Dual Iridium/LTE

Product catalog summary

Description: The S65-5366-738 is a multifunction antenna designed for aircraft, combining dual Iridium and a single dual-element LTE antenna within one radome. It covers Iridium frequencies from 1616 MHz to 1626.5 MHz and LTE frequencies from 700 MHz to 2700 MHz, supporting current and future 4G/UMTS technologies. The radome is built to withstand rain, ice, and lightning, and features a four-hole baseplate for easy mounting. The antenna is hermetically sealed and DC grounded, suitable for commercial, business jets, and rotorcraft.

Specifications:

Electrical: The antenna operates at 1616.0-1626.5 MHz for Iridium and 700-2700 MHz for LTE. It has a VSWR of ≤ 1.8:1 for Iridium and ≤ 3.0:1 for LTE, with RHCP polarization and 50 Ohms impedance. Power handling is 60 Watts for Iridium and 100 Watts for LTE, with an axial ratio of ≤3.0 dB at Zenith and DC grounded lightning protection.

Mechanical: The antenna weighs 1.2 lbs, with dimensions of 3.55 inches in height, 7.85 inches in length, and 3.03 inches in width. It is constructed from 6061 T6 aluminum alloy and thermoset plastic, finished with Skydrol resistant polyurethane enamel, and uses three TNC female connectors.

Environmental: The antenna operates in temperatures ranging from -55°C to +85°C and altitudes up to 55,000 ft.

Compliance: It meets FAA TSO-159d, RTCA DO-160D/G, DO262C, and MIL-HDBK-5400 standards.

DUAL IRIDIUM/LTE S65-5366-738 SPECIFICATIONS ELECTRICAL Frequency (IRIDIUM) (LTE) Polarization Impedance Power Handling DESCRIPTION S65-5366-738: Multifunction antenna that provides a dual Iridium and a single dual-element antenna in one radome. This limits the space need on an aircraft. The Iridium is a dual-element antenna providing coverage from 1616 MHz to 1626.5 MHz for full Iridium coverage. The LTE is designed to support present and future 4G/UMTS operating from 700 MHz to 2700 MHz.
