TACTICAL ANTENNAS

For Better Communication Between Tactical Teams

Field operations are demanding situations where communication between tactical teams is vital

to the safety and success of the mission. With input from many field agents, STI-CO® developed

several antenna systems for this specific purpose. The STI-CO® Tactical Antenna series is specific

to the needs of setting up and operating a communications system away from established

facilities --- in hotel rooms, convention centers, sports arenas, hostage or disaster scenes, or even

in open fields. In addition to excellent performance, the antennas are designed to be compact,

lightweight, and easy to deploy or remove.

LOW PROFILE RAIL / TRANSIT ANTENNAS

Use in Demanding Situations Where Whip AntennasCan Break

The STI-CO® rugged low profile line offers a wide variety of antennas that extend no more than 6 inches

above the body of the vehicle for use in harsh environments where longer whip antennas would break.

These rugged antennas are available in a variety of frequencies. They are an excellent solution to vandalism

in high-risk areas and on vehicles frequently exposed to damaging automatic washes. These antennas are

also a good alternative to whip antennas on tall emergency vehicles, such as ambulances and fire equipment,

that are destroyed when entering parking ramps, garages, or canopy covered hospital emergency areas.
