Pasternack has released a new line of Yagi antennas that are excellent for usage in utility, energy, SCADA, LoRa and RFID inventory tracking applications.

This line of antennas includes five new models specially created for customers deploying wireless networks in rugged, outdoor conditions. These antennas function at either 400MHz or 900MHz with gain ranging from 7dBi to 13dBi and are created from aircraft-quality aluminium. These antennas feature a ruggedised, fully welded, black powder-coated construction and are intended to defend against high winds of up to 200mph as well as icy conditions.

“Our new Yagi antennas were designed for use in demanding, outdoor wireless networks where lower frequencies are typically used, such as SCADA, RFID, wastewater, and oil and gas installations. These antennas are also ruggedised with a fully welded design and powder coating to withstand the harshest conditions,” said Kevin Hietpas, product line manager.
