The SMW-PTC Series Antenna was designed for PTC (Positive Train Control) applications. Designed & built with heavy duty construction to survive the rigors of railroad use.
This antenna uses our popular SMW Series platform to combine PTC with WiFi and GPS. As with our other SMW antennas, this antenna contains 3-elements all within the same radome. The first element covers 220-220 MHz, the second element covers 2.4-2.5 GHz and the third covers GPS at 1575 MHz.
The SMW-PTC antennas provide 2 dBi gain on the PTC element, 5 dBi gain on the WiFi element, and 5 dbi gain with a 26 dB amplifier on the GPS element. The antennas will handle 10 watts of power.
The surface mount models use a 3⁄4-inch feed thru (1.9 cm) for securing to the vehicle. Access to the underside of the body surface is required to complete the installation of the SMW Series. For best performance the antenna should be mounted on a metal surface or ground plane. A mag-mount option is NOT available.
The antenna is enclosed in a 4.2”D x 3.2”H (10.7 cm x 8.1 cm) weatherproof radome, and supplied with all mounting hardware and a sealing gasket.
