SBB-EP Series
Band IV/V (UHF) Antenna 470-700 MHz
The SBB-EP series of antennas are slot broadband-elliptical polarized with dual inputs on each slot; low wind load antennas designed as interim, permanent reseve or main antenna.
The SBB-EP is ideally suited to the broadcaster who requires a high performance antenna with frequency agility to allow for both current and future channel operation. Used by a single broadcaster, or multiple broadcasters as a shared antenna, SBB antennas provide unprecedented broadband performance.
