Ever wondered what's inside a coaxial cable and how each layer ensures reliable transportation of RF signals? Despite their size and diameter, coaxial cable consists of five interconnected layers. Each layer serves it's own unique purpose and allows for reliable connectivity. Cabling is more complex than most anticipate, with each layer providing protection or support for one another.

When building an RF communication system, patience and attention to detail is key. Even the smallest misalignment in a system can have a much greater impact than you might expect. From choosing suitable components to overlooking important factors like antenna coverage and VSWR, getting the small details right matters. Connectivity leaves no room for error.

When we think about radio communication, the antenna is often the first thing that comes to mind. An antenna is part of a much larger, complex system full of technical components. Behind reliable radio communication are a range of these components working together - from radio equipment to cables, filters, and other RF components that connect everything.

A Distributed Antenna System (DAS) is a network of strategically separated antenna nodes connected to a common source that boosts wireless/cellular coverage. This common source is usually a main tower or base station antenna that receives the wireless signals.

Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) is a measurement of how effectively radio-frequency power is transferred between a transmitter and an antenna. It is the ratio of maximum to minimum voltage on a transmission line, with a good ratio helping to maximise an antenna’s performance and reduces the percentage of causing an impedance mismatch and power reflecting back to the source.

There are several things to consider before you source and purchase a marine antenna, with them having distinct features that a regular antenna may lack. Whilst our range of regular antennas are of the highest quality, they are not designed to withstand extreme and demanding marine conditions. Here are five reasons as to why Amphenol Procom’s marine antennas are the best solution for all maritime applications.

Noticed that our product packaging has changed? Ensuring our boxes are quick and easy to recycle was the driving force behind this change. At antennaPRO and Amphenol Procom, we are committed to making positive changes to our environment by minimising waste and maximising the amount of packaging that can be recycled.

Want to get the best performance from your router? Amphenol Procom has created the Router Match-up Guide, a new web tool that takes the guesswork out of finding the right antenna. In seconds, the guide pairs any supported router with the perfect antenna to give you a stronger signal, better coverage, and rock-solid reliability.

We're excited to announce the launch of the Amphenol Procom GNSS 2000, a next-generation upgrade of our trusted GPS 2000. This new model is more innovative, tougher and more versatile than ever before.

Amphenol Procom understands the importance of flexibility and reliability in RF system design in ground-to-air systems. The PRO-BCU 130 Balanced Combiner Solution is engineered to facilitate on-site channel expansion without the need to retune the existing setup.
