impact. The product provides three antennas, one vertically polarized and one each polarized at +45° and -45°, in the same envelope as a single conventional antenna. The 90° sector antennas are available with 0°, 6° and 12° electrical downtilt. Mechanical downtilt is also an option. Bottom-mounted RF connectors are provided for each array to ease installation. One antenna per sector, rather than three, is required. Just one mounting system, rather than three, is needed. Installation and adjustment is simplified.
