Skyware Global Type 183 C-Band 1.8M Circular Polarized Tx/RX Class III Antenna
Easy mounting of all popular C-Band SSPAs and Block Upconverters, corrosion resistant hardware for harsh environmental conditions
Type 183 C-Band Transmit Receive Antenna
The Skyware Global 1.8M Type 183 C-Band Tx/Rx Offset Antenna is a rugged commercial grade product suitable for the most demanding VSAT applications. The reflector is thermoset-molded for strength and surface accuracy. Molded into the rear of the reflector is a network of support ribs which not only strengthens the antenna, but also helps to sustain its critical parabolic shape. This ensures outstanding RF performance for transmit and receive applications such as iDirect internet service and remote satellite broadband applications.
Rugged Reflector Mount
The Type 183 C-Band Az/EI mount is constructed from heavy-gauge steel to provide a rigid support to the reflector. The Az/EI mount secures the antenna to either a 60 mm 12.38"] or 73-76 mm 12.88"-3.00") 0.D. mast and prevents slippage in high winds.
Corrosion Proof Antenna Backstructure
A specially formulated powder paint process offers excellent protection from weather-related corrosion.
