Digital Microwave Radio Antenna Solutions



Introduction

Radio Waves is a proven supplier of innovative, high quality, competitively priced microwave antennas. Radio Waves was founded in 1983 and manufactures antennas for Internet Service Providers, cellular/GSM base station interconnects, campus environments and private networks. Radio Waves manufacture their products from its Billerica, Massachusetts headquarters and also has a assembly facility in the United Kingdom to service the European and African markets.

Radio Waves are the recommended supplier of antenna for the CODAN 8800 series digital microwave radio.

Features and Benefits

Radio Waves manufacture the Proline family of antenna integrating directly to the CODAN 8800 Outdoor Unit for all commonly used antenna up to and including 1.8meters in diameter. Integrating directly to the ODU means that expensive flexible waveguide is not required for connection to the antenna thus providing a significant cost saving. If required a full range of standard mount (using a flexible waveguide) is also available through CODAN.

The High Performance Covered Antenna is the Radio Wave antenna selected by CODAN due to the superior Radiation Pattern Envelope (RPE) performance and the ability to reduce interference. The High Performance antenna is manufactured of spun aluminum to precise tolerances with an integral rim for enhanced reflector structural integrity. The Shroud is also manufactured using aluminum fitted with a planar radome to protect the Cassegrain feed and reduce wind-loading stresses applied to the tower structure.

The antenna mounts to a 114mm pole mount for all versions while the smaller antenna (03. and 0.6 meters) can be mounted onto smaller pole mounts if required. Smaller antenna will mount onto 51mm to 114mm pole mounts. The antenna mount is manufactured of hot dipped galvanized steel with azimuth and elevation adjustments.
