The 1032-041 from Southwest Antennas is an omni-directional bifilar antenna that operates from 4.4 to 5.9 GHz. It delivers a gain of 3.75 dBic and can handle an input power of up to 20 watts. The antenna's bifilar design and left hand circular polarization (LHCP) make it ideal for communication with overhead aircraft or UAVs due to the lack of keyhole null in the antenna's radiation pattern. It has a rugged Ultra-Flex sealed spring base, allowing the antenna to bend and flex upon impact, reducing the risk of damage to the mated RF connector. The sealed spring allows for operation in all environments, keeping the spring free of rain, dust, dirt, mud, sand, or other contaminants.
