The 1065-029 from Southwest Antennas is LHCP directional patch antenna that is designed to be light weight and easily worn and hidden in tactical clothing such as vests or MOLLE gear. This body worn antenna is ideal for use in multi-antenna MIMO / MANET radio applications such as handheld and small form factor body worn tactical radios.
The antenna operates from 2.1 to 2.5 GHz with a gain of up to 4.2 dBic making it ideal for use in the DHS/DOJ licensed radio spectrum while also offering excellent performance in the 2.4 GHz ISM band. Extensive field testing has shown that these antennas provides superior RF performance, ensure long range radio communication links, and provide high data rate throughput when used with MANET / MIMO self-forming, self-healing radio networks, or SISO radio systems.
This antenna features a high performance stainless steel SMA(f) RF connector and waterproof, UV stable radome that can withstand immersion in 20-meters (65.6 ft.) of salt water for two hours if the RF connector is mated or sealed with a protective end cap.
