Product Brief

ValuLine Vision 2 ft Antenna

Newly re-engineered 2 ft antenna designed with superior RF pattern performance

When re re--engineering and re re--designing the VHLP(X)2 family of antennas we considered everything, right down to the box in which it is packaged. The result is an evolutionary 2 ft (0.6 m) microwave antenna that delivers superior RF performance, lowers shipping costs, and lowers total cost of ownership.

Better RF performance, easier to install and maintain, less expensive to ship, quicker to get. At Andrew, value is so much more than price. Everyday, we're expanding our vision of what value can be. The VHLP(X)2 is proof positive.

Using Andrew Solutions patented Pattern Control Ring technology, the VHLP(X)2 antennas have a robust electrical design that delivers consistent and highly highly--controlled electrical performance. RF patterns are compliant to appropriate global regulatory standards giving smooth, reliable deployment and proven performance for years to come, no matter how your network evolves. The antenna mount design allows unencumbered access to the rear of the antenna. So the VHLP(X)2 makes installing components such as radio equipment easier and simplifies the routing of waveguides and cables. The antenna mount allows gradual and smooth adjustment that simplifies alignment, even under the most adverse weather conditions. The innovation in design even extends to the packaging of the antenna. By reconfiguring the shipping carton, we've reduced overall volume. So the VHLP(X)2 is less expensive to ship and to warehouse. And that's good to know, considering the 2 ft (0.6 m) antenna is the most requested size in the industry. Perhaps most importantly, the new VHLP(X)2 is now being manufactured at Andrew locations around the world. Our worldwide manufacturing network means your shipping costs are lower, lead times are shorter, and inventory carrying costs are reduced. In short, the ValuLine Vision Vision VHLP(X)2 may just be the most value value--packed 2 ft (0.6 m) antenna you can buy.
