If you install Amphenol Procom antennas in the maritime environment, you may consider looking further into the MariFix barrel spring. This spring is an ideal addition to Amphenol Procom marine antennas that operate in hostile weather conditions at sea.

Simply put, a combining system places multiple transmit (Tx) and receive (Rx) signals onto a single common port. Within a combining system, a Tx combiner gathers all transmit signals together onto a single output port whilst a Receive Multicoupler will take incoming signals and split them to feed multiple receivers. If the Tx output and Rx input are both fed into the Tx and Rx ports on a duplexer then the resulting common (Ant) port carries both signals to/from a single antenna creating a multi-channel RF combining system.

antennaPRO, UK distributor for Amphenol Procom, will showcase its latest connectivity products at BAPCO 2023 between the 7th -8th March 2023 at the Coventry Building Society Arena. On show will be samples of its extensive range of antenna, duplexer, combiner and filtering solutions from Amphenol Procom.

PIM stands for Passive Intermodulation which means an unwanted signal created by the mixing of two or more RF signals, caused by the nonlinearity of the passive components in the RF path such as antennas, filters, cables or connectors. The signals will mix or multiply with each other to generate other signals that are related to the first ones. PIM can occur in a variety of areas from coaxial connectors to cables, even rusty bolts or any joint where dissimilar metals occur.

As the official distributor for Amphenol Procom products in the UK and Southern Ireland we can source a vast range of filtering equipment including duplex filters, band pass filters, band reject filters, pass reject filters, low pass filters, diplexers and triplexers.

In a perfect world, RF filtering equipment would not exist as radio equipment would transmit/receive the desired signal perfectly. However this is far from a reality as radio equipment, generally built to high standards, has certain tolerances and limitations meaning that other out-of-band signals can be transmitted or received. If such signals are left unchecked, there is a good chance that someone somewhere could be affected (even on your own system), creating a loss of performance. It is the role of RF filters to help eliminate these unwanted signals and to provide optimum performance for your radio system.

Offshore or maritime operations need reliable radio equipment to secure safety, productivity, and efficiency.

If you are looking for RF Filters for PMR/DMR/dPMR and telemetry networks, then you should consider our DPBP 2/66-150.

The extended TETRA band (low 380-386,5 MHz/High 390-396,5 MHz) has been introduced in some European countries. The extension of the band is a result of increasing demand for more TETRA channels working at the same time, especially in the bigger cities.

Amphenol Procom’s highly versatile ProConnect mobile and fixed wireless antenna have been developed for a range of modern applications such as in smart cities, smart industry, smart utilities, intelligent fleet management, public transport, automatic guided vehicles, autonomous mobile robots offering coverage for 4G, 5G, WiFi-6(E) and GNSS. ProConnect is the SISO version, and ProConnect is the MIMO variant.
