APXV18-203219-C-A20
Optimizer® Cross Polarized Broadband Antenna, 1695-2200, 32deg, 21dBi, 1.3m, VET, 0-10deg RET

Rev : H | Rev date : 23 Feb 2021


This variable tilt antenna provides exceptional suppression of all upper sidelobes at all downtilt angles. It is ideal for 3G, 4G, GSM, CDMA and Mobile TV networks where high gain is required.

FEATURES / BENEFITS

  • Variable electrical downtilt — provides enhanced precision in controlling intercell interference. The tilt is infield adjustable 0-10 deg.
  • Includes (1) AISG 2.0 Compatible ACU-A20-S antenna control unit.
  • Excellent upper sidelobe suppression — allows strong mechanical tilt
  • Optional remote tilt — can be retrofitted
  • High front-to-back ratio
  • Rugged construction — high reliability
  • Broadband design
  • Dual polarization
  • Low profile — enables low visual impact
