Customer looking for NMO Mount / Cable kit for Laird High-Frequency PHANTOM antennas. Part I

Posted by Michael Crudele on

We had a customer come in on Friday asking for NMO mounting solutions for Laird's 3G/4G PHANTOM antennas.  Specifically, he was looking for "high-frequency" mounting, which is typically used when the frequency used is 900 MHz or more.

 

For example, Laird's TRA821/18503P, TRA806/17103P, TRA6927M3PB-001

 

So, here is my reply...

 

There are two ways to go, You can use Magnetic NMO mounting or you can use the standard NMO "roof type" mounts which require that you drill a hole in your mounting surface (vehicle roof, enclosure, etc.)  In my first post, I'll address the magnetic mounts.

 

Magnetic Mount.  For magnetic mounting of high-frequency NMO antennas, there are a few choices

 

Laird part # G195  This is the base # for a LAIRD CHROME 3/4 INCH MAGNETIC NMO MOUNT (80 LB PULL STRENGTH) WITH 12 FOOT LMR195 CABLE & CONNECTOR.  The connector needs to be specified in the part #.  For example:

 

G195NI: LAIRD CHROME 3/4 INCH MAGNETIC NMO MOUNT (80 LB PULL STRENGTH) WITH 12 FOOT LMR195 CABLE & N-MALE CRIMP CONNECTOR INSTALLED

 

G19512NS: LAIRD CHROME 3/4 INCH MAGNETIC NMO MOUNT (80 LB PULL STRENGTH) WITH 12 FOOT LMR195 CABLE & N-MALE SOLDER CONNECTOR *NOT* INSTALLED
