Each and every day, first responders and law enforcement teams must be ready to take on an unimaginable range of emergencies, from house fires to traffic accidents to criminal activity. Confronting these issues quickly and efficiently, while keeping our community safe, requires extremely clear and reliable communication with great reach and coverage. Often that communication requires radio interoperability with those radios of different government agencies.  An emerging trend to achieve that interoperability is to use communication provided by all-band radios that may include VHF, UHF and 700/800 MHz radio bands.

 

To help our police officers and fire departments communicate clearly and consistently, PulseLarsen has developed a tri-band antenna that is rugged, reliable, and easy to install. Perfect for use with all-band radios, as well as for first responder budgets, this high-value whip is designed with all of the needs and concerns of two-way radio utilizers in mind.  

 

 

Tri-Band Antenna Features & Benefits

Made of black stainless steel, our tri-band antenna is above all else compact and rugged. At just 16.5 inches (452.5 mm) long and weighing just over 7 ounces (205 grams), it is much less likely to catch on branches or other objects than comparable products. In addition, a spring located just above the antenna’s base make it extremely flexible, and therefore extremely resistant to collisions and impacts.

 

Adding to its ruggedness is its ability to withstand rain, wind, snow, water, and dust. It holds an IP67 rating and can also withstand up to 150-mile-an-hour winds. It also has a -40 degrees Celsius to 85 degrees Celsius operating temperature.

 

This antenna also utilizes an NMO mount, which makes it easily swappable with other models that also use the NMO mount, and easy to install on vehicles that don’t yet have an antenna mount for its radio.

 

Other features:

  • Omnidirectional
  • RoHS compliant
  • Vertical polarization
  • 0/5/4 dBi gain
  • 100 watt power withstanding

 

The Tri-Band Mobile is pre-tuned to cover:

  • VHF: 150 – 174 MHz
  • UHF: 430 – 520 MHz
  • 7/800: 750 – 870 MHz
