Case Study – The SAS-230 (C2934-3)

The US Marine Corps were familiar with the “receive only” versions of our SAS-230 antenna. They liked its omni radiation pattern and its broad frequency range of 20MHz to 3GHz (dual band)and asked us if we could supply a high power passive version that could be used for detection and jamming. We did this, reinforced the internal vibration protection of the antenna to withstand a typical in-theatre environment and upped the power handling to 300W.  We have since shipped almost 10,000 units for deployment in a very short time-frame.
