n21roadie Posted November 12, 2018 Report Share Posted November 12, 2018 Does the back shield provide any noise reduction above and below the sector? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tasos Posted November 12, 2018 Report Share Posted November 12, 2018 @n21roadie- Not really. It main functions are forming the beams so both the Vertical and Horizontal coverage areas are the same and then reducing back radiation. You may see some improved co-location on top an bottom depending on what sector you compare it to, but for the most part you should use vertical space separation like other sectors. Or you should look at our Horns for the best isolation in all directions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We current only use for sectors - RF Elements SEC-CC-5-17 ( which I believe is now discontinued!) we space them about 1+ meters vertically apart, we have tried first generation of horns but it appears from listening to the webinars the alignment of 30/40 degree horns are super critical? Also we are a little confused by the mounting of the second generation horns ( https://rfelements.com/products/wireless-broadband/asymmetrical-horn-tp-antennas/overview#60-asymmetrical-beam-antenna-hg3-tp-a60) with asymmetric beam pattern should the longest part of the horn opening be horizontal (in the above example 342mm side be horizontal?)

Tasos Posted November 13, 2018 Report Share Posted November 13, 2018 @n21roadie- On the Asymmetrical Horns there is only one was to mount it. The long side should be vertical like you see in the pictures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
