Dual Polarized

Parabolic Antennas
FEATURES / BENEFITS
• Reception (V, H, RHCP, LHCP) via
Optional Hybrid Switch
• Polarization Diversity
• Radome Enclosed, Hermetically Sealed Antenna Feeds
• High Gain With Extremely Broadband Coverage
• Designed to MIL-E-16400

Parabolic Reflector Antennas with frequency independent, dual

DIRECTIONAL ANTENNAS
polarized, primary feeds are offered that operate from 1.0 to
26.5 GHz. Several different types, offering various performance
characteristics are available to provide a wide selection of
gains and beamwidths. Other size parabolic reflectors are
available for different gain and beamwidth characteristics.

The TECOM family of dual polarized, dish and feed assemblies are capable of receiving simultaneous vertical
and horizontal polarization. Switchable right/left circular vertical and horizontal polarization diversity
reception is obtained by combining the two output ports with appropriate hybrids and switches.

The antenna types feature ultra broadband characteristics that are ideal for surveillance and direction finding
applications. All types yield an average input VSWR of less than 1.75: 1. The primary feeds are sealed, with
low-loss dielectric radomes. TECOM offers antenna system support hardware including EL/AZ Positioners,
digital controller with Windows 95/NT software, antenna support masts/towers, antenna mounting hardware
and interconnecting cables.
