• Standard gain horn design optimized for directional radiation patterns
• WR-229 waveguide configuration ensuring precise dimensional tolerances
• CMR-229 flange compatibility for standardized mounting connections

Antennas RF Applications

• Microwave communication link testing
• Antenna pattern measurement systems
• Radiation efficiency characterization

Antennas RF Procurement Notes

Verify the exact model suffix against official Pasternack documentation to confirm the 10 dBi gain specification. Ensure the CMR-229 flange type matches your system requirements. Confirm availability status through authorized channels as distribution may vary by region.

Antennas RF Selection Notes

Select this model when a 10 dBi gain is required within the 3.3-4.9 GHz band. The WR-229 waveguide size dictates the physical interface constraints. Compare with the PE9862B-15 if higher gain is necessary, noting the difference in nominal performance specifications.

Antennas RF Part Context

This antenna is part of the Pasternack ProLine directional antenna family. It shares the WR-229 waveguide form factor with other models in the series but differs in gain characteristics. The product line focuses on standard gain applications requiring reliable waveguide interfaces.

Antennas RF Replacement Considerations

The PE9862B-15 is a documented substitute offering 15 dBi gain within the same frequency range. Verify that the increased gain meets application needs without compromising beamwidth requirements.
