Dual-Band Antennas for Positive Train Control
RFS is your total-solution, strategic, Positive Train Control (PTC) partner committed to improving safety in the railroad industry. The RFS dual-band yagi and exposed dipole omni antennas provide a high-performance, rugged, and reliable solution for PTC network coverage where both 160 MHz and 220 MHz networks are combined. The 345-109 omni antenna is field adjustable with the ability to generate either omni or offset patterns providing the end user full flexibility for each application. The 390DB yagi antenna provides high gain and is ideal for applications where directivity is required. Its narrow beamwidth and high front-to-back ratio are effective in reducing interference from other systems.
Additionally, RFS provides cables, jumpers, tower components, filter and combining solutions, plus site kitting for streamlined order processing and microwave antenna systems. As a longtime wireless industry leader for communication networks, RFS manufactures products that ensure reliable and cost-effective network performance. With its unique combination of wireless infrastructure technology and experience, plus its firm dedication to railroad safety and the PTC initiative, RFS can help you meet your challenges by 2015.

RFS ClearFill Plenum-Rated Coaxial Cable for In-Building Applications
RFS delivers a cost-effective, in-building solution with its ClearFill plenum-rated air-dielectric coaxial cable, CATVP-rated, with low flame-spread and low-smoke characteristics, it is ideal for use within the building plenum defined as the “environmental air handling space.” This permits use of the cable as part of an in-building Distributed Antenna System (DAS). Plenum-rated cables, tested in accordance with the National Fire Protection Agency (NFPA) testing method 262, have the most stringent flame retardant and smoke-suppressant characteristics. Due to their low attenuation, outstanding heat transfer properties, and temperature-stabilized dielectric materials, RFS plenum-rated cables provide a safe, long-term operating life at high-transmit power levels.

Power TMA's While Providing Basic Performance Monitoring
RFS PDU1912 is a power distribution unit intended for use with RFS' Tower Mount Amplifiers. It provides direct current through the bias-T to power six units of dual-band or single band TMA's. Green LED's near each connector indicate the functionality of the TMA's. If a fault occurs in the TMA, the LED will either change to red or yellow depending on the fault condition as indicated in the specification.
The PDU1912 can be mounted in a standard 19" rack and is one rack unit high. All DC connectors come with mating connectors and the unit includes individual reset switches for each port PDU1912-0
