Andrew Corporation Introduces New Hub and Subscriber Products for Fixed Broadband Wireless Systems.Business Editors ORLAND PARK, Ill.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 10, 2000 Andrew Corporation (NASDAQ NASDAQ in full National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations U.S. market for over-the-counter securities. Established in 1971 by the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD), NASDAQ is an automated quotation system that reports on :ANDW) introduced a new line of hub sector antennas along with a new subscriber transverter for fixed broadband wireless access systems. These products are part of Andrew Corporation's Ultraflex(R)Series of products. The UHS UHS University Health Services UHS Universal Hint System (gamingy) UHS University High School UHS Urbana High School UHS University High School (Australia) UHS Union High School (Ultraflex Hub Sector) antenna series includes three new antennas operating over MDS MDS, n See temporomandibular pain-dysfunction syndrome. MDS 1 Maternal deprivation syndrome, see there 2 Myelodysplastic syndrome, see there , MMDS (Multichannel Multipoint Distribution Service or Microwave Multipoint Distribution Service) A digital wireless transmission system that works in the 2.2-2.4 GHz range. (Microwave Multipoint Distribution Service), and ISM (Industrial Scientific Medical) bands. These high performance antennas are used in fixed broadband wireless hubs and repeater sites where system architectures typically employ cellular-type sectorization techniques used to more efficiently utilize limited available bandwidth. UHS antennas offer superior sidelobe and backlobe suppression. The proprietary technology delivers greater than 30 dB of attenuation Loss of signal power in a transmission. Attenuation The reduction in level of a transmitted quantity as a function of a parameter, usually distance. It is applied mainly to acoustic or electromagnetic waves and is expressed as the ratio of power densities. at all angles outside of the main lobe. Combined with a -3 dB beam width of 30 degrees, their highly directive radiation patterns offer improved protection against co-channel interference from adjacent sectors and cells. UHS antennas can be mounted onto a vertical pipe of 1.9 to 4.5 inches (48 to 115 mm) diameter. The mount allows for fine adjustments of plus or minus 22 degrees in elevation and plus or minus 15 degrees in azimuth azimuth (ăz`əməth), in astronomy, one coordinate in the altazimuth coordinate system. It is the angular distance of a body measured westward along the celestial horizon from the observer's south point. . New Ultraflex(R) subscriber transverter and antenna for fixed broadband wireless access. This product's new "flexible" design offers compatibility with virtually any platform for subscriber to hub communication in the frequency range of 2 to 3.7 GHz, including in-band, MDS, and WCS See Windows CardSpace. return. The new design also offers a more directive antenna, integration of the antenna and transverter, and customer options for both temperature controlled and GPS remote referenced oscillators. The subscriber unit also includes a highly linear power amplifier, low noise receive amplifier, brickwall filtering, phase-coherent common local oscillator, and downstream RF level adjust. The new design offers a high degree of flexibility for custom designs.
