Axial Force (FA)
Maximum forces exerted on a supporting structure as a result of wind from the most critical direction
for this parameter. The individual maximums specified may not occur simultaneously. All forces are
referenced to the mounting pipe.

signal over an angle twice the 3 dB beamwidth of the co-polarized main beam.
Denotes highest radiation relative to the main beam, at 180 40, across the band. Production
antennas do not exceed rated values by more than 2 dB unless stated otherwise.
For a given frequency band, gain is primarily a function of antenna size. The gain of Andrew
antennas is determined by either gain by comparison or by computer integration of the measured
antenna patterns.
Bands correspond with CCIR recommendations or common allocations used throughout the world.
Other ranges can be accommodated on special order.
Andrew standard packing is suitable for export. Antennas are shipped as standard in totally
recyclable cardboard or wire-bound crates (dependent on product). For your convenience, Andrew
offers heavy duty export packing options.
Radiation patterns determine an antennas ability to discriminate against unwanted signals under
conditions of radio congestion. Radiation patterns are dependent on antenna series, size, and
frequency.
The figure that indicates the proportion of radio waves incident upon the antenna that are rejected as
a ratio of those that are accepted.
Maximum axial forces exerted on support structures by side struts as a result of a 200 km/h (125
mph) wind from the most critical direction and extreme angle permitted. The forces are a component
of, not in addition to, the maximum forces specified above.
Maximum forces exerted on a supporting structure as a result of wind from the most critical direction
for this parameter. The individual maximums specified may not occur simultaneously. All forces are
referenced to the mounting pipe.
Maximum; is the guaranteed Peak Voltage-Standing-Wave-Ratio within the operating band.
The wind speed where the antenna deflection is equal to or less than 0.1 degrees.
Microwave antennas, including mounts and radomes, where applicable, will withstand the
simultaneous wind and ice conditions as specified.
