HELICAL 5.8GHz 16dBi LHCP Antenna (Left-Hand Polarization), 17-Turn, Open-Type SMA

Manufacturer: SkyReach. Type: Antennas > Circular Antennas > Helical Antenna. Custom manufacturing available! This antenna is an improved version of the popular Helical 17, designed for stable operation in the 4800-6000 MHz range and reliable directional coverage with minimal losses.

The antenna maintains a constant VSWR below 1.5 across the entire 4800-6000 MHz range, making it one of the best in its class for signal return loss and efficiency. With 16 dBi gain and a 30-degree beamwidth, it provides a focused radiation pattern, ideal for long-range communication links and operation in congested communication channels.

The open-type design and 17 turns ensure stable circular polarization, minimizing the impact of multipath reflections and improving communication stability in changing conditions. The 54 mm reflector diameter and high-quality 1 mm enameled copper conductor contribute to high mechanical strength and radiation efficiency.

The antenna is suitable for applications in wireless communication systems at frequencies around 5.8 GHz: access points, communication between unmanned aerial vehicles (FPV), industrial and professional data transmission lines where high stability and signal directionality are required. Thanks to the SMA connector, it is easy to integrate with most modern transmitters and receivers.

Before installation, we recommend checking connector compatibility and considering the cable length of approximately 15 cm; custom manufacturing with different cable or connector parameters is possible if needed. The maximum input power of 50 W determines the permissible load for use in systems with power amplifiers.
