Beam Iridium Active Antenna Key Features:
Compatible with Beam products and Iridium devices
This Active Antenna is designed to work on all Beam products and any Iridium devices, however requires an approved Beam Active Antenna cable for use in order to manage the power amplification across the RF line to the antenna.
Improves Satellite Connection
The RST740 Anntena helps to improve satellite connection for your Iridium device, even when you used your device inside!
NOTE: Combining an Active Antenna with Standard Cables will damage the Antenna.
Maximum loss is 13.5db with a minimum loss of 13db from satellite device to antenna in total.
