FMANMOB1008-SM

Antennas RF Overview

The FMANMOB1008-SM is an omnidirectional antenna manufactured by Fairview Microwave, designed for the VHF band spanning 136 MHz to 174 MHz. It features a gain of 3.5 dBi and utilizes an SMA male connector for interface. The unit employs a magnetic NMO mount for installation and supports vertical polarization.

Antennas RF Feature Summary

• Omnidirectional radiation pattern for uniform signal coverage
• Magnetic NMO mount enables temporary plug-and-play installation
• SMA male connector provides standard RF interface

Antennas RF Applications

• VHF mobile communications
• Marine radio systems
• Public safety vehicle installations

Antennas RF Procurement Notes

Verify the specific connector type (SMA male) and frequency range (136-174 MHz) against system requirements. Confirm that the magnetic NMO mount is compatible with the target vehicle surface. Ensure the antenna's vertical polarization matches the receiving equipment specifications.

Antennas RF Selection Notes

Select this model when a temporary or semi-permanent VHF solution is required. The magnetic mount offers flexibility without drilling. Consider the 3.5 dBi gain as sufficient for general mobile use. Verify cable length options if integrated assemblies are needed.

Antennas RF Part Context

This component belongs to Fairview Microwave's outdoor-rated antenna series. It is part of a family of VHF antennas designed for mobile applications. The product line emphasizes ease of installation through magnetic mounting solutions for rapid deployment scenarios.

Antennas RF Replacement Considerations

FMANMOB1008-NM serves as a direct substitute with identical performance but uses an N-type male connector instead of SMA.
