Striking the perfect balance between energy efficiency and RF performance, the RFS Optimizer APXV18 antenna series has been completely redesigned to expertly fulfill the evolving demands of wireless networks. The antennas advanced technical features -including a new dipole design, improved radiating geometry, and a high performance phase shifter network- effectively announce a new, sustainable standard for future RFS base station antenna products. 

RFS' new Optimizer Antennas have been reconceived and built to deliver outstanding performance, reliability and value; they provide one-of-a-kind stability to support an evermore demanding marketplace.

• A unique dipole design assures superior matching across the entire bands.
  
• An enhanced antenna radiating geometry improves front-to-back ratio and cross polarization discrimination, and minimizes the contact between elements to eliminate intermodulation.
  
• A high-performance Phase Shifter Network provides precise control of the USLS suppression and pattern shape across the entire tilt range.
