The AWD-500-2000 engineering emphasizes its "Ultra-Wideband" capability and "Heavy-Duty" construction. Since this antenna covers a massive range (500-2000 MHz), it is positioned as a mission-critical asset for ground-to-air and maritime communications.
Logistics: Rapid Field Assembly & Compact Shipping
The AWD-500-2000 is engineered for logistics efficiency without compromising on structural integrity. Featuring a Removable Element Design, the cone and disc components can be detached for compact packaging, significantly lowering international shipping costs and protecting the unit during transit. Once on-site, the antenna’s intuitive design allows for a 5-minute field assembly without the need for specialized tools. This makes it an ideal choice for rapid-response teams and tactical base stations requiring immediate, high-performance deployment.
Durability: Heavy Duty & Severe Environment Protection
Designed to survive where conventional antennas fail, the AWD-500-2000 features a Heavy-Duty Construction housed in a Military Olive Green powder-coated finish. This specialized coating, combined with 6063T6 architectural-grade aluminum and Type 316 marine-grade stainless steel hardware, provides total immunity to salt spray, acid rain, and desert sandstorms. By enclosing the antenna termination and feed cable within the mounting pipe, the system ensures 100% weather protection for the RF connection, preventing the corrosion that typically plagues coastal and offshore installations.
Efficiency: The Ultra-Wideband Single-Antenna Solution
Maximize your operational footprint with a Single-Antenna Solution that covers the entire 500-2000 MHz spectrum. The AWD-500-2000 boasts a wide vertical beam-width and low VSWR across its entire range, making it exceptionally efficient for ground-to-ground, maritime, and ground-to-air applications. This broad frequency agility allows a single base station to handle multiple communication bands simultaneously, reducing tower clutter and wind loading while meeting the rigorous demands of modern spectrum monitoring and high-power transmission.

Design Features: AWD-500-2000 wide band discone antenna is specially designed for omni-directional coverage. Due to its low VSWR through entire band from 500-2000 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 wide band discone antenna when packed comes with cone and disc elements removed from the antenna body for ease of packing and shipment.
