ValuLine VS Antennas ValuLine Antenna Specifications 17 GHz Frequency Band General Description ValuLine Antennas provide a cost-effective solution for contemporary terrestrial microwave communications. They are available in standard unshielded (VP Series) high performance shielded (VHP Series), and dual polarized (VHPX Series) versions in all the popular fre- quency bands. The antennas have a watertght pres- Surizable feed system or can be integrated directly to radio systems. ValuLine antennas satisfy the widely accepted EIA 195C and 222E standards for electrical. mechanical and structural characteristics and are backed by a three year warranty. Both antenna and Fer applications assistance please contact the Andrew Customer Support Center radome are paintabie to match local surroundings.
