Antennas
An antenna is the radiating and receiving element from which the radio sig-
nal, in the form of RF power, is radiated to its surroundings and vice versa.
The antenna gain and transmitting power may be limited by country regula-
tions.
The RADWIN 1000/2000/5000 may be operated with an integrated antenna
that is part of the ODU unit, or with external antennas connected to the
ODU via N-type connectors. All cables and connections must be connected
correctly to reduce RF losses. The required antenna impedance is 50
Ω
.
The Integrated Antenna ODU is provided with 370 mm (1.2ft) flat panel
antenna. The radio and the antenna are housed in a weatherproof case as a
single unit.

External antennas are available for the RADWIN 1000/2000/5000 radios,
varying in operating frequencies, form factor, size and gain, dual or single
polarization.
