Operating across 174-862 MHz, the AW-TV-VU-12 tv / broadcast antenna provides 12 dBi gain and horizontal polarization. The design targets terrestrial broadcast reception deployments that demand reliable coverage and stable impedance matching.
Radiation Pattern and Gain
The half-power beamwidth is approximately 45 degrees in azimuth by 38 degrees in elevation, concentrating radiated energy toward the intended service area and improving signal-to-noise ratio at the cell edge. The rated gain of 12 dBi is referenced to an isotropic radiator.
Mechanical and Electrical Specifications
Mechanically, the AW-TV-VU-12 measures 980 x 560 x 150 mm and is housed in a Aluminum elements / ABS boom. The standard interface is a F-Female connector, with a nominal impedance of 75 ohms and a typical VSWR of 2.5:1 or better. The element withstands up to 5 W of input power.
Installation Guidance
The recommended installation is rooftop mast / balcony. The enclosure carries an IP54 environmental rating for outdoor exposure. For best results, mount the antenna with clear line of sight to the served area and bond all outdoor hardware to a proper grounding system.
