2110 MANPACK TACTICAL ANTENNAS

 FEATURES AT A GLANCE
Codan provides a range of antenna solutions for maximum
durability and mobility, and quick deployment for short /
long range communications.

TACTICAL WHIP ANTENNAS


Operating with the built in antenna tuner of the transceiver, the
Whip Antennas are suitable for communications over short distances.
Made from lightweight materials, the Whip Antennas are designed to
2110 with Tape Whip Antenna be foldable or collapsible and easily stowed. They enable rapid set up
and deployment.
Available in lengths of 1.5 m (5’) or 3 m (10’), the shorter length Whip
Antenna is more suitable for communications while on the move,
while the longer length provides improved performance.
All Whip Antennas attach to the transceiver with a flexible gooseneck,
Broadband Antenna Kit allowing the antenna to be oriented horizontally or vertically
independent of the transceiver position.

TACTICAL LONG WIRE ANTENNA


Long Wire Antenna Kit
With its 10 m (30’) length the Tactical Long Wire Antenna provides
improved communications performance compared to the shorter
Whip Antennas. It is designed for communications over short to
 Wide range of antennas medium range distances.
 Types that are suited to short or The Long Wire Antenna is provided in an ultra lightweight kit consisting
long range communications of kevlar reinforced antenna wire, an adaptor for connection to the
internal antenna tuner of the transceiver, a winding spool with a

communications on the move
Using a suitable structure (like a tree), the Long Wire Antenna
 Easy & quick to deploy in can be deployed in a manner of minutes and enables operation
the field between 1.6 MHz and 30 MHz.

TACTICAL DIPOLE & BROADBAND ANTENNAS


Superior communications performance can be achieved by using a
Broadband or Dipole Antenna. These antennas are provided as complete
kits with halyard ropes, kevlar reinforced antenna wire on winding
spools, all necessary adaptors, baluns, terminations, earthing wire,
anchor pegs, and Quick Reference cards with deployment instructions.
The Broadband Antenna is well suited to multi-frequency operation
including ALE. The Dipole Antenna provides the best performance on a
single frequency.
The Dipole Antenna is tuned to the required frequency by adjusting the
length of the antenna wire that is in use. The 2110 Transceiver displays
the required dipole antenna length for a given frequency, and the brass
markers attached to the antenna wire at regular intervals allow easy
measuring of the required antenna length even when deploying the
antenna in the dark.
