Fractal Launches Antenna For Wideband Performance

Fractal Launches Antenna For Wideband Performance
Bedford, MA -- The new UAB 226G bicone antenna from Fractal Antenna Systems provides wideband and omni-directional performance for signal gathering and high power transmission. The UAB 226G is about one-quarter the size of a conventional antenna, and comes in a compact, rugged package.

The UAB 226G offers a combination of size, bandwidth, and gain. The inherent qualities of fractals enable the UAB 226G to be packaged in a smaller size than conventional antennas. Plus, the UAB operates over a wide 25:1+ range of frequency, from UHF to microwave.

Vehicle and mast-mounted versions of the UAB 226G antenna are ruggedly built, from the base to internal components to the radome. The antenna has been field-proven and operates in environments with or without a ground plane.

The new UAB 226G antenna is available for both commercial and defense applications and can be adapted for vehicle, marine, or fixed use. Sealed in a radome that is 7.7 inches in diameter and 10 inches high, the UAB weighs only 4.8 pounds and is available in an optional watertight vehicle mounting kit. Standard input power is 100W; a high-power version of up to 250W is also available.
