UHF/L-Band Antenna – 9-33-14
UHF/L-Band Antenna – 9-33-14
The 9-33-14 is a high-strength, combined UHF and L-band blade antenna designed to provide communications in frequency bands 225 MHz to 400 MHz and 960 MHz to 1220 MHz. The antenna is capable of operating under extreme environmental conditions.
The 9-33-14 is configured as a notch antenna at L-band, and as a shunt fed monopole for UHF communications. The feed to the antenna is split to provide isolation between the UHF and L-band functions.
The antenna comprises a machined, aluminium alloy blade, with a high strength Kevlar trailing edge cover. The electrical circuitry is enclosed by an aluminium alloy baseplate with an integral filter assembly housing a TNC female and SC female connector. All cavities are foam filled to provide additional structural stability and to prevent ingress of moisture.
