R&S®AC120 Antenna
SHF Directional Antenna System
Key Facts
1 GHz to 26.5 GHz/0.85 GHz to 26.5 GHz
Extremely broadband directional antenna for radiomonitoring, steerable in azimuth and elevation
The R&S AC120 is a stationary directional antenna that can be adjusted in azimuth and elevation.
The reflector has a diameter of 1.2 m and – depending on the feed used – receives signals in the range 1 GHz to 18 GHz or 0.85 GHz to 26.5 GHz. The frequency range can be extended to up to 40 GHz by flange-connected options.
The R&S AC120 is used for radiomonitoring tasks, for instance.
