Lectrosonics ACOAXTX 36-Inch Coaxial Antenna with SMA Connector, Block 26

This coaxial design is approximately 36 inches in overall length, with an SMA connector. The other end is cut to a 1/4 wavelength of the corresponding frequency block with a color band and tag specifying its block. It is especially useful for applications where a small remote antenna is desired.

The coaxial antenna is used in situations where there is a need to put some distance between equipment and its antenna. For example, a multichannel bag system might create enough RF interference in the confines of the gear bag to diminish the effectiveness of standard whip antennas, so a coaxial antenna can be positioned on the bag strap. Likewise, a coaxial antenna can be used where clothing or other gear may cover or hinder equipment performance. The antenna can be positioned where it can be most effective.

IMPORTANT: The coaxial antenna must be positioned so that it is vertical for maximum effectiveness. It can point upward or downward, as long as it’s in a vertical orientation.

Each half of the antenna is cut to 1/4 wavelength of the corresponding block. When in use, the Antenna section should be positioned away from metal surfaces. The orientation of the remaining cable has no bearing on the antenna’s effectiveness.
