RFI CD17-27-50 VHF Ground Independent Mopole 77 - 85MHz - supplied with MBC Base

The CD17 Series are ground plane independent Mopole™ antennas which provide excellent performance in a “compromise” mounting position. The CD17 also provide an extended bandwidth in a physical arrangement which is ideal for every application from sedans to the heaviest industrial vehicles.

Features:

• Ground independent Mopole™ design allows installation in a variety of mounting locations
• Bandwidth of over 3MHz for VSWR <1.5:1 accommodates most duplex requirements
• High impedance matching transformer allows end feeding of electrical half wave element
• Shortened half wave radiators suit restricted height applications

Length:

Whip = 1500mm (whip + coil/mbc base total length = 1700mm)

NOTE:The CD17 is a highly compressed 1/2 wave antennas and although they function independently of a ground plane perform markedly better if earthed. Earthing via a gutter or mirror style bracket will ensure the best possible field performance.

RFI CD51-65-70 UHF Ground Independent Mopole 380 - 440 MHz - Threaded Stud

When the CD50-65-70 gets mounted on a vehicle gutter or similar position, these UHF MopolesTM provide optimum performance with a largely omnidirectional pattern. Due to the low angle of radiation inherent in the dipole antenna pattern, a 4.0 dB improvement in performance is typical when compared to a 3 wave whip in the centre of a metal roof.

The end fed design of the UHF MopolesTM incorporates a truly unique transformer in the base section. In this patented feed assembly, the dielectric of the coaxial feeder cable is trimmed to a set length and then introduced into the coil in termination. The result is a precisely matched feed which is so consistent that tuning to frequency from a chart becomes a matter of course.

CD51 antennas are fitted with a flexible nylon radome over a copper element - ideal in industrial applications. 

There are two styles of mounting arrangements offered. The CD50-xx-70 and CD51-xx-70 versions mount via a threaded stud and nut assembly. The antenna can be easily terminated, tuned and re-terminated in the field using the instructions supplied. Its patented design allows the coaxial cable to be replaced in the field without specialised tools or soldering.

The CD50-xx-50 and CD51-xx-50 versions mate with the MBC coaxial base providing an internal, permanent connection in a completely sealed unit. The MBC base is easy to install and allows the entire antenna to be removed and replaced at will.

Notes: In order to boost radio signal the following components are required:  Antenna, antenna mount, booster and cable.  The antenna and booster must operate in the frequency band of the signal. Signal cable feeds signal from antenna to booster.

Features:

• Versatile - Ground plane independence allows alternative mounting locations
• Performance - High performance and largely omni-directional pattern when not centre roof mounted
• Convenient - Patented design allows termination or retermination in seconds
• Stainless steel whip or flexible nylon whips cater to individual needs
• Durable - Base coil is virtually indestructible
• Unique transformer design
• Australian Patents #596830 and #656793

(1) Mopole™ antennas such as the CD50 and CD51 exhibit a 4dB improvement in performance over a ¼ wave whip but in pattern tests deliver only 2.0 to 2.5dB of actual gain. This improvement in performance can be attributed to a lower angle of radiation and is of particular benefit to users in rugged terrain conditions and in heavily built up city areas.
(2) Available preterminated with 5m 8058 RG58C/U. Use -73 or -53 suffix to replace -70 or -50 suffix.

RFI UHF CB (477 MHz) Mopole Antenna - MBC Mount 

The CD63 Series Mopole™ antennas offer complete versatility in mounting options. Unlike conventional roof mount antennas the CD63 Series antennas have true ground independence which allows mounting in a variety of positions including vehicle mirror gutter or roof bar mounts.

Features:

This extraordinary performance is made possible by the use of an exclusive (and patented) high impedance matching circuit in the base coil. This allows the end feeding of the collinear whip section a 5/8 over 1/2 wave radiator wound from a single piece of high resilience 17-7PH stainless steel.

(1) Mopole antennas such as the CD63 have been shown to exhibit a 6dB improvement in received signal level in the field when compared to a ¼ wave whip however in pattern tests exhibit only 1.5 to 2dB over a ¼ wave (equivalent to 1.5-2dBq). This improvement in performance can be attributed to a lower radiation angle level of these ground independent antennas

RFI CD7194-B 4G LTE Cellular Mobile Antenna 698-960 & 1710-2700MHz (All Black) 655mm

With a 13mm stud mount on a heavy duty black chrome stainless steel spring, the CD7194 Series can be installed on a number of mounting brackets and are ideal for installations in
commercial vehicles, four wheel drives and trucks.

Notes: In order to boost radio signal the following components are required:  Antenna, antenna mount, booster and cable.  The antenna and booster must operate in the frequency band of the signal. Signal cable feeds signal from antenna to booster.

Features:
• Patented PCB based collinear design offering the ultimate in pattern and gain stability
• Ideal for all new 4G LTE networks with true multi-band coverage
• High gain across all bands making it suiting fringe and rural applications

Specifications:

Features:

• Multiband 700-2700MHz
• Cutting edge printed circuit board design
• Supplied with 5m low loss coaxial cable, with female FME connector.

The evolution continues with the release of the CD7195 4G LTE cellular mobile antenna. In response to the lightning fast roll-out of Telstra 4GX and Optus 4G+ services nation wide, Telco approached RFI to design a vehicle mounted antenna capable of operating on the new 700MHz LTE network. Part of the challenge was also to improve gain on regular 1800MHz 4G services, and provide some operation on the new 2600MHz network to ensure the antenna would remain futureproof for Cat-11 LTE devices capable of providing 450-600Mbps by aggregating 700+1800+2600MHz bands together.

The secret to it’s outstanding performance lies in the use of the patented Meander™ radiating elements. These Meander™ circuits are coupled together to deliver extraordinary consistency in gain, coverage pattern and bandwidth. The result is a unique antenna able to operate across all mobile phone networks globally, housed in the one unit.

The CD7195 provides an impressive 6.5dBi gain on lower bands such as 3G, Next-G, and 4GX, as well as a modest 4.5dBi gain on regular 4G bands. It's important to note this antenna does not provide MIMO, if you require the best possible Internet performance you should use two antennas, separated by around 300mm.

Notes: In order to boost radio signal the following components are required:  Antenna, antenna mount, booster and cable.  The antenna and booster must operate in the frequency band of the signal. Signal cable feeds signal from antenna to booster.
