Pharad Releases Tactical Gooseneck Antennas
Pharad, LLC, introduced a full series of tactical gooseneck antennas recently. The seven new antenna models provide operational bandwidths from 800 to 6000 MHz exhibiting a VSWR of less than 2:1 for most systems.
The Pharad gooseneck antenna mount design allows users to pass directly beneath overhead objects without impediment or injury. The antennas are completely passive, include no loading elements, and require no tuning or adjustments. In addition, the gooseneck base allows users to adjust the antenna position for maximum comfort and link performance.
"With the launch of our gooseneck antenna line, Pharad has an opportunity to make significant breakthroughs in our development of man-pack antennas," said company president Austin Farnham. "The gooseneck antenna design not only helps us meet the demands of our customers, but also meets the ever increasing demands of the field."
Pharad's gooseneck products support a diverse range of applications including GSM Quadband, Electronic Warfare, UAV Communications, and WLAN, ISM. Our series offer broadband omni-directional antennas, SATCOM antennas, and gooseneck extensions that convert your existing antennas into a flexible, user friendly antenna configuration.
In addition to the seven new antennas, Pharad offers custom engineered solutions that conform to your exact specifications. Pharad offers the antenna with various mounting configurations, alternate RF connectors, and can even supply multiple radiator elements within a single housing. Custom antennas can be engineered to specific radiation requirements as may be required for dismounted Electronic Warfare applications, round to ground communications, ground to air communications, or SATCOM applications.
