In the demanding world of Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS), consistent, long-range communication is not a luxury—it's a fundamental requirement. The 860–930MHz Omni Fiberglass Antenna is engineered specifically to meet this challenge. Combining high gain, exceptional durability, and a highly optimized frequency range, this antenna is the definitive solution for operators requiring reliable UAV data links, remote telemetry, and extended LoRaWAN network coverage in the field.
Forget the anxiety of mid-flight signal dropout. Our industrial-grade design ensures your critical command, control, and payload data remain secure and stable across vast distances and challenging environments. This is the upgrade that transforms operational uncertainty into absolute confidence.
The Imperative of the 860-930 MHz Frequency Band
The 860–930 MHz range, encompassing the widely used 868 MHz (Europe) and 915 MHz (North America/Australia) ISM bands, is the gold standard for long-range, low-power applications. Unlike higher frequencies that are line-of-sight dependent, signals in this sub-GHz band exhibit superior penetration and diffraction, allowing them to travel farther and better navigate obstructions like buildings, foliage, and terrain.
Key Performance Benefits for UAV & Remote Operations:
Maximum Range Potential: Optimized tuning within this critical band ensures the lowest possible VSWR (Voltage Standing Wave Ratio), maximizing the effective radiated power (ERP) and extending the operational radius for UAV ground stations and remote sensors.
Superior Obstacle Penetration: Essential for BVLOS (Beyond Visual Line of Sight) operations and flying in urban or mountainous terrain where clear line-of-sight is impossible. This frequency provides a more resilient data link than conventional 2.4 GHz or 5.8 GHz systems.
LoRaWAN and ISM Compatibility: Seamlessly supports popular long-range wireless protocols such as LoRaWAN, providing an essential backhaul link for UAVs relaying data from ground-based IoT sensors or remote monitoring stations.
Unrivaled Durability: The Fiberglass Advantage
This isn't just an antenna; it's a piece of robust outdoor infrastructure. The choice of a premium Fiberglass (FRP) radome is central to the antenna's long-term performance and reliability in any climate.
Engineered for Extreme Weather Conditions:
True Waterproof Protection (IP67 Rated): The sealed fiberglass housing provides an impenetrable barrier against moisture, dust, and corrosive elements. This waterproof antenna is certified to withstand continuous exposure to rain, snow, and extreme temperature swings , ensuring zero downtime due to weather-related failure.
Exceptional Mechanical Strength: Fiberglass offers high tensile strength and rigidity, protecting the sensitive internal radiator elements from physical stress, wind load, and vibration—a crucial factor for tower-mounted or elevated installations subject to high winds.
UV and Corrosion Resistance: The durable white or grey finish is chemically resistant and non-yellowing under prolonged UV exposure, maintaining both its aesthetic integrity and internal shielding properties over years of outdoor deployment.
Optimized Omni-Directional High-Gain Output
An omnidirectional antenna is mandatory for applications where the remote asset's position is constantly changing, such as a moving UAV, or when you need to cover a wide regional area from a central fixed point.
The finely tuned element geometry ensures the high gain (5 dBi nominal) is concentrated in a tight, efficient horizontal pattern, maximizing signal strength laterally across the horizon where it is most needed for UAV communication and area coverage.
