Antennas RF datasheet and documents for ABFT-L

ABFT-L

Antennas RF Overview

The TE Connectivity ABFT-L is a field-tunable, straight whip RF antenna designed for VHF and UHF applications. It operates within a frequency range of 118MHz to 896MHz with a center frequency of 507MHz. The unit features a unity gain (0dB) specification and maintains a Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) of 1.5. It supports a maximum power handling capacity of 200W and utilizes an NMO base mount for installation. The antenna is constructed with a black finish and has a physical length of 24 inches.

Antennas RF Feature Summary

Field-tunable design allows for precise frequency adjustment across the operational band.
Straight whip configuration provides a compact vertical profile suitable for mobile mounting.
NMO base mount ensures secure attachment to ferrous surfaces without drilling.
High power handling capability supports demanding transmission requirements.

Antennas RF Applications

Maritime vessel communications
Land mobile radio systems
Public safety vehicle installations

Antennas RF Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's current datasheet to ensure correct tuning specifications. Confirm that the NMO base mount interface matches the existing vehicle or equipment surface. Check RoHS compliance status if environmental regulations apply to the deployment location. Ensure the operating frequency falls within the tunable range of 118MHz to 896MHz.

Antennas RF Selection Notes

Select this model when a fixed-frequency antenna does not meet variable channel requirements. The NMO mount is ideal for vehicles with pre-existing magnetic bases. Consider the 24-inch length for clearance constraints. Verify that the 200W power rating exceeds the transmitter output to prevent damage. Unity gain is sufficient for general coverage needs where high directivity is not required.

Antennas RF Part Context

This component belongs to the TE Connectivity A-BASE antenna series, which focuses on rugged, field-adjustable solutions for professional communication networks. The ABFT-L variant specifically addresses the need for tunability in dynamic frequency environments. It complements other accessories like the MB8UT-L mount hardware to complete installation assemblies.

Antennas RF Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes may include other field-tunable whip antennas from TE Connectivity with matching NMO bases. Verify that alternative models support the same 118-896MHz range and 200W power rating. Cross-reference physical dimensions to ensure fitment. Generic replacements must maintain similar VSWR performance to avoid signal degradation.
