BNC Spider Remote Antenna Dual-Band VHF/UHF for Motorola Radios, 10m Cable, R7 Adapter

Description

The Spider antenna is designed to enhance reception and transmission of portable radio signals, resulting in improved quality and range of communication. This is achieved by elevating the antenna (5-15 meters high), which increases the direct line of radio communication for reception and consequently improves the received signal, similarly for the transmission signal direction. The effective operating bandwidth of the antenna is approximately 12-14 MHz.

The antenna is designed to meet the requirements of and for use by military and law enforcement agencies, made with flexible elements that allow it to be folded during movement or active operations. It has proven excellent performance in field conditions during combat missions in various weather conditions, in challenging terrain (elevation changes), dense forests, etc. It significantly (2-3 times) increases the radio communication range for portable radios from various manufacturers.

The antenna can be suspended at any height (building roofs, trees, poles, towers, etc.). It is convenient to use when radio communication needs to be established from cover (dugouts, trenches, foxholes, basements, etc.); in this case, the antenna is deployed outside, thereby ensuring both personnel safety and reliable communication.
