For applications demanding the highest in quality and proven performance for optimum coverage, ERI TRASAR® High Power Transmitting Antennas are the ideal choice.

Flexibility in design, computer aided design tools, and anechoic chamber testing allow us to provide you with custom solutions that meet your specific needs while aiding you to optimize tower design and coverage considerations.

Value and reliability are built into TRASAR antennas. Direct slotted line measurement of antenna VSWR at the input flange ensures very low reflected power and a top quality signal. Lightning protection and internal DC grounding across the internal feed line protect the antenna from lightning damage.
