Whatever the application...we have got you covered.
Each FlexComm transceiver installation requires an antenna. Several different antenna are supplied for the Canyon Aero Connect RT-5000 that cover the whole 29.7 to 960 MHz frequency range of the transceiver. If antenna height is a critical factor, the AT-5000 should be specified since it is only 5.5″ tall. For best overall performance, the 9.5″ tall AT-560 antenna is recommended. If the application does not require long range operation below 120 MHz, the AT-160 will work very well at a considerably lower cost. It is a passive multiband antenna with the same dimensions of the AT-560.
AT-570 Antenna
The AT-570 is a multi-band, tunable antenna designed to comply with the requirements of TSO C169a. It provides communications over the frequency band 29.7 MHz to 960 MHz and is intended for operation in general subsonic airborne applications with Canyon’s RT-5000 radio and FC-5000 Logic Converter Unit.
