The CTX/CTM-1600-TF series of antennas are designed for use in “Hazardous-Classified”
and Industrial-Hardened applications. The antenna will operate in all three bands, GPS L1,
GLONASS L1 and Iridium. The antennas are omni-directional with 1dBic gain and designed
for flexible mounting on a variety of explosion proof housings or on ¾” rigid metal conduit
with a ¾” NPT pipe thread. The mounting base is made of heavy nickel-plated brass with an
integrated TNC jack coaxial connector for ease of installation. The radome is optimized for
rugged industrial applications while maintaining maximum radio frequency transmission and
reception efficiency. The antenna may be mounted up to 18” away from an enclosure within
a hazardous location without an additional seal. The CTX series has a 3/4” NPT mount and
the CTM series has a metric M20 mount.
