Antenex® Phantom® Antennas 11/02 Antenex Antennas - Only Now the Story Can be Told Antenex, Inc. reports their antennas are being used in support of Operation Enduring Freedom by the US Army Space Program. The patented Antenex Phantom technology survived in these extremely harsh environmental conditions for over a year in hundreds of installations on Army helicopters, including the Apache, as well as various armored vehicles. Phantom technology is available in many standard Antenex products for mobile police data terminals, fixed station meter reading, NASCAR racing and general mobile radio applications. This same Phantom technology was chosen by the United States Army Space Program Office for use with its Grenadier BRAT tracking system which was fielded in October 2001. Antenex Phantoms accompanied the first Special Operations Forces acting in support of Operation Enduring Freedom. The antenna was chosen because it combines whipless low profile with field diversity and gain. Low profile permits rugged mechanical formats and the field diversity counteracts signal reflection and multi-path radiation in difficult RF environments. Phantom field diversity is a definite plus for helicopter operations given the continual changes in antenna orientation. Antenex and its OEM Team developed this custom Phantom antenna solution for the US Army Space Program in conjunction with several major defense contractors specifically for use in the Grenadier BRAT system. This beyond line of sight reporting and tracking system employs the most advanced wireless encryption, GPS, and spread spectrum technologies. It gives field commanders the ability to track and communicate with friendly forces deep on the battlefield with minimum possibility of interception or detection. Antenex, Inc. works with customers in a wide range of industries to provide antenna solutions. Its OEM Team draws on in-house capabilities in RF design, CNC machining, injection molding, and PC board design to rapidly develop antenna prototypes. Antenex’ rapid prototype response permits its customers to meet challenging RF project objectives within specification and on time. Antenex Yagi line for 2002 09/02 Antenex® announces a new line of full featured internally matched Yagis Antenex® announces a new line of full featured internally matched Yagis. The new design features an end-of-boom N connector feed with an internal transmission line feeding the driven element. Internal matching achieves broad bandwidth and is highly weather resistant. There is no gamma match to ice up, corrode or detune. The gold fully welded Antenex® Yagi antennas feature 360-degree welds around each element and are fully gold anodized for corrosion resistance. Our engineering staff has also optimized the product family for forward gain by computer analysis and then field-tested each for conformance. Don’t forget, each Yagi is hand tuned on a network analyzer for best power match and lowest VSWR. This is your assurance of the best possible performance every time. Each Yagi also ships complete with a high quality cast aluminum mounting kit that includes stainless steel hardware and allows vertical or horizontal orientation during install. Antenex® also offers precision cable assemblies to complete the job. Whether your installation calls for the super high durability of a fully welded Yagi or the lower cost, yet very high durability of a silver series Yagi, Antenex® is the correct choice for your demanding application.

TOP The MABVT8 Thick Mount 08/02 Antenex® introduces a new thick mount Antenex® has a new thick mount for Panel Trucks, Ambulances, Busses and other challenging thick walled installations. The MABVT8 will mount in material with thicknesses ranging from .032" to .500" and works in 3/4" or 3/8" mounting configurations. Featuring a Stainless Steel Piercing 10 point collar nut, all brass construction utilizing a brass alloy with a Rockwell® 78 hardness, and milled flats on the retainer ring for more positive mounting, the mount is extremely durable and reliable. Silver Soldered Joints, a crimped and soldered ground lug, and Low Loss Delrin® coaxial insulator components make this a very reliable mount. All Antenex® mounts are 100% continuity and resistance tested. Each mount is constructed with the standard Antenex® small high performance center contact. The Antenex® MABVT8 thick mount will work with any frequency up to 1000 MHz and comes standard with 17 feet of Antenex® coax cable. Custom configurations are also available.

This dual band antenna features the patented Phantom design in a 900MHz frequency featuring low visibility, wide bandwidth and a low angle radiation pattern that is superior to traditional gain antennas in most applications. The GPS that is mounted inside the ABS molded housing with the Phantom antenna features an active 27dB LNA. The housing comes with the industry standard MNO mount and attaches with the supplied locking washer and bolts. The revolutionary patented whipless low profile design of the Phantom antenna means they do not look like antennas, attract less attention, help prevent vandalism, and have lower wind resistance. The Phantom antenna’s unique design means that the antenna is simultaneously sensitive to both the electric and magnetic fields of the signal -- like having two antennas. This makes the antenna resistant to the picket-fence fading and multipath nulls that are found in urban operation and undulating mobile environments. The VHF Phantom picks up voice and data communications near buildings where a whip antenna will not. Click here for more information. TOP Antenex® and Motorola Join Forces® antennas. 02/02 Motorola to Add Low Profile Phantom® Antennas to Its Product Line Motorola expands their antenna product portfolio to include Phantom® antennas. The Phantom® antenna, which is manufactured by Antenex®, has a revolutionary design that features field diversity with both vertical and horizontal polarization components. This gives the antenna polarization diversity, frequency agility, low visibility, wide bandwidth and a low angle radiation pattern that is superior to traditional gain antennas in many applications. The Phantom® patented technology is beneficial when high performance is desired and extreme ruggedness and low profile are required. “The Antenex® product philosophy of superb electrical performance combined with excellent mechanical features fits with Motorola’s well-known high quality standards.
