Description

Active Omnidirectional Receiving Antenna
Key facts
  • 20 MHz to 3000 MHz
  • Good reception results in a compact size The broadband Active Receiving Antenna R&S®HE 500 has been designed as a monitoring antenna for vertical polarization and omnidirectional reception in the frequency range from 20 MHz to 3 GHz. The antenna is characterized by compact design and low weight. It is therefore ideal for use in mobile systems and environments where space is at a premium. A sturdy, composite radome protects the antenna and its electronics against effects of weather and high wind speeds.
