TransCore’s AA3237 Compact HE (Harsh Environment) Antenna offers rail integrators a rugged, reliable antenna in a small, easy to install package for today’s increasingly crowded train undercarriage.
Designed to meet AREMA and EN shock and vibration standards, the Compact HE Antenna can stand up to some of the harshest conditions. The IP65/67 sealed radome protects the antenna from wash-down spray and full submersion.
The Compact HE Antenna can be mounted under the locomotive or on the truck/bogie. Optional spacers allow the antenna to interface with brackets for other readers, minimizing modifications to existing equipment.
TransCore’s specially designed strain relief mount provides better coaxial cable durability when used in bogie mount applications.
The Compact HE Antenna case materials are designed to meet RoHS, low-toxicity, and low-smoke requirements.
