Land Mobile Radio Antenna Solutions

LMR base station options include both omni-directional and directional antenna solutions. Mobile Mark’s Comtelco brand omni-directional antennas offer three levels of construction: 1”, 1 ½” and 2” diameter radomes, allowing the network designer to choose the level of resilience required for the installation. The Folded Dipole Antennas, which can be configured for either omni-directional or directional use, provide wider bandwidth coverage than other forms of dipole antennas.

For point-to-point wireless connections, Yagi antennas offer rugged and reliable solutions. The Comtelco brand Yagis are made with a construction technique called cold weld, which produces antennas every bit as rugged as a welded Yagi, but at a significant cost advantage. UHF In-Building coverage is becoming a more common requirement so that Public Safety professionals can stay connected when they enter a building. Mobile Mark’s new Ceiling Mount UHF antenna offers consistent coverage and a small, discreet, profile.

A wide range of traditional whip-style mobile antennas are available in the Comtelco brand line. These antennas are configured for a specific frequency range within UHF, VHF, 220 and Low Band and are typically tuned at the factory. Some models are field tunable and a cutting chart is included. Most of the antennas in this line have a NMO base; Mag-mount bases are available and are typically configured with 17-feet of cable.

Low profile antennas have become increasingly popular among LMR professionals as users move away from whip style antennas on their vehicles. We offer solutions for UHF, VHF and Cellular/FirstNet. Mount options range from standard NMO mount, to tamper proof thru-hole mounting, to mobile mag-mount. The new Low-Profile VHF antenna represents a significant step forward for emergency vehicles who require a low-profile solution but still need a reliable VHF connection.

While many Land Mobile Radio (LMR) users know exactly which frequencies they will use, others appreciate the flexibility of the broadband mobile antennas. Solutions are available for UHF, VHF, Cellular/FirstNet and WiFi allowing them to be easily stocked for a wide range of radios. Multiband Antennas are a convenient solution that combine UHF with Cellular/FirstNet and GPS coverage within the same antenna housing.
