DB411 OFFSET PATTERN ANTENNA 9 dB GAIN, 406-512 MHz


DB411 uses a 4-stack collinear array of folded dipole elements to provide high gain and constant performance over a broad offset horizontal pattern. Mounts to the top or side of a tower or structure.

Extremely Rugged - Resists wind to 125 mph (201 km/hr)
Broad Response - With 14 to 24 MHz bandwidth, this antenna is suitable for duplex operation.
Moisture Resistant - VAPOR-BLOC� cable harness provides weather protection and assures inphase signal distribution to all elements.
Key Applications - Ideal for mobile systems requiring additional gain over a sector or along a coast or area with geographical boundaries.

Sturdy Construction - Mast and elements are made of high strength aluminum alloys.
Lightning Resistant - Radiators operate at DC ground and the aluminum mast with its pointed top provides a low resistance discharge path to the tower or ground system.
Ordering Information - Use model number for correct frequency and specify termination if non-standard. DB365-OS Clamps are included. Order DB5012 Side Mount Kit if needed. Other size clamps can be special ordered. Example: DB411-B.
