Yagi 7-Element High Gain Antennas for Harsh Environments
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The PCTEL Yagi 7-Element High Gain Antennas for Harsh Environments are heavy-duty, high-gain, directional antennas specifically engineered for demanding outdoor conditions. These antennas provide focused signal transmission, making them ideal for long-range, point-to-point communications in VHF and UHF frequency bands. They are widely used in SCADA systems, public safety networks, oil & gas monitoring, utilities, and industrial automation.
This is a rugged, industrial-grade, high-performance directional antenna that uses seven elements to provide enhanced signal strength, improved range, and minimal interference.
Designed to withstand extreme weather, strong winds, and corrosive environments, this antenna is ideal for remote locations, outdoor industrial facilities, and mission-critical communication systems.
The corrosion-resistant aluminum construction, UV-stabilized materials, and heavy-duty mounting hardware make it reliable in the toughest conditions, including coastal, desert, and high-altitude environments.
