The AWD-30-2000 design strategy focuses on its incredible frequency agility, spanning the entire spectrum from 30 MHz to 2000 MHz. This "Master" wideband antenna is positioned as a critical asset for high-level spectrum monitoring, electronic warfare, and unified base station communications.

Logistics: Compact Transport & Rapid Tactical Setup

The AWD-30-2000 is designed to maximize operational readiness while minimizing logistical footprints. Featuring a Removable Element Design, the cone and disc rods can be detached from the main hub for streamlined packing and cost-effective international shipping. Its compact overall size allows for easy handling by a single operator, and the specially engineered mounting hardware ensures a fast, tool-free installation. This design is ideal for rapid-response units that need to establish broad-spectrum communication links in minutes.

Durability: Advanced Material Engineering

Constructed for ultimate longevity, the AWD-30-2000 utilizes 6063T6 ultra-corrosion-resistant architectural anodized aluminum alloy. To survive the most severe environmental conditions—from high-salt coastal air to intense desert UV—the antenna is finished with a specialized epoxy-based olive green powder coating. Reliability is reinforced by the use of marine-grade stainless steel fasteners and an internal feed system where the antenna termination and cable are enclosed within the mounting pipe, providing 100% weather protection.

Efficiency: The Ultimate 30-2000 MHz Solution

The AWD-30-2000 provides a definitive Single-Antenna Solution for the entire range from 30 MHz up to 2 GHz. By maintaining a low VSWR across this massive bandwidth, it eliminates the need for multiple antennas and complex switching systems on a single tower. This high-efficiency design is perfectly suited for spectrum monitoring, signal jamming, and high-power transmitting, offering a stable omni-directional horizontal pattern that ensures reliable ground-to-ground and ground-to-air connectivity.

Design Features: AWD-30-2000 discone antenna is specially designed for Omni directional coverage. Due to it’s low VSWR through entire band from 30-2000 MHz., this discone antenna can be used as a transmitting and receiving antenna with high efficiency, to meet the broadband requirement of a base station antenna such as spectrum monitoring or Jamming application. The Discone antenna when packed, comes with Cone and Disc elements removed from the antenna body for ease of packing and shipment.

Construction: AWD-30-2000 wideband discone antenna is rugged all weather model, does not require any field tuning or adjustments. The compact size of discone antenna allows easy handling and specially designed mounting hardware results in fast installation. The cone and disc hubs of wide band discone antennas are made of high quality aluminum and all fasteners are of marine grade stainless steel. Discone Antenna termination and feed cable lie enclosed inside the mounting pipe for complete weather protection. The antenna is supplied with powder coating finish to protect it further from sever environmental conditions.
