The Scala Paraflector® is a high-gain half-parabolic antenna used in broadcast and communications systems around the world.
•High front-to-back ratio for point-to-point relay system applications, as well as GSM cellular repeaters and MAS and ISM systems.
•Fabricated from seamless drawn aluminum tubing and extruded pipe and heavy aluminum castings, gold anodized for corrosion protection, plus stainless steel hardware and fastenings. Foam filled broadband feed assembly requires no pressurization and can be easily replaced if necessary.
The KUSA PR-series Paraflector antennas are intended for use in professional fixed-station applications in the 406-512 MHz band. They feature:
• High gain, half parabolic design.
• Lower weight and surface area than a parabolic dish or grid.
• Very rugged construction using anodized aluminum pipe, tubing and castings; plus stainless steel hardware and fastenings.
• Weather resistant foam-filled broadband feed assembly requires no pressurization. Easily replaced for frequency changes.
• Compact packaging for standard U.S. express services.
