As the mobile communications industry evolves, new and larger antennas are needed to meet the carrier’s RF needs. The challenge to mount these large and heavy antenna arrays falls primarily on the mobile-mounted telescoping mast. Until recently, mounting these antennas on COWS & COLTS has been limited and cumbersome to say the least. We've been listening to our customers and have worked to develop several solutions. We have solutions for the new Matsing spherical antennas, large flat panel multi-beam antennas, canister antennas as well as 3-sector panel antennas, and microwave antennas. If you don’t see what you’re looking for just ask us. We can discuss a solution, and design a mount to work for you.
Fold-Over Antenna Mount
The process of installing antennas and coax onsite is laborious, with traditional designs taking 2-3 hours to set up with a crew of 3. Based on conversations with our customers, we designed a patented fold-over antenna mounting solution that allows the antennas to remain permanently installed on the mast. This also keeps the feeder cables permanently connected, but they fold down during transport and stowage, speeding deployment and increasing readiness. Our permanently connected fold-over design can be set up by 1 or 2 people in a matter of minutes, significantly reducing deployment costs.
