Steerable ENG Central ENG Receive Antenna Systems

Vislink News and Entertainment offer steerable central ENG receive antenna systems from two of the most well respected antenna suppliers in the Broadcast ENG industry, NSI and RadioWaves. There are a wide range of features available such as cosecant squared elevation beam shaping, continuous azimuth rotation, azimuth and elevation control, asymmetrical parabolic off-set feed designs, quad polarization, high dynamic range Low Noise Amplifiers (LNA), and band pass and channel filter switching options just to name a few. These directional parabolic antenna systems range in size from approximately slightly greater than 48” (1.22 m) diameter to 18” x 30” (.46 x .76 m), and are particularly well suited for applications where antenna directivity due to frequency congestion or long ENG microwave shots are required.
