These antennas require no ground plane for operation.
This makes them ideal for use with portable devices or
products with no substantial ground plane. They can even
be used with products that consist of all plastic chassis or
case.
The ELPSKN Series antennas use a full length centre fed
dipole configuration. A knuckle feature allows the antenna
to be adjusted between a straight position, to a 90° right
angle position. This is useful for products that may need to
be placed both horizontal and vertical, or where the
connector is placed both horizontal and vertical, or where
the connector is placed on the side of a radio device.
Maximum radiation is achieved along the horizon, and
bandwidth provided is substantial. VSWR is typically 2:1 or
better over the desired frequency range. The antennas are
available in many popular frequency bands.
The radome is made of flexible Polyurethane. Standard
connector styles available includeTNCor SMA.
