Beam Iridium Pole Whip Antenna - RST714B

Beam Iridium Whip Antenna (RST714B) allows an Iridium handset or terminal to be used inside any Vehicle, Vessel or Fixed Building with raised mounting profile above obstructions. The cable supplied with the antenna is to the maximum specified length to avoid any loss of signal and maintain call quality. This antenna is recommended for extreme environments where fixed and high profile clearance is required and "whip" flexibility to avoid damage.

The whip design provides for increased roofline clearance and is designed to be extremely flexible in its installation options, from bull bars, roof racks or pole mounts.

The antenna includes 5m of Iridium cable and is terminated with an SMA connector, however a TNC adaptor is also supplied as it is the most common terminal connection for Iridium products. 

Typical Installations for the Beam RST714 Antenna

Vehicle Antenna Installation: The ideal position for any vehicle-mounted application is to take advantage of  the greatest ground plane from the surface of the vehicle. This antenna is recommended for 4WD / RUV and Truck applications where a rugged antenna giving the highest possible clearance of the roof line is required and can be easily fitted to the bull bar of a vehicle.

Marine Antenna Installation: The antenna must be installed without obstruction of other instruments or structures. The antenna must not be positioned within range of radar equipment or other RF interference. This antenna can only be used for temporary marine applications; You have to use RST710 Antenna for permanent marine applications.

Fixed Site Installation: The antenna must be installed without obstruction of other buildings, chimneys or other structures. Consideration should also be given to the surrounding environments such as large trees, mountains or other buildings.

This antenna is designed to work with Beam, Iridium, and other party suppliers products.
