The RFI EA80-67-P is a UHF elliptical dipole array antenna that operates within the 400-520 MHz frequency range. With a 9 dBd gain, this antenna is designed to deliver superior performance for UHF applications, offering excellent signal strength and coverage. The EA series arrays provide exceptionally high gain with an elliptical shaped radiation pattern, ideal for the bi-directional coverage requirements of some "corridor" applications.
The EA80-67 arrays utilise an internal phasing harness using PIM rated PTFE based coaxial cable as well as custom dipole design to improve weatherproofing and resist bird attack. The main lobe of these antennas is strong and highly controlled with extensive side lobe suppression ensuring the integrity of the pattern. To further boost performance, users of the EA80 array may specify beamtilt of 0, -3 or -5 degrees. Superior performance is maintained over the entire operating bandwidth of the antenna (400-520 MHz). VSWR is maintained at <1.5:1 and input power levels of 500 watts are catered to for true high density site requirements. With all welded construction and superior internal harness construction (using highly stable PTFE based cables) the antennas provide not only excellent radiation characteristics but also high levels of intermodulation and noise suppression. IM performance is a world leading -150dBC based on a two carrier test. The entire array rests at ground potential and offers the ultimate in lightning resistant antennas.
