A.H. Systems Model Active Monopole Antennas

FAQ's

Q: Is your output connector bonded to the network case per MIL-STD 461F/G?

A: The signal output connector is bonded to the antenna matching network case.

Q: The product page states that the antenna includes an 18" ground plane but the

standard I'm testing to requires at least a 60cm ground plane?

A: Our standard monopole antennas comes with an 18" ground plane. A 24" ground

plane is also available and typically in stock.

Q: What is the ECSM calibration?

A: ECSM stands for equivalent capacitance substitution method and it's a calibration

method that measures the insertion loss of the matching unit with an equivalent

antenna fixture (our model ECF-12K).

Q: Can the active monopole antennas be used for transmitting applications?

A: No, the active monopole antennas are a receive only antenna. Any attempt to

transmit power with damage the antenna.

Q: My telescoping rod has a BNC connector; do you still carry this part?

A: Yes, the telescoping rod with a BNC connector (P/N 2337-1) is for our older active

monopole antennas. All new active monopole antennas have been re-designed to

accept a telescoping rod with a 1/4-20 thread instead of a BNC connector. This new

connection makes for a better electrical performance as well as an improved rugged

design.

Q: Can I use a different element length?

A: Yes, however calibration results were based on a 41" (1.04 Meter) element length

and they will not be valid for different lengths. Please contact our calibration

department for a custom calibration of the active monopole with a different element

length.

Q: What type of battery is included with the active monopole antennas?

A: The active monopole antenna has a 12VDC NiMH 2000mAh battery assembly (P/N

2351-3).

Q: How long does it take to charge the batteries?

A: Every hour of charge will result in two hours of operation for up to 10 hours of

charging. Charging for up to 24 hours will not damage the battery.

Q: What is the lifetime of the battery pack?

A: That will depend on the amount of usage (charge/discharge cycles). A typical

battery pack will last 3 to 5 years
