RF X-TREMEŒCross Polarized Triple Band Antenna, 698-2360MHz, 65deg,

13.6/16.3/17.2dBi, 4ft, VET, RET

The new RF X-TREME base station antenna design provides the highest gain and cross polar
discrimination combined with the best vertical pattern control of any triple band antenna for
its size. It is an ideal choice for site upgrades and new deployments where three frequency
bands, or MIMO/4 RX diversity, is used to add capacity and increase coverage. Only 12 inches
wide and 4 feet high, it maintains the size of a dual band antenna, while adding a third antenna
path with no compromise in RF performance. It can be used for 2G, 3G and 4G technologies.
This multi-band antenna features superior pattern symmetry and a phase shifter for each
radiating dipole providing exceptional patterns at all tilt settings. It is supplied with an
integrated and field replaceable AISG 2.0 antenna control unit (ACU) for remote electrical tilt
(RET) compatibility.

FEATURES / BENEFITS
Cross polarization ³triple band version with 6 ports (2x 698-894 MHz and 4x 1695-2360
MHz)
Pair shifting of dipoles minimized ³reduces quantization lobe interference issues (Low Band
has only top two dipoles shifted in pairs and High Band has no dipoles shifted in pairs)
Superior X-Pol Discrimination ³Improves Rx diversity
High suppression of upper sidelobes ³reduces cell interference
Enhanced tilt range from 2-10 degrees for 698-894MHz and 0-10 degrees for 1695-2360MHz RF X-TREME FWW Series
³ideal for applications in dense areas
Variable electrical downtilt ³provides enhanced precision in controlling intercell interference
High reliability ³designed to last in a tower top environment
Design incorporates low windload and low weight ³minimizes tower loading
Quick and easy to install ³reduces installation time and costs
Includes two 0.5m AISG Jumpers
