ARW-2400-2700-10 directional antenna
LPRS has introduced the ARW-2400-2700-10 directional antenna for Wimax and Wi-Fi applications.
Operating in the 2.4-2.7GHz frequency band, the ARW-2400-2700-10 antenna meets the existing requirements of wireless communications infrastructure and 3G communications operators, and is also designed to meet the needs of 4G systems as they become available from 2014.
Major deployment of Wimax is set to roll out in the UK once Ofcom makes available the 2.6GHz spectrum.
Developments taking place in the Wimax 2.4-2.7GHz frequency band include systems intended to expand network capacity, lower operating costs, reduce energy consumption and increase connectivity by deploying a mesh of multi-frequency, multi-standard low-power communications devices that can be mounted on buildings, poles or wherever there is power and a broadband connection.
The LPRS ARW-2400-2700-10 antenna has a frequency range of 2,400-2,700MHz, has an operating temperature range of -40 to 60C, measures 140 x 120 x 20mm and weighs 600g.
