Radiocommunications play an essential role in modern industry, securing workers' safety and allowing automated machine to machine communications for efficient control and monitoring. Reliable radio equipment is vital to the success of these industrial operations and is often critical to workers' safety in dangerous environments.

Amphenol Procom has produced a five-step guide which takes a purchaser through a five-step process of things to consider when choosing a Centre Fed Dipole, Yagi, or Stacked Array Antennas for base station applications.

AntennaPRO is pleased to introduce the CXL 2400-1/ Omnidirectional Base Station/Marine Antenna. The CXL 2400-1/ is a 0 dBd gain vertically polarized antenna that covers 2300-2700 MHz, making it ideal for maritime Wi-Fi radio networks. It can be used either as a gateway antenna or as a way of connecting your marine vessel to the harbour Wi-Fi network.

"Yacht" and "BOOTE" magazines have awarded Amphenol Procom's CXL-2-1L marine antenna as ‘Best on Test’ for maritime applications.

The CXL 900-8C is an 8dBd gain vertically polarized, omnidirectional base station antenna for the 900MHz cellular bands. Available in 2 models, the antenna is supplied with a "C" mast bracket, which is a universal, epoxy-coated mounting bracket made of non-corrosive aluminium. The accompanying U-bolts and fittings are made of stainless steel.

The 7478000 log periodic antenna is designed to cover LTE bands from 690-2700MHz which are generally used in rail and road tunnels to give coverage in dead spots.

Amphenol Procom has an extensive range of products for a wide variety of RF applications. Within the product range, are many "hidden gems" that you may not be aware of – an example is the DPF 70/6-150 series which we like to bring to your attention.

Commercial vehicles often have a box body that protrudes over the driver's cab. If a radio antenna is mounted on the driver's cab, the box body usually shades the radio waves to the rear.

With the increasing need to optimise usage of every antenna mast, more and more signals are being combined at the base station radio site. Fitting this large amount of combining/radio equipment into the available racking is a constant challenge for the radio installer/integrator.

Recent storms at the beginning of this year such as Storm Ciara battered the UK. Wind speeds above 80 mph caused a huge amount of structural damage throughout the country.
