CD6-470-860: High-Gain Wideband Omni-Directional Coaxial Dipole Antenna

The CD6-470-860 is a professional-grade, wideband omni-directional antenna designed for high-performance transmitting and receiving across the 470–860 MHz spectrum. This coaxial dipole antenna is engineered for versatility, offering a single-antenna solution for fixed stations, shipboard mounting, and mobile applications. Its rugged, all-weather design ensures stable communication without the need for multiple narrowband antennas.

Design and Versatility

The CD6-470-860 features a sophisticated coaxial dipole design that provides a consistent 360-degree horizontal radiation pattern. Enclosed in a UV-resistant ABS radome, the antenna is aerodynamically optimized for low wind loading and to minimize the impact of ice formation. Its compact, sturdy profile makes it an excellent choice for maritime environments and tactical mobile setups where space is limited but high-gain performance is non-negotiable.

Precision Fabrication

Constructed using 6063T6 ultra-corrosion-resistant architectural aluminum alloy, the internal radiating elements are vertically stacked to maximize gain. The antenna uses a specialized center-fed design to ensure a smooth VSWR and consistent performance across the entire frequency band. To protect against the harshest environments, the antenna is supplied with marine-grade stainless steel mounting hardware and finished in a durable olive green coating. The N-Female termination is located at the bottom of the mounting pipe, ensuring the connection remains completely shielded from weather.

Optimized Performance

With a constant 6 dBi gain and a vertical beam-width of 36 degrees, the CD6-470-860 delivers high-efficiency signal projection. It is capable of handling up to 500 Watts of RF power, making it suitable for high-capacity base stations and long-range communication links. The antenna is factory-tuned and requires no field adjustments, providing a true "plug-and-play" experience for mission-critical UHF applications.
