WiNRADiO AX-37E Planar Log-Periodic Antenna

WiNRADiO AX-37E Planar Log-Periodic Antenna

The AX-37E antenna is a compact, planar log-periodic UHF directional antenna with an in-built 20 dB low-noise amplifier. The antenna is suitable for wireless networking and point-to-point communications where its directional characteristics can significantly improve rejection of interfering signals, as well as for monitoring and surveillance applications.

The AX-37E antenna is encapsulated in a ruggedized weather-proof enclosure suitable for permanent outdoor installations.

The antenna covers a frequency range of 300 to 3000 MHz (a much wider frequency range can be received with reduced gain).

While designed to be entirely general-purpose and performing well with any third-party equipment, the WiNRADiO AX-37E planar log-periodic antenna is especially suitable for WiNRADiO 3000 Series of receivers, such as the WR-3700e receiver.
