MMDS (Wireless Cable)
2500 – 2700 MHz
Wireless Cable (also known as MMDS) systems are used
to distribute up to 31 channels of television programming
throughout a city or urban area.
KATHREIN offers a selection of 40 models of professional
transmitting antennas for Wireless Cable services, with a
choice of horizontal or vertical polarization, five different
horizontal radiation patterns and gain options to meet your
specific requirements.
All antennas are composed of similar dipole modules
housed in a robust GRP radome for weather protection.
The use of parallel-fed elements assures constant vertical
patterns across the full band and allows the use of beamtilt
and null fill to optimize coverage.
This new product line offers a number of advantages,
including:
● VSWR is 1.2:1 (or better) across full 200 MHz bandwidth.
● 1.2 kW input power rating is standard for all models.
● Full selection of patterns & gain to optimize coverage.
● Parallel feed system provides maximum stability.
● Electrical beamtilt and null fill for coverage enhancement.
● Designed for severe environments. No pressurization is
required.
● Superb performance and long-term reliability.
