Product Details
The DRHA800 is a compact dual-ridge horn antenna that delivers directional radiation patterns and usable gain continuously from 800 MHz to 12.8 GHz, a 16:1 bandwidth. To our knowledge it is the smallest commercially available DRHA reaching down to 800 MHz, and its lightweight all-metal body, produced by metal additive manufacturing, makes it well suited to EMC testing, antenna characterization, electronic warfare test and evaluation, and wideband signal monitoring. The antenna feeds through an SMA female connector and handles up to 10 W of input power.
- Suited to EMC radiated emissions and immunity testing, antenna characterization, electronic warfare test and evaluation, and wideband signal monitoring.
- Dual-ridge design maintains a directional pattern and usable gain across the full 800 MHz to 12.8 GHz range.
- Compact, lightweight all-metal build produced by metal additive manufacturing; to our knowledge the smallest commercially available DRHA reaching 800 MHz.
- SMA female connector with 1/4-20 mounting; handles up to 10 W of input power.
- Each unit ships with a measured test report of VSWR and boresight gain; raw data (.txt/.s1p) and custom characterization available on request.
