Radio Frequency Systems

offers the most compre-

hensive line of highest

quality microwaveantennas in the indus-

try. Antennas are

available in all the

common frequency

bands ranging from

3GHz to 60GHz. They are

available in diameters from

1 ft (0.3 m) to 15 ft (4.60 m).

System design becomes easy and efficient with such a

comprehensive antenna offering.

The antennas are available in four performance classes

offering complete flexibility when designing a net-

work.

The antennas meet the pattern requirements according

to EN 300 631, EN 300 833 and FCC depending on the

frequency range.

In addition to the different electrical classes of anten-

nas Radio Frequency Systems offers the system design

engineers different options of survival wind speeds.

This allows the use of antennas in areas where

extreme wind conditions are normal.

Standard Performance Antennas

Standard Performance Antennas are economical solu-

tions for systems where side lobe suppression is of less

importance. The antennas consist of a reflector, feedand tower mount. Low VSWR versions are available

for low echo distortion.

STANDARD PERFORMANCE ANTENNAS

Single polarized PA & PAL seriesSingle polarized, spread spectrum PSF series

Dual polarized PAX series

Improved Performance Antennas

Improved Performance Antennas are

unshrouded and offer an economic

solution for systems requiring good

radiation performance particularly in

the back region. The improved F/B

ratio is achieved by use of an effi-

cient feed design together with a deep

dish reflector. These features result in

an improved front to back ratio, and

were specially designed to meet FCC

category A standards.

IMPROVED PERFORMANCE ANTENNAS

Single polarized PAD series

Dual polarized PADX series

Introduction and Antenna Descriptions

High Performance Antennas

High Performance Antennas are similar to Ultra High

Performance Antennas in construction. They are ideal-

ly suited for systems where a good level of side lobesuppression is required.

HIGH PERFORMANCE ANTENNAS

Single polarized DA series

Dual polarized DAX series

Ultra High Performance Antennas

Ultra High Performance Antennas are the optimum

choice for systems where a high level of pattern per-

formance is required because of high local radio con-

gestion. The antennas are supplied with low VSWR

feed, planar radome, tower mount and shroud with RF

absorber.

ULTRA HIGH PERFORMANCE ANTENNAS

Single polarized UA seriesDual polarized UDA series

High Cross Polar Discrimination Antennas

UXA series of antennas are based on Ultra High

Performance Antennas. These antennas offer high side

lobe suppression. In addition UXA antennas offer

extremely high cross-polar discrimination. They are

therefore ideally suited for very high capacity systems

utilizing extensive frequency reuse in highly congest-

ed environments. This outstanding performance is

achieved by use of a special corrugated illuminator, a

rigid torsion box back structure which ensures the

reflector maintains its shape in the field and strict

quality control during manufacture.

The cross-polar characteristics for radiation angles

close to bore sight meet the highest XPD requirements

according to EN 300 833 and FCC.

High cross-polar discrimination antennas are available

for frequencies from 4 GHz to 23 GHz.

SlimLine and CompactLine Antennas

Radio Frequency Systems recognizes that mobile oper-

ators and private microwave users have requirements

for cost effective solutions for their microwave anten-

na systems. These needs include products, which are

easy and quick to install while maintaining good elec-

trical performance. In response to these needs Radio

Frequency Systems developed the SlimLine and

CompactLine series of antennas.

The SlimLine series of antennas utilize a conventional

feed system and are available in Standard, High and

Ultra High performance versions. The SlimLine series

of antennas are available in diameters from 1ft (0.3 m)

to 6 ft (1.8 m).

RFS SLIMLINE® ANTENNAS

Single polarized Standard SPStandard, non-pressurized SPF

High performance SD

Ultra High Performance SUDual Polarized Standard SPX

High performance SDX

Ultra High Performance SUX

The CompactLine series of antennas use a special feed

system which results in a reduced shroud length and

consequently a lower profile antenna. These antennas

are lighter in weight than standard antennas for reduced tower loading and shipping costs.

Furthermore CompactLine antennas up to 2ft (0.6m)

diameter are very rugged, with a wind loading rating

of 250 km/h (155mph). Their type designation is SB

for single polarization and SBX for dual polarization.

CompactLine antennas are available in 1ft (0.3 m),

2 ft (0.6 m), 3ft (0.9 m) and 4ft (1.2 m) diameters.

RFS COMPACTLINE® ANTENNAS

Single polarized Ultra High Performance SB

Dual Polarized Ultra High Performance SBX

1ft and 2 ft antennas consist of an

integrated reflector/shroud system

avoiding any RF-leakage. This is a

further contribution offering excel-

lent radiation performance especial-

ly in the back direction.

FLEXWELL® Standard Elliptical Waveguide

RFS The Clear Choice ™ E60 Print Date: 08.08.2006


Product Description

FLEXWELL® elliptical waveguide is constructed oflongitudinally continuous seam welded, highly

conductive copper tube, corrugated and precisionformed into an elliptical cross section. It ismanufactured in continuous lengths using a specialseam welding process developed by the RFSorganization.

The corrugation design achieves high transversestability, flexibility and crush strength for superiorhandling and forming at an installation. The inherentstrength and flexibility of FLEXWELL waveguideallows on location, a continuous length ofwaveguide to be run directly from a tower-mountedantenna to the equipment building, eliminatingflange joint discontinuities and the use of bends,twists and flex sections associated with a rigid

rectangular waveguide system. Because of itsflexibility, FLEXWELL elliptical waveguide can beeasily transported to an installation site in coils oron reels and then uncoiled as required duringinstallation.

FLEXWELL elliptical waveguide has set an industrystandard for excellent electrical performance. Eachwaveguide has been carefully designed for low lossand low VSWR in specific frequency bands. Foroptimum system performance, there is no substitutefor FLEXWELL waveguide.

As part of the RFS manufacturing process, allelliptical waveguides undergo several different

electrical tests. Prior to shipping, every length is100% tested again for input VSWR, and undergoesa twenty-four hour pressure test. This additionaltesting is performed to guarantee conformance withpublished specifications and to avoid any problemsin the field.

A FLEXWELL elliptical waveguide feeder requiresless planning and reduces installation costs whencompared to a feeder system using a rigidrectangular waveguide. FLEXWELL waveguide isavailable cut to length with factory attachedconnectors or in continuous lengths for terminationin the field.

Product Description

FLEXWELL® elliptical waveguide is constructed oflongitudinally continuous seam welded, highly

conductive copper tube, corrugated and precisionformed into an elliptical cross section. It ismanufactured in continuous lengths using a specialseam welding process developed by the RFSorganization.

The corrugation design achieves high transversestability, flexibility and crush strength for superiorhandling and forming at an installation. The inherentstrength and flexibility of FLEXWELL waveguideallows on location, a continuous length ofwaveguide to be run directly from a tower-mountedantenna to the equipment building, eliminatingflange joint discontinuities and the use of bends,twists and flex sections associated with a rigid

rectangular waveguide system. Because of itsflexibility, FLEXWELL elliptical waveguide can beeasily transported to an installation site in coils oron reels and then uncoiled as required duringinstallation.

FLEXWELL elliptical waveguide has set an industrystandard for excellent electrical performance. Eachwaveguide has been carefully designed for low lossand low VSWR in specific frequency bands. Foroptimum system performance, there is no substitutefor FLEXWELL waveguide.

As part of the RFS manufacturing process, allelliptical waveguides undergo several different

electrical tests. Prior to shipping, every length is100% tested again for input VSWR, and undergoesa twenty-four hour pressure test. This additionaltesting is performed to guarantee conformance withpublished specifications and to avoid any problemsin the field.

A FLEXWELL elliptical waveguide feeder requiresless planning and reduces installation costs whencompared to a feeder system using a rigidrectangular waveguide. FLEXWELL waveguide isavailable cut to length with factory attachedconnectors or in continuous lengths for terminationin the field.

Technical Data Sheet APD-20

APD-20 Automatic Dehydrator, with LP alarm, 0.2 SCFM, 115V50/60 Hz

RFS The Clear Choice ™ APD-20 Print Date: 08.08.2006


Product Description

The APD-20 series Automatic PressurizationDehydrator is designed for reliable pressurization of

elliptical waveguide, coaxial cable and rigidtransmission line systems. The dehydrator includesa self contained completely automated air dryingsystem that utilizes a pressure swing moistureabsorption cycle to provide pressurized dry air whilecontinuously purging the collected moisture to theatmosphere. This eliminates the need forreplacement or manual reactivation of the desiccantand makes our APD-20 and APD-70 seriesdehydrators ideal for unattended operation at evenremote sites. Dehydrators are also suitable for theaverage manned working environment since theytypically run less than 5% of the time. In mostnormal applications, APD series dehydrators can beexpected to operate for up to five years before any

maintenance activities are required.

The APD-20 is rated at .2 SCFM(.09 liter/sec) and-40°F (-40°C) dry air dew point output at a 95°F(35°C) 95% relative humidity input. For normalroom environments the dehydrator output air has atypical dew point of -55°F (-46°C). System pressureis controlled by the dehydrator pressure switchsettings. Normally, this is factory adjusted to 3 psig(20.7kPa) “on” and 5 psig (34.5 kPa) “off”, but maybe readjusted in the field to operate anywherebetween 2 and 15 psig (13.8 kPa and 103.4 kPa).An internal 40 psig check valve guarantees that thecustomer system stays isolated from thedehydrator’s internal system and prevents loss of

system pressure due to leakage in the dehydrator.For additional safety, a standard low pressure alarmswitch factory-set at 1 psig (6.9 kPa), is installed inthe dehydrator. The alarm switch contains a set ofSPST contacts that can be used for both local andremote monitoring or alarming. Additional standardfeatures include a 0-15 psig pressure gauge,indicating power light, and a visual moisture monitorwhich is dark blue when dry and turns pink whenwet.

The units may be shelf mounted or placed in a 19”EIA relay rack. A vented back cover for thedehydrator may be ordered as an optionalaccessory.
