A Lairds FG8243 omnidirectional fiberglass base station antennas are collinear designs enclosed in a high- density fiberglass which is covered with a protective ultraviolet inhibiting coating. The radiating elements are made from high-efficiency copper and are carefully phased to provide maximum gain in the horizontal plane. The mounting sleeves are tuned to eliminate RF currents from the transmission line, resulting in a cold sleeve allowing great freedom in mounting. This high quality and well- focused beam provides the highest gain and best efficiency.
