800 MHz Yagi Antennas

The YB800 Series are high gain yagi antennas which provide excellent point to point communications in RF control, short or long haul link, point to multipoint and other applications calling for highly directional antennas. YB800 Series antennas exhibit narrow beamwidths and high front to back ratios to help minimise any potential interference to and from other systems.

The feed element of each antenna is of full folded dipole construction, welded to the mounting boom for maximum bandwidth, low intermodulation performance and reliability. The passive elements are through mounted to the circular boom section and welded at each side before plating. The alodine protective finish provides a conductive surface to ensure effective earthing of the antenna when mounting.

The YB800 Series are offered in 3, 6, 9, 15 or 20 element form and are generally held in stock for immediate delivery in the commercial bands.

YB800 Series antennas can be configured in stacks or bays for higher gain applications in either horizontally or vertically polarised systems. Application details on phasing and mounting yagi antennas are included in the technical notes section in the back of this catalogue.

YB800 Series rest at ground potential and provide excellent lightning protection and reduced precipitation static noise. Termination is via an 'N' female coaxial connector fitted to a short 9302 Durathene cable tail. Durathene is a PTFE dielectric and polyethylene jacketed cable providing superior resistance to weathering and abrasion and is less susceptible to bird attack than standard PVC sheathed cables.

• All welded construction for maximum and reliable performance

• Narrow beamwidth & high front to back ratios effective in reducing interference

• Standard units feature alodine finish providing an excellent conductive surface for earthing. Full stainless steel versions also available.

• Can be configured in stacks or bays for higher gain applications using PH and PHE series phasing harnesses

 

 
800MHz Broadband Yagi Antenna

The YBA818-82 is a highly directional antenna ideally suited for point to point communications in RF Control and Point to Multi-Point long haul link applications.

Both feed elements are constructed from a fully folded dipole welded to the boom, providing maximum bandwidth, excellent intermodulation performance and high reliability. The passive elements are thru mounted to the circular boom section which is fully welded to the mounting tube with a welded spacer between both booms before plating. The entire antenna is then plated in an alodine finish to provide an excellent conductive surface to ensure effective earthing of the antenna when it is mounted.

The YBA818-82 can be double stacked into a 4-boom array for additional gain by simply ordering two antennas and the PA84-82 stacking kit which includes 2 spacing control frames, two fibreglass upright supports and a two-way phasing harness for phasing both arrays together.
