DAM 6.0-O Dual Antenna Mast

The Dual Antenna Mast DAM 6.0-O is designed for use in open area test sites. Included guy wires, anchoring pins and protection cover ensure an operation of wind speeds up to 60 km/h. The antenna mast, with the exception of the drive unit, is fabricated from plastic (PVC and reinforced fibreglass). Metal parts are located only in the base plate and the drive mechanism (max. 0.3 m above ground level).

Antenna Adapters for all commercially available antennas are available upon request.

All antennas during polarization rotate around their axis to eliminate any elevation errors.

The LAN (TCP/IP) - interface provides an additional control option for all functions, when operated with the FCU 3.0 or NCD Controller.
