LAIRD TECHNOLOGIES PATENTED PHANTOM FIELD DIVERSITY LOW PROFILE ANTENNA
Laird's unique patented Phantom is a tough low-profile antenna for outdoor or indoor applications. Measuring only 2.7†tall, the Phantom 800 MHz to 5.8 GHz antenna models’ revolutionary design features field diversity with both vertical and horizontal polarization components. This gives the antenna diversity, frequency agility, low visibility, wide bandwidth and a low angle radiation pattern that is superior to traditional gain antennas in most applications.
The industry standard NMO mounting socket mates with all Laird Technolgies’ magnetic, trunk lid, and hole mounts. A threaded permanent stud mount model is also available for vandal resistant mounting on brackets, panels, ceilings or any other kind of housing.
WHIPLESS DESIGN
The patented whipless design of the Laird / Antenex Phantom antenna allows your fleet to pass through car washes without removing the antenna. Using a low profile, shot-glass or salt shaker design means they don't look like traditional antennas. So, they attract less attention, are subject to less vandalism, and have lower wind resistance. The Phantom Antenna is also less susceptible to damage by low hanging trees, garages or other obstructions.
FIELD DIVERSITY
Field diversity means that the antenna is simultaneously sensitive to both the electric and magnetic fields of the signal, like having two antennas. Field diversity makes the antenna resistant to the picket-fence fading and multipath nulls that are found in urban operation and undulating mobile environments.
