Antenna Products announces new Phazar antennas for growing oDAS market

Mineral Wells, Texas – October 22, 2015

Antenna Products Corporation has announced the development of three new Phazar antennas designed to meet the growing demand for small cell and oDAS (outdoor Distributed Antenna Systems) solutions of mobile operators and wireless carriers.

These new antennas will cover both the WCS and WiFi band (2.3 to 2.5 GHZ) and the WiFi and BRS band (2.4 to 2.7 GHz) in both 7 and 10 dBi single omni-directional and 2×7 dBi dual omni-directional configurations, and are scheduled for production starting in early November 2015. Designed to mount on rooftops, utility poles and street lights, these antennas will feature a PIM rating of -150 dBc with a typical VSWR better than 1.5:1 with a maximum VSWR of 1.7:1.

“The trend is for wireless carriers to focus their spending on solutions that densify existing networks, meeting the growing demand for mobile broadband data by increasing the number of small cells and outdoor Distributed Antenna Systems (oDAS) rather than simply adding macro cell sites,” says Robert Fitzgerald, President and CEO of Antenna Products Corporation. “These new Phazar antennas fill a critical role in the exploding mobile broadband infrastructure market where DAS nodes are expected to more than triple by 2018.”

Phazar antennas are currently being utilized by every major wireless carrier in the industry, meeting or exceeding the coverage and capacity requirements for installations in demanding urban environments such as New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Charlotte, New Orleans and Chicago, as well as in theme parks such as Disneyland and Disneyworld.
